| Research Abstract |
It has recently been demonstrated that several ^<99m>Tc-labeled phosphate compounds accumulate in skeletal muscle in patients with myopathies including Duchenne muscular dystrophy (DMD). However, the mechanism by which these compounds accumulate in skeletal muscles is unknown. In order to analyze the mechanisms of tracer-localization in skeletal muscles of myopathies, the uptake of ^<99m>Tc-meuhylendiphosphonate (^<99m>Tc-MDP) by muscles examined in rats treated by intramuscular injection of a local anesthetic, bupivacaine. At the same time, the histological and biochemical changes of the injured muscles were studied, and findings obtained were correlated with the procedure of ^<99m>Tc-MDP uptake. The following results were obtained. 1) Intramuscular injection of bupivacaine resulted in markedly increased uptake of ^<99m>Tc-MDP in the injected muscle at 12 and 24 hours after injection. 2) The plasma CK concentration increased 2-3 folds' during the period from 3 to 24 hours after bupivacaine injection. 3) Four days following injection, the CK isozyme MB activity in muscle increased. 4) Twenty hours after injection of bupivacaine, changes such as hypercontraction and disruption of myofibrils. Z-band lysis, and swelling of mitochondria occured. Four days after the injection. myoblasts and myotubes were found in the damaged areas of the muscle. These results show that the increased muscle uptake of ^<99m>Tc-MDP reflects the early degenerative changes of skeletal muscle.
