Evaluation of (131/123)I-5-iodo-2'-deoxycytidine as a novel proliferation probe in a tumor mouse model.
This study evaluated a radioiodinated deoxycytidine analog, (131)I-5-iodo-2'-deoxycytidine ([(131)I]ICdR), as a novel proliferation probe and compared it with (131)I-5-iodo-2'-deoxyuridine ([(131)I]IUdR) in a NG4TL4 sarcoma-bearing mouse model. As an imaging agent, the biological characteristics of [(123)I]IUdR is not satisfactory due to its metabolic instability and short biological half-life in vivo. With [(123)I]ICdR/SPECT it was possible to clearly delineate the tumor lesion at 1h post-injection (tumor-to-muscle ratio 7.74) in tumor-bearing mice. The results of biodistribution were consistent with those observed in scintigraphic imaging. This study demonstrated that [(131)I]ICdR is a more promising SPECT probe than [(131)I]IUdR for imaging proliferation.
