RESUMO
The partition coefficients (log P) of theoretically possible alkyliodinated iminodiacetic acid (IDA) derivatives and commercial IDA derivatives were calculated using two computer programs: ChemSketch Log P and ChemOffice Ultra. Newly synthesized ligands (DIETHYLIODIDA and DIISOPROPYLIODIDA) with the highest calculated log P were labeled with technetium-99m. The biodistribution and the influence of bilirubin on their biokinetics were investigated in rats and compared to corresponding results for commercial (99m)Tc-BROMIDA. Log P of (99m)Tc-complexes of synthesized ligands were determined experimentally as well as the protein binding. In comparison to (99m)Tc-BROMIDA, (99m)Tc-DIETHYLIODIDA has: (a) better biliary excretion (2.76±0.15%ID/g versus 1.83±0.10%ID/g); (b) faster hepatic clearance (2.90±0.21%ID/g versus 7.47±0.70%ID/g) and decreased biliary excretion (for 14% versus 22%) in conditions of hyperbilirubinemia after 15min. It is proved that (99m)Tc-DIISOPROPYLIODIDA has a prolonged hepatic transit time and decreased biliary excretion.
