99mTc annexin V imaging of neonatal hypoxic brain injury.
BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE Delayed cell loss in neonates after cerebral hypoxic-ischemic injury (HII) is believed to be a major cause of cerebral palsy. In this study, we used radiolabeled annexin V, a marker of delayed cell loss (apoptosis), to image neonatal rabbits suffering from HII. METHODS Twenty-two neonatal New Zealand White rabbits had ligation of the right common carotid artery with red...
متن کاملRadionuclide Imaging of Apoptosis in Malignancies: Promise and Pitfalls of 99mTc-Hynic-rh-Annexin V Imaging
Radionuclide detection of apoptosis with of (99m)Tc-Hynic-rh-Annexin V scintigraphy is an effective tool for in vivo visualisation and monitoring of apoptosis in various malignant tumour. Early therapy-induced increase of the tumour tracer uptake correlates with favourable outcome, whereas stable or decreased uptake correlates with stable disease or tumour progression. Therefore sequential (99m...
متن کاملSPIO-Annexin V, a potential probe for MRI detection of radiation induced apoptosis
Background: Finding a suitable method for rapid, accurate and reliable estimation of absorbed dose has high priority in management of the radiation exposed persons. Shortly after radiation exposure, apoptosis is a major detriment in proliferative tissues such as the hematopoietic system. Therefore, quantification of apoptosis in these tissues could be useful for rapid estimation of radiation ex...
متن کاملNoninvasive in vivo magnetic resonance imaging of experimental coronary artery lesions in a porcine model.
BACKGROUND The ability to characterize and quantify coronary artery atherosclerotic lesions accurately, reproducibly, and noninvasively may allow the stratification of risk for future acute coronary syndromes and help direct therapeutic management. MRI has been shown to accurately characterize and quantify atherosclerosis; however, because of the combination of cardiac and respiratory motion ar...
متن کاملAssociation between Helicobacter pylori Infection and Atherosclerotic Coronary Artery Disease
Background and Objectives: Cardiovascular disease is the most common cause of death in developed countries. In addition to traditional risk factors for cardiovascular disease, nowadays, accumulating evidence indicates that a variety of infections contribute to pathogenesis of atherosclerosis, (We investigated whether Helicobacter pylori infection is related to Prevalence of coronar...
