Research Abstract |
Tissue-type plasminogen activator(t-PA) which has a high affinity for fibrin in the clot, was labeled with I-131 by the iodogen method, and its binding to de-endothelialized lesions in the rabbit was measured to assess the detectability of thrombi. The de-endothelialized lesion was induced in the abdominal aorta with a Fogarty 4F balloon catheter. Two hours after the de-endothelization, I-131labeled t-PA(125 46 Ci) was injected intravenously. The initial half-life of the agent in blood was 2.9 0.4 min. The degree of binding of I-131-labeled t PA to the de-endothelialized lesion was evaluated at 15 min(n=6) or at 30 min(n=6) after injection of the agent. In spite of the retention of the biochemical properties of I-131 labeled t PA and the presence of fibrin deposition at the de-endothlialized lesion, the binding of t-PA to the lesion was not sufficiently strong. Lesion-to-control ratios(cpm/g/cpm/g) were 1.65 0.40(at 15 min)and1.39 1.31(at 30min), and lesion -to - blood ratios were 1.39 0.32(at 15 min) and 1.36 0.23(at 30 min). These results suggest that radiolabeled t-PA may be inappropriate as a radiopharmaceutical for the scintigraohic detection of pre-existing thrombotic lesion.
