흰쥐 육종 180에서 $^{169}Yb-Citrate$의 종양 친화성

Accumulation of $^{l69}Yb$ Citrate in Tumor Bearing Mice

Tumor localizing properties of $^{67}Ga$ citrate and $^{169}Yb$ citrate were studies with sarcoma 180 bearing mice. To compare precisely the accumulation of $^{67}Ga$ citrate and $^{169}Yb$ citrate in tumor tissue itself, $^{67}Ga$ and l63yb were administered simultaneously as a mixture of same chemical form of citrate. The yield of $^{169}Yb$ labeled citrated and the of radiopharmaceuticals purity was identified more than 90% by chromatography on silica gel plates. $^{67}Ga$ and $^{169}Yb$ were injected into mice and the mice were killed at 3, 24, and 48 hours following intraperitoneal injection of the radiopharmaceuticals. The retention value of $^{67}Ga$ and $^{169}Yb$ in tumor was similar but they differ from each other markedly in normal tissue distribution. $^{169}Yb$ citrate is cleared up from blood more rapidly than $^{67}Ga$ citrate, and a high tumor to blood ratio is achieved shortly after injection.
