AG Targetchemie (Dr. Andreas Faust)

In unseren chemischen und radiochemischen Laboren entwickeln wir neue Tracer für die diagnostische molekulare Bildgebung mittels Positronen-Emissions-Tomographie (PET), Einzelphotonen-Emissions-Tomographie (SPECT), optischer sowie photoakustischer Bildgebung. Zum einen konzentrieren wir uns auf spezifische Liganden für die Alarmine S100A8/S100A9, zum anderen arbeiten wir an bakterienspezifischen Tracern auf der Basis von komplexen Kohlenhydraten oder Siderophoren. Dabei kommen diverse kurzlebige Nuklide, wie der Positronen-Emitter Fluor-18 oder der Gamma-Emitter Technetium-99m zum Einsatz. Auch an der Entwicklung von Absorbern für eine verbesserte photoakustische Bildgebung wird in unserer Arbeitsgruppe gearbeitet.

    Immune-Image

    In diesem Projekt entwickeln wir Methoden, mit denen Immunzellen vor, während und nach einer Immunbehandlung beobachtet werden können. Wir sehen uns die Vorgänge zunächst in Krankheitsmodellen bei Tieren an – mit dem Ziel, die Ergebnisse und Methoden zeitnah auf Patienten zu übertragen und letztendlich Immuntherapien bei Krankheiten wie Krebs oder Entzündungen „bildgesteuert“ zu verbessern.

    Targeting of S100A8/A9 for imaging of inflammatory disorders

    In our CRC-project A03 “Targeting of S100A8/A9 for imaging of inflammatory disorders” we create a new S100 alarmin-based imaging toolset to monitor inflammatory responses with respect to their spatial location and temporal dynamics at various scales in living organisms. Activated monocytes and granulocytes are key to inflammatory diseases and release the alarmin S100A8/A9 in high concentrations, promoting sterile as well as infectious inflammatory processes.

    Metabolic targeting of bacteria through complex carbohydrates

    Life-threatening bacterial infections often have a non-specific clinical presentation. We design radiolabeled specific imaging probes based on oligosaccharides which are selectively taken up by prokaryotes and thereby optimize uptake and trapping efficiency in bacteria and metabolic stability in the blood. This will prepare for a transfer of our new bacteria tracers to future clinical diagnostics.
