Comparative 99mTc-MIBI, 99mTc-tetrofosmin and 99mTc-furifosmin uptake in human soft tissue sarcoma cell lines.
The uptake characteristics of technetium-99m hexakis-2-methoxyisobutylisonitrile (MIBI), 99mTc-tetrofosmin and 99mTc-furifosmin in human soft tissue sarcoma cell lines were investigated and compared. After 10-120 min of incubation at 37 degrees C, 32 degrees C and 22 degrees C with 99mTc-MIBI, 99mTc-tetrofosmin and 99mTc-furifosmin, the kinetics of cellular uptake of these tracers in human soft tissue sarcoma cells SW 684 (fibrosarcoma), SW 872 (liposarcoma), SW 982 (synovial sarcoma) and SW 1353 (chondrosarcoma) was assessed. The uptake of 99mTc-MIBI, 99mTc-tetrofosmin and 99mTc-furifosmin was temperature dependent. The kinetics of uptake of 99mTc-MIBI and of 99mTc-tetrofosmin was similar between fibrosarcoma and liposarcoma cells, as well as between synovial sarcoma and chondrosarcoma cells. 99mTc-furifosmin showed similar uptake kinetics in all cell lines. The uptake of 99mTc-furifosmin was, however, significantly higher in liposarcoma than in the other cells. The data indicate that the cellular uptake of 99mTc-MIBI, 99mTc-tetrofosmin and 99mTc-furifosmin is dependent on cellular metabolic activity.
