99m-Technetium binding site in bone marrow mononuclear cells

Abstract: IntroductionThe increasing interest in 99m-technetium (99mTc)-labeled stem cells encouraged us to study the 99mTc binding sites in stem cell compartments.MethodsBone marrow mononuclear cells were collected from femurs and tibia of rats. Cells were labeled with 99mTc by a direct method, in which reduced molecules react with 99mTc with the use of chelating agents, and lysed carefully in an ultrasonic apparatus. The organelles were separated by means of differential centrifugation. At the end of this procedure, s… Show more

“…Analysis of the biodistribution was carried out using 99m Tc, which efficiently labels the mononuclear fraction of bone marrow cells and allows cell tracking after systemic injection [ 26 ]. Two hours after administration, both 99m Tc-BMMC-healthy and 99m Tc-BMMC-sil migrated preferentially to the liver in the SIL and C groups.…”

“…We observed that cells administered intravenously migrated mainly to the kidneys in groups subjected to IRI, albeit in a small amount, suggesting that injured kidney can secrete chemoattraction factors for recruitment of BMMCs, as shown in other studies related to cytokines secreted by the injured microenvironment, such as SDF1 or TGFβ1 [76, 77]. Tracking of injected BMMCs labeled with technetium was only possible during the first hours after administration due to the short half-life of Tc [20]. Therefore, we transplanted GFP+ BMMCs and localized them beyond 24 h. Only a small amount of GFP+ BMMCs was observed in the kidney (Fig.…”

“…BMMCs were labeled with 99m-technetium( 99m Tc) according to protocols described previously [20]. Briefly, 500 mL of sterile SnCl 2 solution was added to the cell suspension and the mixture was incubated at room temperature for 10 min.…”

“…In our studies, we used 99m Tc-ASCs to evaluate cell homing. The choice of the 99m Tc was due to its characteristics such as short decay time, easy image capture through the use of gamma cameras ensuring optimum image quality, and high sensitivity and availability when compared to other types [62][63][64][65]. Our results showed that 99m Tc-ASCs+HA remained at the injection site for a period of twenty-four hours ( Figure 6), with no signs of dispersion or migration to different organs, showing its feasibility.…”
