Rhenium-188: availability from the (188)W/(188)Re generator and status of current applications.
Rhenium-188 is one of the most readily available generator derived and useful radionuclides for therapy emitting β(-) particles (2.12 MeV, 71.1% and 1.965 MeV, 25.6%) and imageable gammas (155 keV, 15.1%). The (188)W/(188)Re generator is an ideal source for the long term (4-6 months) continuous availability of no carrier added (nca) (188)Re suitable for the preparation of radiopharmaceuticals for radionuclide therapy. The challenges associated with the double neutron capture route of production of the parent (188)W radionuclide have been a major impediment in the progress of application of (188)Re. Tungsten-188 of adequate specific activity can be prepared only in 2-3 of the high flux reactors operating in the World. Several useful technologies have been developed for the preparation of clinical grade (188)W/(188)Re generators. Since the specific activity of (188)W used in the generator is relatively low 185 GBq( < 5 Ci)/g], the eluted (188)ReO(4)(-) can have low radioactive concentration often insufficient for radiopharmaceutical preparation. However, several efficient post elution concentration techniques have been developed that yield clinically useful (188)ReO(4)(-) solutions. Rhenium-188 has been used for the preparation of therapeutic radiopharmaceuticals for the management of diseases such as bone metastasis, rheumatoid arthritis and primary cancers. Several early phase clinical studies using radiopharmaceuticals based on (188)Re-labeled phosphonates, antibodies, peptides, lipiodol and particulates have been reported. This article reviews the availability and use of (188)Re including a discussion of why broader use of (188)Re has not progressed as expected as a popular radionuclide for therapy.

Apigenin-Loaded PLGA-DMSA Nanoparticles: A Novel Strategy to Treat Melanoma Lung Metastasis.
The flavone apigenin (APG), alone as well as in combination with other chemotherapeutic agents, is known to exhibit potential anticancer effects in various tumors and inhibit growth and metastasis of melanoma. However, the potential of apigenin nanoparticles (APG-NPs) to prevent lung colonization of malignant melanoma has not been well investigated. APG-loaded PLGA-NPs were surface-functionalized with Topics: Animals; Apigenin; Apoptosis; Cell Culture Techniques; Cell Line, Tumor; Cell Movement; Disease Models, Animal; Drug Carriers; Drug Liberation; Female; Humans; Lung Neoplasms; Melanoma; Mice; Nanoparticles; Neoplasm Invasiveness; Particle Size; Polylactic Acid-Polyglycolic Acid Copolymer; Skin Neoplasms; Spheroids, Cellular; Succimer; Tissue Distribution | 2021 |
