Introduction: Due to the interesting pharmacological properties of radiolabeled metal oxine derivatives such as cell internalization, tumor avidity and antiproteosome activity, 111In-tris[8-Hydroxy-2-methylquinoline] (111In-HMQ) was developed in this study. Methods: 111In-HMQ was prepared using 111InCl3 and 8-Hydroxy-2-methylquinoline (HMQ) ...

Neutrophil turnover was studied in the blood and alveoli of normal rabbits. Blood neutrophil turnover was examined by two different methods. In the first method, donor rabbit neutrophils were labeled in vivo by injecting tritium-labeled thymidine intravenously. After 72 h recipient rabbits received blood from the donors. The decline of the specific radioactivity of blood neutrophils was used to...

Intravascular mechanical support has been proposed as a solution to the frequent occurrence of vascular narrowing and occlusion after transluminal balloon angioplasty or surgical endarterectomy. Although several endovascular stents are currently in clinical use for angioplasty of larger vessels, acute thrombosis is a troublesome complication of their use with coronary angioplasty. To study thro...
