Minigastrin
Minigastrin (also mini gastrin) is a form of gastrin. Its sequence is H-Leu-Glu-Glu-Glu-Glu-Glu-Ala-Tyr-Gly-Trp-Met-Asp-Phe-NH2.[1]

Minigastrin is a potential therapeutic agent for thyroid carcinoma by targeting cancer-promoting cholecystokinin receptors.[2]
Applications
Peptide Receptor Radionuclide Therapy (PRRT)
A radioactively labeled analogue of minigastrin, PP-F11, conjugated with NOTA, DOTA, or NODAGA, was studied to view the effects they have on peptide receptor radionuclide therapy (PRRT) and cancer cell tracing.[3] When mice with CCK2 tumors were injected with 64Cu-labeled DOTA-PP-F11, NOTA-PP-F11, and NODAGA-PP-F11, the mice labeled with NOTA displayed a tumor uptake of 7.20 ± 0.44% ID/g and a high tumor-to-blood ratio.[4] Further studies are being investigated on how to reduce the background levels to obtain clearer images.
The inhibition of rapamycin complex 1 improves the tumor uptake of radioactively labeled minigastrin. Treatment of A431/CCKBR tumor cells were assessed with DOTA-PP-F11N.[5] This treatment in combination with RAD001 in mice, resulted in an average size tumor reduction of about 0.3 cm³ in comparison to the control group which had an average tumor size of 0.97 cm³.[6] The treatment group also had a higher survival rate where the control group median life span was 19.5 days and the group that received treatment had an average life span of 43 days.[7]
