abstract

introduction: cardiovascular disease is the major cause of morbidity and mortality in developing and developed countries. rapid diagnosis of the thrombosis can be an essential step in management of the stroke. methods: in this work a recently developed radiolabeled streptokinase (stp) tracer was evaluated in an animal thrombotic model using spect imaging and biodistribution studies. locally labeled [67ga]-streptokinase was checked by itlc, hplc and sds-page experiments to check the tracer integrity and purity. the biodistribution studies were performed in thrombotic femoral vein of rats using tissue counting and preliminary spect studies, respectively (up to 2 h). results: [67ga]-streptokinase prepared with suitable radiochemical purity (hplc >95%, itlc >99%) was administered to fecl3 induced thrombotic rats and the percentage of injected dose per gram of tissue (id/g%) as well as the spect images demonstrated the good specific binding of the tracer in thrombotic clots located in heart and aorta 2 hours post injection.conclusion: [67ga]-dtpa-stp can be a suitable probe for imaging of thrombosis in cardiovascular diseases. ga-68 labeled stp has the potential to be an alternative superior labeled compound due to positron emission properties for pet studies as well as appropriate physical half life.

Preparation and quality control of radiolabeled streptokinase for Thrombosis imaging

Background: In order to diagnose the site of thrombi, radiolabeled streptokinase can be prepared. The radiolabeled compound can be used in imaging of thrombi in many cardiovascular diseases. Materials and Methods: Streptokinase was successively labeled with [67Ga]-gallium chloride using cyclic DTPA-dianhydride. The conjugation with DTPA was optimized for concentration, time and temperature foll...

Radiolabeled Nanoparticles for Molecular Imaging

Molecular imaging (MI) comprises non-invasive monitoring of functional and spatiotemporal processes at molecular and cellular levels in humans and other living systems. In contrast to conventional diagnostic imaging, MI seeks to probe the molecular abnormalities that are the basis of disease rather than capture the images of the end effects of the molecular alterations. Imaging techniques such ...
