Published: February 2004

The chemistry of antimony trisulphide colloid (ATC) was examined to elucidate the radiolabelling mechanism with 99mTcO4(-). Ion exchange chromatography and atomic absorption spectrophotometry techniques determined ATC to be resistant to hydrolysis in 0.1M hydrochloric acid (HCl) at 25 degrees C or 100 degrees C (>97% recovery, Sb3+ absent). Hydrogen sulphide gas detected did not participate in the mechanism, where antimony trisulphide and 99mTcO4(-) in HCl/100 degrees C yielded 96% 99mTc-product from a K2S-free formulation (versus 98% when K2S was present). 99mTcO4(-) was reduced >90% by DMSA or dithiothreitol under the same conditions, identifying involvement of thiol groups. Infrared analysis of Re-ATC showed S=O bonds, indicating excess thiol groups at the colloid surface were oxidised at the expense of 99mTcO4(-) reduction.

Dietary protein reduces energy intake in following meals by signaling directly or indirectly to the brain. We recently observed differences in plasma amino acid kinetics and intra-gastric behavior between micellar casein (MC) and sodium caseinate (SC) in pigs, two factors that impact food intake. Our objective was to clarify whether the supramolecular structure of casein, given as a preload to pigs, impacts on subsequent food intake.

Background: Metabolic dysfunction-associated steatotic liver disease (MASLD) is a global epidemic. MASLD has a strong genetic component, and a common missense variant (rs2642438) in the mitochondrial amidoxime-reducing component 1 (MARC1) gene confers protection against its onset and severity. However, there are contrasting results regarding the mechanisms entangling this protection.

Purpose: With the growing interest in exploring radiolanthanides for nuclear medicine applications, the question arises as to whether they are generally interchangeable without affecting a biomolecule's pharmacokinetic properties. The goal of this study was to investigate similarities and differences of four (radio)lanthanides simultaneously applied as complexes of biomolecules or in ionic form.

Methods: Inductively coupled plasma mass spectrometry (ICP-MS) was employed for the simultaneous detection of four lanthanides (Ln = lutetium, terbium, gadolinium and europium) in biological samples.
