[Display omitted] We report an improved series of ligands targeting prostate specific membrane antigen (PSMA). The new compounds were designed by the introduction of changes in the structure of the aromatic fragment at ε-nitrogen atom of lysine that resulted in improved biological parameters. Some o...
