Synthesis and Biological Evaluation of <sup>99m</sup>Tc(I) Tricarbonyl Complexes Dual-Targeted at Tumoral Mitochondria

Synthesis and Biological Evaluation of <sup>99m</sup>Tc(I) Tricarbonyl Complexes Dual-Targeted at Tumoral Mitochondria

For effective Auger therapy of cancer, the Auger-electron emitters must be delivered to the tumor cells in close proximity to a radiosensitive cellular target. Nuclear DNA is considered the most relevant target of Auger electrons to have augmented radiotoxic effects and significant cell death. Howev...
