Measurement of specific and nonspecific tissue uptake of antibodies in tumor by SPECT imaging and nonlinear compartmental modeling by Nicholas Cho, Jason Ho, Geoffrey Del Rosario, Shang-Fan Yu, Gregory Z. Ferl, C. Andrew Boswell

“…While in vitro cell assays are typically used to study these internalization mechanisms, there are few methods readily available to evaluate these pathways in vivo. Single photon emission computed tomography (SPECT) imaging with a non-residualizing radiohalogen probe can measure total levels of intact antibody, and a residualizing radiometal-chelate probe, in combination with a non-residualizing probe, can measure catabolized antibody associated with receptor-mediated and nonspecific internalization processes. …”

Retinal clinical and morphofunctional changes in high myopia in combination with age-related macular degeneration of different stages by L. K. Moshetova, I. B. Alekseev, I. V. Vorobyeva, Yu. A. Nam

“…Additionally, we formed three control groups of the same age range:  group 1 consisted of 30 healthy subjects (58 eyes) with a SE between -0.25 D and +0.5 D and no retinal changes; group 2 included 20 patients (38 eyes) with isolated high myopia (SE +0.5 D and no retinal changes; group 2 included 20 patients (38 eyes) with isolated high myopia (SE ³ 6.5 D) and group 3 included another 20 patients (36 eyes) with the “dry” AMD form (AREDS 2, 3). We evaluated the best corrected visual acuity (BCVA), indicators of retinal photosensitivity (MD, PSD) according to computer perimetry data, and morphological characteristics: central retinal thickness (CRT), the anteroposterior axis of the eyeball, the condition of the macular region of the retina according to optical coherence tomography (OCT) in the β-scan mode and autofluorescence (AF).Results: in case of the combined pathology, we detected a reliable reduction of average BCVA to the level of 0.5 [0.3; 0.7] (p < 0.001) and a reduced factor of retinal photosensitivity as compared to the control: MD to -4.36 dB (р<0.001), PSD to 2.97 dB (р < 0.001). …”
