چکیده

Pentavalent technetium-99m dimercaptosuccinic acid ((99m)Tc-(V)DMSA) is a tumor-seeking agent which was introduced to evaluate, image, and manage many types of cancers. In this review, the beginning of, and the most recent applications of using this agent was appraised. The relation with tumor cell detection and proliferation was reported and several mechanisms of uptake of (99m)Tc-(V)DMSA in tumor cells are described.

99mTc-DMSA (V) in detection of metastases of medullary thyroid carcinoma

Introduction: Medullary thyroid carcinoma (MTC) is a rare thyroid cancer secreting calcitonin (CT) which is the most sensitive and specific tumor marker for MTC. This type of thyroid cancer is able to metastasize to different body areas including regional lymph nodes, lungs, liver and bone. The aim of this study was to assess the sensitivity and specificity of [99mTc-DMSA (V)] whole body ...

Assessment of Tracer 99mTc(V)-DMSA Uptake as a Measure of Tumor Cell Proliferation In Vitro

PURPOSE To examine whether (99m)Tc(V)-DMSA could be used as a non-invasive measure of cancer cell proliferation. METHODS Human breast cancer MCF-7, MDA-MB-231 and pII, and prostate cancer PC-3 cell lines were grown to 30, 50 and 100% confluency and pulsed with (99m)Tc(V)-DMSA in media for 60 min at 37°C. DNA synthesis was analysed by quantification of the S phase using flow cytometry, [methyl...

99mTc-labeled field bean protease inhibitor can function as an efficient tumor detecting agent.

Purified field bean protease inhibitor (FBPI) was labeled with 99mTcO4- to ascertain its ability to locate tumors in tumor-bearing rat models. The labeling was done with Sn2+ as a reducing agent and the yield was 95%. It was stable for 2 hr at ambient temperature. The biodistribution study of the intravenously injected radiolabeled FBPI in normal Wistar rats at various time intervals showed a r...

Comparison of chromatographic methods for quality control of DMSA complexes with 99mTc and 188Re at (III) and (V) oxidation states.

BACKGROUND The reliable method for determination of identity and radiochemical purity (RCP) is of great importance in radiopharmaceutical development. This is especially relevant when more than one form of radiometal/ligand complex can be formed during radiolabelling, such as complexes of 99mTc or 188Re with meso-2,3-dimercaptosuccinic acid (DMSA), where depending on the pH, metal can occur eit...
