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