When looking for "matched pairs" of radionuclides, suitable for radiolabeling of peptides for diagnosis and therapy, technetium and rhenium represent an almost ideal constellation. The important role of technetium-99m and Re-186/188 is based on the decay characteristics, suitable for tumor diagnosis and therapy. Tc-99m and Re-188 are readily available by either a 99Mo/99mTc or the 188W/188Re ra- dionuclide generator system. Furthermore, technetium and rhenium are chemically related and share structural as well as reactive similarities, which prompt an attractive "matched-pair" situation. This article shows an overview of 99mTc- and 186/188Re-radiolabeled peptides that have been tested for their potential use as imaging and therapeutic agents in oncological diseases.展开更多

Exendin-4 was radioiodinated by the IODOGEN (1,3,4,6-tetrachloro-3 alpha, 6 alphadiphenylglucoluril) method. Pharrnacokinetic properties of ^125I-exendin-4 were examined after a single s.c. and i.v. injection, respectively. Tissue distri- bution and urinary, fecal, and biliary excretion patterns of ^125I-exendin-4 were also investigated following a single s.c. injection. Exendin-4 was rapidly distributed and cleared with t1/2 of (0.48 ± 0.03) h after a single i.v. injection. Following a single s.c. administration, exendin-4 exhibited rapid and considerable absorption with Tmax of (0.25± 0.02) h and declined with the elimination t1/2 of(1.28± 0.14) h. The absolute bioavailability was (65.5 ± 10.2) %. The radioactivity was widely distributed and rapidly diminished in most tissues. The kidney contained the highest radioactivity and the distribution of ^125I-exendin-4 to the brain was minimal. The major elimination route was urinary excretion. The pharmacokinetic properties of exendin-4 obtained from the present study closely matched those reported in previous studies in rats. Pharmacokinetics profiles of exendin-4 in rats are warranted for the design of future clinical trials.展开更多
