ABSTRACT
Objective:To produce 161Tb from enriched 160Gd 2O 3 isotope-enriched target material and realize domestic production of the novel medical isotope 161Tb. Methods:The 160Gd 2O 3 isotope-enriched target material was irradiated with neutrons by the China Mianyang Research Reactor (CMRR). The no-carrier-added 161Tb product was obtained after the processes of target broken, sample dissolution, separation and purification with lanthanide (LN) resin and solution replacement with diglycolamide (DGA) column. Various key indicators such as γ spectral purity, metal impurity content, specific activity, radiochemical purity, and radioactive concentration were used to conduct the quality inspection and the control of 161Tb products. Results:161TbCl 3 of 33.4 GBq was obtained in a single time with the radioactive concentration of 16.8 GBq/ml, nuclear purity more than 99.9%, and radiochemical purity of 99.2%. Metal impurity content was met the established standards, with the specific activity of 6.02×10 17 Bq/mol. The radiochemical purities of 161Tb labeling with 1, 4, 7, 10-tetraazacyclododecane-1, 4, 7, 10-tetraacetic acid- D-Phe1-Tyr3-Thr8-octreotide (DOTATATE) after 0 and 72 h were 100% and 95.8% respectively. Conclusion:The preparation of no-carrier-added 161Tb by using LN resin has the advantages of high separation performance and high sample loading, which has great significance in the field of medical isotope preparation and lays a good nuclide guarantee for the research and development of domestic 161Tb-labeled drugs.
ABSTRACT
Objective:To synthesize 177Lu-prostate-specific membrane antigen (PSMA)-617 with domestic 177Lu (made in China), and explore its optimal labeling condition, biodistribution, stability, and safety. Methods:177Lu-PSMA-617 was prepared with domestic 177Lu by a manual method. The optimal labeling condition, radiochemical purity, stability ( in vivo and in vitro), lipid-water partition coefficient, and plasma protein binding rate were determined. The uptake rate of 177Lu-PSMA-617 was evaluated by using 22RV1 cells. Biodistribution and SPECT/CT imaging were performed on normal mice with imported 177Lu-PSMA-617 as control group. The blood routine test was performed to evaluate the safety. Results:The best labeling result of domestic 177Lu-PSMA-617 can be obtained under the following conditions: pH=4.5, 100 ℃ for 30 min. And the radiochemical purity was ≥99%. The product was stable in vivo and in vitro, with the radiochemical purity >95% in 72 h. The plasma protein binding rate was (35.3±5.3)%, the lipid-water partition coefficient was -2.27±0.06, and the specific uptake rate of domestic 177Lu-PSMA-617 by 22RV1 cells reached the highest in 1 h ((7.58±0.84)%), which was slightly lower than the imported 177Lu-PSMA-617 ((7.86±0.96)%), but there was no significant difference between them ( t=-0.439, P>0.05). The distribution and SPECT/CT imaging of normal mice showed that domestic and imported 177Lu-PSMA-617 in blood were cleared quite fast, and both of them were excreted mainly through the kidneys. No obvious adverse reactions were found in the toxicity test of domestic and imported 177Lu-PSMA-617. There was no obvious abnormality in blood routine and liver and kidney metabolism. Conclusion:The domestic 177Lu-PSMA-617 has many advantages, such as qualified quality control, good biological properties and safety, which support its potential application value in diagnosis of prostatic neoplasms.
ABSTRACT
Objective To understand the malaria epidemic situation in Chengdu City,so as to provide the evidence for effec-tively carrying out the malaria elimination work. Methods The data of imported malaria in Chengdu City from 2012 to 2016 were collected from the Disease Surveillance Information Reporting System of Chinese Center for Disease Control and Prevention and analyzed respectively. Results A total of 240 imported malaria cases were reported in Chengdu City from 2012 to 2016. In de-tail,68.75%of the cases were falciparum malaria cases,20.41%were vivax malaria cases,2.50%were quartan malaria cases, 6.25%were ovale malaria cases,and 2.08%were mixed Plasmodium infections. Among them three patients died,with a mortali-ty of 1.25%. All of the cases were infected overseas,among which 224 patients returned from Africa and 16 patients from South-east Asia. The annual average morbidity was 0.28/100000,and there was a significantly difference among annual average mor-bidities(χ2=23.87,P0.05). Conclusion The number of overseas imported malaria in Chengdu City increases year by year. The effective measures to control the overseas imported malaria should be strengthened to consolidate the achievements of malar-ia elimination.
ABSTRACT
Objective To investigate the effect of antisense oligonucleofide(PCNA ASON)and vascuiar endothelial growth factor (VEGF) gene traneduction on restenosis after balloon angiopasty.Memods chinese rabbits were randomly divided into control group(I),PCNA ASON(II),VEGF only (Ⅲ),PCNA ASON+VEGF(Ⅳ)groups.Each group included 7 rabbits.Restenosis wasevaluated by pathology immunohistochemistry and Western-blotting for the expression of PCNA,and the depth and area oftunica media and tunicca intima were measured. Results All rabbits experienced restenosis on different severities,especially in control group.Lesions were less severe in PCNA ASON and VEGF groups than in controls.The proliferation of smooth muscle and intima significantly ameliorated in PCNA ASON and VEGF combination group that in PCNA ASON or VEGF groups(P<0.01).But the difference between the PCNA ASON and VEGF group was not significant(P>0.7). Conclusion PCNA ASON and VEGF gene transductionn are effective in preventing restenosis after balloon angioplasty caused vessel injury in rabbits.
