چکیده

Various techniques for detection of blood platelets in tissue section were evaluated in an incremental air embolism model of ischemia in order to further investigate the accumulation of platelets in brains subjected to cell-damaging ischemia. The experimental animals were dogs anesthetized with alpha-chloralose. A new autoradiographic technique was devised that allows precise localization of 111Indium-labeled platelets in brain sections. The technique is described in detail along with some effects of the label on platelet function and behavior. The technique can be performed in conjunction with 14C-iodoantipyrine autoradiographic measurement of blood flow without causing mutual interference or other forms of interaction. This permits the simultaneous investigation of local blood flow and deposition of platelets.

Autoradiographic observations of the induced vascular injuries by arachidonic acid in rabbit's brain and lung...using 111In-oxine labeled platelets

Autoradiography using 1111n-oxine labeled autologous platelets was performed to observe the behavior of platelets in induced vascular injury by activated platelets in rabbit's brain and lung. Cerebrovascular injuries were induced by injection of arachidonic acid (AA) (0.7 mg/kg) into right internal carotid artery. Fourteen animals were pretreated with antiplatelet drug, ti clopidine (200 mg/kg)...

Transient platelet accumulation in the rat brain after common carotid artery thrombosis. An 111In-labeled platelet study.

BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE Thromboembolic events are a major cause of ischemic stroke. To obtain evidence for platelet embolization after cerebrovascular injury, the accumulation of indium-labeled platelets was documented after photothrombosis of the rat common carotid artery. METHODS Heterologous blood was collected from donor rats, and the isolated platelets were labeled with 111In-tropolone. L...

Construction Details of an Autoradiographic-Based Rat Brain Phantom for Emission Tomography

A digital brain phantom was created from rat brain autoradiographic (AR) data for use in emission computed tomography studies. The animal tissue was radio-labeled with [C]-2-deoxyglucose, a functional analog of the PET agent [F]-fluoro-deoxyglucose. Following sacrifice of the animal, serial tissue sections were cut at 20 m thickness, digitized, and calibrated to represent the ground truth 2D re...

Autoradiographic localization of muscarinic cholinergic receptors in rat brainstem.

We have localized muscarinic cholinergic receptors in the rat brainstem by a light microscopic autoradiographic method. Initially, we examined the kinetics and specificity of the binding of radiolabeled quinuclidinyl benzilate ([3H]QNB) in slide-mounted, frozen tissue sections to determine that we were labeling the muscarinic cholinergic receptors as they had been described previously in bioche...

A low temperature embedding and section registration strategy for 3D image reconstruction of the rat brain from autoradiographic sections.

In studies on animal models of human brain pathologies, three-dimensional reconstruction from histological sections is particularly useful when assessing the morphologic, functional and biochemical changes induced by pathology. It allows assessing lesion heterogeneity in planes different from the cutting plane and allows correlating the histology with images obtained in vivo, such as by means o...
