ABSTRACT
Among clinically used radiopharmaceuticals, iodine-123 labeled metaiodobenzylguanidine ([123I]mIBG) serves for diagnosing neuroendocrine tumors and obtaining images of myocardial sympathetic innervation. mIBG, a structural analogue of norepinephrine (NE), a neurotransmitter acting in peripheral and central nerves, follows a pathway similar to NE, transmitting signals through the NE transporter (NET) located at synaptic terminals. It moves through the body without decomposing, enabling noninvasive image evaluation. In this study, we aimed to quantify [123I]mIBG uptake in the adrenal glands using small animal single-photon emission computed tomography/computed tomography (SPECT/CT) images post [123I]mIBG administration. We investigated the possibility of assessing the effectiveness of ß-adrenergic receptor blockers by quantifying SPECT/CT images and biodistribution results to determine the degree of [123I]mIBG uptake in the adrenal glands treated with labetalol, a known ß-adrenergic receptor blocker. Upon intravenous administration of [123I]mIBG to mice, SPECT/CT images were acquired over time to confirm the in vivo distribution pattern, revealing a clear uptake in the adrenal glands. Labetalol inhibited the uptake of [123I]mIBG in cell lines expressing NET. A decrease in [123I]mIBG uptake in the adrenal glands was observed in the labetalol-treated group compared with the normal group through SPECT/CT imaging and biodistribution studies. These results demonstrate that SPECT/CT imaging with [123I]mIBG could be applicable for evaluating the preclinical efficacy of new antihypertensive drug candidates such as labetalol, a ß-adrenergic receptor blocker.
