The relationship between 67Ga accumulation and ATP metabolism in tumor cells in vitro

Abstract: Previously, we reported that the deposition of 67Ga into malignant tumors may be a sensitive index of proliferative activity in tumor cells. For the purpose of elucidation of this hypothesis, we investigated the relationship between the accumulation of 67Ga into malignant tumor cells and the intra cellular ATP metabolism in vitro. The uptake of 67Ga into tumor cells was inhibited by adding NaF which is an inhibitor of ATP production. Furthermore, the uptake of 67Ga into tumor cells was strongly inhibited by ad… Show more

“…Into the extracellular space, the 67 Ga complex binds with strong avidity to the lactoferrin and the siderophores, which are predominantly released by activated neutrophils and bacteria, thus causing its accumulation in areas affected by infections [25,26]. Nevertheless, considering the intense 67 Ga-citrate uptake also in presence of agranulocytes, it has to be considered that, similarly to 18 F-FDG, it is also absorbed by cells with an increased glucose metabolic rate [27]. For this reason, to detect opportunistic pulmonary infections and differentiate infections from Kaposi sarcoma or lymphomas in immunocompromised patients, the use of 67 Ga-citrate combined with thallium-201 chloride ( 201 Tl) has been proposed.…”

“…Bei der Galliumszintigraphie ist bis heute der Aufnah memechanismus des Gallium nicht geklärt; die Auf nahme eines Transferrin-Gallium-Komplexes wird kon trovers diskutiert [20], Ausserdem sind Technetium und Gallium Substanzen, die nicht in physiologischen Stoff wechselvorgängen Vorkommen. Zusätzlich ist die Mög lichkeit der Lokalisation der Stoffwechselerhöhung durch die nur zweidimensionale Darstellung bei der "T c-und der 67Ga-Szintigraphie eingeschränkt.…”

“…So ist zum Beispiel der Aufnahmemechanismus von Gallium immer noch umstritten. Hier wird die Aufnahme eines Transferrin-Gallium-Komplexes kontrovers diskutiert (8). Em weiterer Nachteil liegt in der Tatsache, da1 diese Techniken nur zweidimensionale Darstellungen und keine absoluten Messungen ermoglichen.…”
