Abstract:
:We recently suggested that the transferrin (Tf)-gallium-67 (67Ga) complex dissociated on the surface of the hepatocytes after partial hepatectomy and free 67Ga bound to heparan sulfate in the extracellular matrix. In the present study, we investigated whether the entering of indium-111 (111In) and iron-59 (59Fe) with high affinity to transferrin differed from the entering of 67Ga by the hepatocytes after partial hepatectomy. 111In was almost taken by the plasma and little taken by the red blood cell. On the other hand, the uptake of 59Fe by the red blood cell was higher than plasma. The uptake of 59Fe by the bone marrow was significantly higher than that of 111In. The uptake of 111In and 59Fe by the liver tissue was reached a maximum 2 d after partial hepatectomy but the uptake ratio of 111In was lower than that of 59Fe. We suspected that the uptake of 59Fe by the liver tissue was the highest because of the high binding affinity of Tf-59Fe to Tf-receptor. The entering of 111In and 59Fe into the hepatocytes was also reached a maximum 2 d after partial hepatectomy but the ratio of 59Fe was slightly lower than that of 111In. These results suggested that the binding affinity to Tf could have played a crucial role in the differences of the entering of 111In, 59Fe and 67Ga into the hepatocytes of partially hepatectomized rats.
