POLYPEPTIDES, CYCLIC POLYPEPTIDES AND PHARMACEUTICAL COMPRISING THEREOF FOR NON INVASIVE SPECIFIC IMAGING OF FIBROSIS

摘要

The present invention relates to diagnostic imaging and in particular to the diagnostic imaging of fibrosis. More particularly, the present invention provides a polypeptides, cyclic polypeptides and pharmaceutical compositions suitable for the non-invasive visualization of fibrosis. The polypeptide of the invention may comprise an amino acid sequence consisting of: X1-X2-M-H-G-L-X7-L-X9-X10-D-E wherein amino acid X1 is R, F or P; amino acid X2 is F or V; amino acid X7 is Q, H or L; amino acid X9 is W or G and amino acid X10 is A or D.
