Laser photolysis and fluorescence studies on pyrene-thiazide and pyrene-diazoxide systems.

The laser photolysis studies on pyrene, pyrene-thiazides and pyrene-diazoxide systems in acetonitrile revealed that thiazides and diazoxide can scavenge the photoejected electron. It was found that the pyrene fluorescence is quenched by the present diuretics and related compounds and both static and dynamic quenching constants were obtained. Thiazides quench the fluorescence through both static and dynamic mechanism, while the small static quenching constant and no lifetime shortening of pyrene were observed in the case of diazoxide quencher. This difference may correspond to the difference of their diuretic activity.

[Study on tumor affinity of technetium-99m-labeled radiopharmaceuticals. (1) 99mTc-pertechnetate, 99mTc-human serum albumin, and 99mTc-trasylol].

This paper describes biologic distributions, sequential images and macroautoradiograms of 99mTcO4 (pertechnetate), 99mTc-Sn-HSA (human serum albumin) and 99mTc-Sn-TSL (trasylol) in tumor-bearing mice as the first report on tumor affinity of 99mTc-labeled radiopharmaceutical. (1) Maximum tumor concentration (% administered dose/g of tissue weight) of 99mTcO4, 99mTc-HSA and 99mTc-TSL in Ehrlich's tumor-bearing mice resulted in 2.03+/-0.57 at 1 hr, 4.02+/-0.19 at 3 hr and 1.97+/-0.31 at 1 hr respectively. (2) However, tumor to blood concentration ratio of 99mTc-HSA was lowest among them. (3) The corrected tumor accumulation (% 100g dose/g of tissue wt.=% dose/% body weight) of 99mTc-TSL to Ehrlich's tumor in mouse was not different from that of Yoshida's sarcoma in rat, on the contrary to our expectation that the tumor concentration of 99mTc-TSL in them might be different due to differency of the tissue fibrinolytic activity between the respective tumors. (4) Sequential images of the implanted tumor in mouse was best positively delineated with 99mTc-HSA. (5) Macroautoradiograms of Ehrlich's tumor with 99mTcO4, 99mTc-HSA and 99mTc-TSL demonstrated the following findings: all of them were not only accumulated markedly into the tumor cells which were shown as basophilic tissue with Hämatoxylin-Eosin staining but also accumulated around the tumor tissue and on the interstitial tissue which were stained as eosinophilic tissue with the above same staining.

[Study on tumor affinity of technetium-99m-labeled radiopharmaceuticals. (2) 99mTc-Sn-diphosphonate (99mTc-EHDP), 99mTc-Sn-dimercaptosuccinic acid (99mTc-DMSA), and 99mTc-Sn-diethyl stilbestrol diphosphate (99mTc-DSDP)].

The authors have examined the tumor affinity of various 99mTc-labelled radiopharmaceuticals to Ehrlich's tumor for the purpose of delineating positively human malignant neoplasm. This paper includes biologic distributions of 99mTc-Sn-diphosphonate (99mTc-EHDP), 99mTc-Sn-dimercaptosuccinic acid (99mTc-DMSA) and 99mTc-Sn-diethyl stilbestrol diphosphate (99mTc-DSDP, 99mTc-Honvan) as the second report on the tumor affinity to the Ehrlich-bearing mice. (a) Tumor concentration of 99mTc-EHDP was lowest and the positive delineation of implanted tumor with 99mTc-EHDP was poorest in sequential images, though the active accumulation to some soft tissue maglinant neoplasms, the breast cancer and the thyroid cancer, has been reported. (b) Tumor concentration and tumor to blood ratio of 99mTc-DMSA were not so high on the contrary of our expectation that 197Hg-DMSA may show the high tumor concentration and the high tumor to blood ratio like 197Hg chlormerodrin as same renal scanning radiopharmaceuticals. (c) Tumor concentration of 99mTc-DSDP was highest. Tumor to blood concentration ratio, however, was lower than that of the above mentioned radiopharmaceuticals but tumor to liver ratio and/or tumor to lung ratio was over 1.0 at the earlier time. Biologic distribution of 99mTc-DSDP was similar to that of 32P labeled DSDP and then it is presumed that 99mTc is labeled at phosphate ester of DSDP which is dephospholytated immediately by phospholylase in vivo following the intravenous injection. Therefore, it may be assumed that the accumulation mechanism of 99mTc-DSDP to Ehrlich's tumor is related to the phospholylase activity in neoplasms but is not known precisely.

[Affinity of the elements in group VI of the periodic table to tumors and organs].

In order to investigate the tumor affinity radioisotopes, chromium (51Cr), molybdenum (99Mo), tungsten (181W), selenium (75Se) and tellurium (127mTe)--the elements of group VI in the periodic table--were examined, using the rats which were subcutaneously transplanted with Yoshida sarcoma. Seven preprarations, sodium chromate (Na251CrO4), chromium chloride (51CrCl3), normal ammonium molybdate ((NH4)299MoO7), sodium tungstate (Na2181WO4), sodium selenate (Na275SeO4), sodium selenite (Na275SeO3) and tellurous acid (H2127mTeO3) were injected intravenously to each group of tumor bearing rats. These rats were sacrificed at various periods after injection of each preparation: 3 hours, 24 hours and 48 hours in all preparations. The radioactivities of the tumor, blood, muscle, liver, kidney and spleen were measured by a well-type scintillation counter, and retention values (in every tissue including the tumor) were calculated in percent of administered dose per g-tissue weight. All of seven preparations did not have any affinity for malignant tumor. Na251CrO4 and H2127mTeO3 had some affinity for the kidneys, and Na275SeO3 had some affinity for the liver. Na2181WO4 and (NH4)299MoO4 disappeared very rapidly from the blood and soft tissue, and about seventy-five percent of radioactivity was excreted in urine within first 3 hours.
