چکیده

McGinty and Sharp (1) demonstrated that the thyroid glands of rats treated with propylthiouracil retained the ability to concentrate iodide ion but failed to bind the iodine in an organic form. VanderLaan and VanderLaan (2) and Stanley and Astwood (3) showed also that thyroidal iodide, "trapped" under the influence of the antithyroid drugs, could be rapidly discharged from the gland by the administration of thiocyanate ion. Iodine accumulation by the thyroid has therefore been considered a two-step function; the first is concerned with the concentration (trapping) of iodide at a level higher than that in the circulating plasma, while the second, in itself a complicated process composed of several chemical stages, is represented by organic binding of the trapped iodide. Several authors have inquired into the kinetics of thyroidal iodide trapping and binding (4-6). On the assumption that equilibration of plasma and thyroidal inorganic iodide131 (iodide trapping) is instantaneous following intravenous administration of 1131, Ingbar (4, 5) calculated that thyroidal binding of trapped iodide proceeded at average rates of 1% per cent per minute in euthyroid subjects and 6% per cent per minute in patients with Graves' disease. Wollman (6) assumed that the plasma iodide131 concentration remained constant or decreased at a single exponential rate and considered the sequelae of several theoretical alternatives for the relative rates of trapping and binding. In the present study an analysis is presented which permits evaluation of the rates of trapping and binding from observed data without assumptions regarding either process or restrictions in the behaviour of the plasma iodide131 concentration. The results of the experimental investigations indicate an extremely rapid binding of trapped iodide in the untreated gland and lead to the conclusion that trapping rather than binding is the rate-limiting step of thyroidal iodine accumulation.

Using starch powder for the decontamination of I-131 in isolation rooms

Introduction: Various iodine isotopes are undergoing radioactive decay except Iodine-127 (I-127. Iodine I-131 is unsealed radioactive material used in nuclear medicine for both diagnostic and therapeutic procedures in Royal Hospital since 2006. In radiotoxic classification, I-131 is in group 2 element. I-131 is highly reactive element due to its volatilization nature. Currently...

BioPhotonics workstation: a versatile setup for simultaneous optical manipulation, heat stress, and intracellular pH measurements of a live yeast cell.

In this study we have modified the BioPhotonics workstation (BWS), which allows for using long working distance objective for optical trapping, to include traditional epi-fluorescence microscopy, using the trapping objectives. We have also added temperature regulation of sample stage, allowing for fast temperature variations while trapping. Using this modified BWS setup, we investigated the int...

Fragmentations observed in the reactions of α-methoxy-γ-alkoxyalkyl iodide substrates with super-electron-donors derived from 4-DMAP and N-methylbenzimidazole.

Reactions of super-electron-donors (SEDs) derived from 4-dimethylaminopyridine and from N-methylbenzimidazole with α-methoxy-γ-alkoxyalkyl iodides lead to liberation of the γ-alkoxy groups as their alcohols. This is consistent with generation of alkyl radicals from the alkyl halide precursors, and trapping of these radicals by the radical-cation of the SED, followed by a heterolytic fragmentation.

Congenital Hypothyroidism Caused by a PAX8 Gene Mutation Manifested as Sodium/Iodide Symporter Gene Defect

Loss-of-function mutations of the PAX8 gene are considered to mainly cause congenital hypothyroidism (CH) due to thyroid hypoplasia. However, some patients with PAX8 mutation have demonstrated a normal-sized thyroid gland. Here we report a CH patient caused by a PAX8 mutation, which manifested as iodide transport defect (ITD). Hypothyroidism was detected by neonatal screening and L-thyroxine re...
