Objective(s): Our previous study showed that a newly designed tracer radioiodinated 6-(3-morpholinopropoxy)-7-ethoxy-4-(3'-iodophenoxy)quinazoline ([125I]PYK) is promising for the evaluation of the epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) status and prediction of gefitinib treatment of non-small cell lung cancer. EGFR is over-expressed and mutated also in glioblastoma. In the present study, the ...

background: one of the key techniques for the preparation of 125i seeds is adsorption of 125i onto silver bits coated by palladium (pd). carriers played an important role in the adsorption of 125i on palladium. ki is used as a carrier for fixing of 125i onto silver wire bits coated with palladium. materials and methods: three procedures ki, koh, nh4oh were investigated for adsorption of 125i ac...

objectives this study examined 125i concentrations in the edible parts of five types of plants from different locations on farms with a similar climate. near zahedan, iran. background radioiodine 125i is an environmental contaminant that humans may consume in edible plants. the characteristics of 125i in plants are poorly understood. materials and methods the experiments used a mini-column appr...

Neuropeptide Y (NPY) receptors (nomenclature as agreed by the NC-IUPHAR Subcommittee on Receptors [158]) are activated endogenous peptides neuropeptide Y, Y-(3-36), peptide YY, PYY-(3-36) and pancreatic polypeptide (PP). The receptor originally identified Y3 has been CXCR4 chemokine recepter (originally named LESTR, [139]). y6 is a functional gene product in mouse, absent rat, but contains fram...

ObjectivesDelta-like 1 homolog (DLK1) is a non-canonical Notch ligand known to be expressed in several cancers but whose role lung cancer not yet fully understood. We sought confirm DLK1 expression small-cell (SCLC) and non-small-cell (NSCLC), examine DLK1’s clinical significance. Furthermore, we examined the possible utility of as novel target radioimmunotherapy (RIT).MethodsWe retrospectively...

BACKGROUND It has been debated whether cardiovascular screening of athletes creates negative psychological reactions in those being screened. Neither the athletes' level of distress towards, nor their opinion about screening has actually been examined. Therefore, the aim of this study was to assess the level of distress among Norwegian elite male football players and their experiences of screen...

This study aimed to prepare a novel radiopharmaceutical for the detection of brain disorders at early stages in susceptible patients.Promazine hydrochloride was labeled with 125I by direct electrophilic substitution reaction high labeling yields 92.6 ± 3.24 %. The yield and vitro stability 125I-promazine were determined paper electrophoresis, chromatography (PC) High performance liquid (HPLC). ...

During the 1960s and 1970s there was an intense debate on the observed inverse relationship between farm size and per hectare agricultural productivity in India. It was subsequently argued that the higher productivity of smallholdings would disappear with the adoption of superior technology, modernisation and growth in general. However, close to half a century later, National Sample Survey data...
