bioactive natural products having potential biomedical applications, many of which differ from those of terrestrial organisms in both chemical structures and peculiarities of biological actions. Several marine natural products have become the source of potentially novel chemical leads for the ongoing global search of therapeutic agents for the treatment of multiple disease categories. Majority ...

TAKADA, G., ONODERA, II. and TADA, K. Tissue Distribution of Unentrapped or Liposome-Entrapped 1311-Labeled f3-Galactosidase Injected into Rats. Tohoku J. exp. Med., 1981, 134 (2), 103-114 Either unentrapped (free) or liposomeentrapped 131I-labeled 9-galactosidase was injected into rats from tail veins. Tissue distribution and intracellular localization of the radioactivity of both sources were...

UNLABELLED As salivary glands concentrate radioiodine the radiation injury associated with 131I-therapy may result in sialoadenitis and xerostoma leading to a lasting impaired quality of life. Recently we reported about prostaglandin concentration changes as biochemical markers for radiation injury. Isoprostanes, a new family of prostaglandin-like compounds, have been demonstrated to be reliabl...

Radioactive iodine (1311) has a part to play in the therapy of two thyroid disorders, carcinoma and thyrotoxicosis, by virtue of the selective concentration of it which occurs in functioning thyroid cells. The latter represent the only significant site of concentration of the iodide ion in the body, this occurring because of the necessity to incorporate iodine into the molecule of the thyroid h...
