[Relation between location of elements in periodic table and affinity for the malignant tumor (author's transl)].

Affinity of many inorganic compounds for the malignant tumor was examined, using the rats which were subcutaneously transplanted with Yoshida sarcoma. And the relations between the uptake rate into the malignant tumor and in vitro binding power to the protein were investigated in these compounds. In these experiments, the bipositive ions and anions had not affinity for the tumor tissue with a few exceptions. On the other hand, Hg, Au and Bi, which have strong binding power to the protein, showed high uptake rate into the malignant tumor. As Hg++, Au+ and Bi+++ are soft acids according to classification of Lewis acids, it was thought that these elements would bind strongly to soft base (R-SH, R-S-) present in the tumor tissue. In many hard acids (according to classification of Lewis acids), the uptake rate into the tumor was shown as a function of ionic potentials (valency/ionic radii) of the metal ions. It is presumed that the chemical bond of these hard acids in the tumor tissue is ionic bond to hard base (R-COO-, R-PO3(2-), R-SO3-, R-NH2).

[Relations between location of elements in periodic table and affinity for the kidneys (author's transl)].

The distribution of many inorganic compounds in rats was investigated in order to evaluate kidney affinity of inorganic compounds. In these experiments, 30%, 10-20% and 4-10% of administered dose was localized in the kidneys in 203Hg-acetate and 203 Bi-acetate, in H198AuCl4, 103PdCl2, 201TlCl, 210Pd(NO3)2 and H2(127M)TeO3, and in Na2(51)CrO4, 54MnCl2, (114m)InCl3 and 7BeCl2, respectively. Some bipositive ions and anions was hardly taken up into the kidneys. And in many hard acids according to classification of Lewis acids, the uptake rate into the kidneys was usually small. On the other hand, Hg, Au and Bi, which have strong binding power to the protein, showed high uptake rate in the kidneys. As Hg++, Au+ and Bi+++ was soft acids according to classification of Lewis acids, it was thought that these elements would bind strongly to soft base (RSH, RS-) present in the kidney.

[Study of 67Ga distribution in neoplasms and in liver by a cell fractionation method].

Subcellular distribution of 67Ga was quantitatively determined to evaluate the role of lysosome in accumulation of 67Ga in malignant tumor tissue and liver. The following animals and transplanted tumors were used: rats implanted with Yoshida sarcoma and hepatoma AH109A; mice implanted with Ehrlich tumor. 67Ga-citrate were injected to the rats intravenously and to the mice intraperitoneally. Ten minutes to 48 hours after the administration of 67Ga-citrate, the animal were sacrificed, and the tumor tissues and liver were excised. Subcellular fractionation of tumor tissues and livers were carried out according to the method of Hogeboom and Schneider. Radioactivity of each fraction was counted by a well type scintillation counter, and protein of each fraction was measured according to Lowry's method. In Yoshida sarcoma and Ehrlich tumor, most of the radioactivity was localized in the supernatant fraction, and small amount of radioactivity was localized in the mitochodrial fraction (lysosome contains in this fraction). But in the liver, most of the radioactivity was concentrated in the mitochondrial fraction and the radioactivity of this fraction was increased with the passage of time after administration. Twenty-four hours later, about 50% of total radioactivity was accumulated in this fraction. In the case of hepatoma AH109A, radioactivity of mitochondrial fraction was increased with the passage of time after administration, and about 30% of total activity was concentrated in this fraction at 24 hours after administration. From these results it is concluded that lysosome doses not play an important role in the tumor concentration of 67Ga and lysosome plays an important role in the liver concentration of 67Ga. In the case of hepatoma AH109A it is presumed that lysosome plays considerably important role in the tumor concentration of 67Ga, hepatoma AH109A having some nature of liver.
