Biometabolic Distribution of Tc-3PRGD2 and its Potential Value in Monitoring Chemotherapeutic Effects by Jian-Guo Wu, Shao-Li Song, Xiang Zhou, Fan Wang, Yin-Yan Zhu, Lei Xie, Fan Zhang, Gang Huang

“…In this study, we investigated the biometabolic distribution characteristics of 99m Tc-3PRGD2 with a continuous dynamic acquisition mode to explore the potential value of 99m Tc-3PRGD2 in monitoring chemotherapeutic effects in VX2 tumor models. Eighteen rabbits with 27 implanted VX2 squamous cell tumors were randomly divided into a nontreated control group (NTG, n = 8; 12 tumors) and a treatment group (TG, n = 10; 15 tumors). 99m Tc-3PRGD2 imaging was performed prior to cisplatin injection and repeated on days 0,1, 7, and 14 postinjection. …”
