[ 1 ] - Preparation and quality control of 177Lu-chitosan for radiosynovectomy

Introduction: Rheumatoid arthritis (RA) is the most common autoimmune disease, leading to the destruction of the joints and causing pain, disability, and immobility in the patients. Radiosynovectomy (RSV) has been applied as an effective treatment for the patients with resistant synovitis after failure of long-term pharmacotherapy and intra-articular steroid injection for more than 50 years. Se...

[ 2 ] - Radiosynthesis of 191Os-2-acetylpyridine thiosemicarbazone complex, as an in vivo therapeutic radionuclide generator

Introduction: Due to the anti-proliferative properties of platinum group-thiosemicarbazone complexes, the production of 191Os-labeled 2-acetyl pyridine 4-N-methylthiosemicarbazone (191Os-APMTS) was investigated. Methods: [191Osmium (T½= 15.4d) was produced via the 190Os(n,γ)191Os nuclear reaction using enriched target irradiated...

[ 3 ] - Preparation and quality control of scandium-46 bleomycin as a possible therapeutic agent

Introduction: Due to interesting therapeutic properties of 46Sc and antineoblastic antibiotic, bleomycin (BLM), 46Sc-bleomycin (46Sc-BLM) was developed as a possible therapeutic compound. Methods: In this work, Sc-46 chloride was obtained by thermal neutron flux (4 × 1013 n.cm-2.s-1) of natural metallic scandium sample followed ...

[ 4 ] - Preclinical evaluation of 68Ga-MAA from commercial available 99mTc-MAA kit

99mTc-Macroaggregated Albumin (99mTc-MAA) has been used as a perfusion agent. This study described development of the 68Ga-MAA via commercially available kits from Pars-Isotopes Company as a 99mTc-MAA kit. 68Ge/68Ga generator was eluted with suprapure HCl (0.6 M, 6 mL) in 0.5 mL fractions. The two fractions with the highest 68GaCl3 activity were generally used for labeling purposes. After label...

[ 6 ] - Histological assessment of intera articular injection of 90Y- hydroxyapatite radiocolloid in enrofloxacin induced rheumatoid arthritis in rat models

Histological assessment of intera articular injection of 90Y- hydroxyapatite radiocolloid in enrofloxacin induced rheumatoid arthritis in rat models   Introduction: Rheumatoid arthritis (RA) is one of the most common and disabling diseases in societies that causes chronic synovial inflammation and joint damages. Several pharmaceutical and non-pharmaceutical treatments of RA have been developed...

[ 7 ] - Evaluation of [18F]FPTT Molecular structure and its binding to progesterone receptor (PR) for PET scan of breast cancer FPTT Molecular structure and its binding to progesterone receptor (PR) for PET scan of breast cancer

Breast cancer is a complicated disease that it is accompanied by different symptoms. Diagnosis of this disease is performed by various techniques. Using Radiopharmaceuticals is a new method to diagnose the said tumors. [18F]-FPTT is one of these nuclear medicines for detection of breast cancer. It seems that the binding of the title radiopharmaceutical to the progesterone receptor is...

[ 8 ] - Preclinical study of a new 177Lu-labeled somatostatin receptor antagonist in HT-29 human colorectal cancer cells

Objective(s): Somatostatin receptor-positive neuroendocrine tumors have been targeted using various peptide analogs radiolabeled with therapeutic radionuclides for years. The better biomedical properties of radioantagonists as higher tumor uptake make these radioligands more attractive than agonists for somatostatin receptor-targeted radionuclide therapy. In this study...
