Thorotrast toxicity: the safety of gadolinium compounds.
In this issue of the Netherlands Journal of Medicine, Kampen et al. describe a patient with a hepatic angiosarcoma resulting from exposure to Thorotrast. Thorotrast was developed in 1928 and used as a radiocontrast agent in the period 1930 to 1960. Thorotrast is a colloidal solution containing the naturally occurring radionuclide Thorium.

متن کاملGadolinium toxicity: Iron and ferroportin as central targets.
Gadolinium-based magnetic resonance (MR) contrast agents (GBCM) causes a devastating systemic fibrosing illness, nephrogenic systemic fibrosis (NSF), in patients with reduced kidney function. GBCM targets iron-recycling CD163- and ferroportin-expressing macrophages to release labile iron that mediates gadolinium toxicity and NSF. GBCA might similarly target iron-rich, ferroportin-expressing str...
