    This study was aimed to develop a glycopeptide (GP) to be used as a carrier for anti-cancer drug delivery. GP was synthesized by conjugating glutamate peptide and chitosan using carbodiimide as a coupling agent. Elemental analysis and capillary electrophoresis confirmed the purity was >95%. GP was labeled with sodium pertechnetate (Na(99m)TcO(4)) for in vitro and in vivo studies. Rhenium-GP was synthesized to support the binding site of (99m)Tc at the glutamate positions 3-5. In vitro cellular uptake of (99m)Tc-GP was performed in breast cancer cells. Cytosol had 60% whereas nucleus had 40% uptake of (99m)Tc-GP. When cancer cells were incubated with glutamate or aspartate, followed by (99m)Tc-GP, there was decreased uptake in cells treated with glutamate but not aspartate. The findings indicated that cellular uptake of (99m)Tc-GP was via glutamate transporters. In addition, (99m)Tc-GP was able to measure uptake differences after cells treated with paclitaxel. Biodistribution and planar imaging were conducted in breast tumor-bearing rats. Biodistribution of (99m)Tc-GP showed increased tumor-to-tissue ratios as a function of time. Planar images confirmed that (99m)Tc-GP could assess tumor uptake changes after paclitaxel treatment. In vitro and in vivo studies indicated that GP could target tumor cells, thus, GP may be a useful carrier for anti-cancer drug delivery.
