Daher soll in dieser Studie untersucht werden, ob die LVDD mit ECG-gated F-18-FDG PET in einem Diabetes-Rattenmodell dargestellt werden kann. Methodik: Es wurden F-18-FDG PET Scans in einem Typ-2-Diabetes Rattenmodell (ZDF fa/fa, n=6) und in ZL Kontrollen (n=6) vorgenommen (Alter, jeweils 13 Wochen). Unter Hyperinsulinemic-Euglycemic Clamp-Technik wurden 37 MBq 18F-FDG {\"u}ber die Schwanzvene appliziert. 15-35 Minuten nach Tracergabe wurden mittels eines Kleintier-PET-Scanners sowie unter EKG-Ableitung PET Scans angefertigt (16 frames/cardiac cycle). Die linksventrikul{\"a}re Ejektionsfraktion (EF) und die Peak F{\"u}llrate (PFR) wurden mittels einer geeigneten Software (Heart Function View) gemessen, wobei die Software an die Gr{\"o}ße des Rattenherzes angepasst wurde. Ergebnisse: Im Alter von 13 Wochen entwickeln ZDF Diabetes-Ratten eine im Vergleich zu Kontrolltieren eine signifikante myokardiale Hypertrophie, best{\"a}tigt durch post-mortem Analyse des Herzgewichtes (994±78mg vs. 871±44mg in ZDF Diabetes-Ratten vs. ZL Kontrollen, p<0.01). ECG-gated PET zeigte eine signifikante Abnahme der LV diastolischen PFR (10.4±0.5 vs. 11.8±0.4 EDV/sec in ZDF Diabetes-Ratten vs. ZL Kontrollen, p<0.001), jedoch zeigte sich kein signifikanter Unterschied zwischen LVEF und der Herzfrequenz in den untersuchten ZDF Diabetes-Ratten und Kontrollen (LVEF: 60.0±4.5 vs. 63.7±4.1\%, n.s. und HR: 305±25 vs. 323±24 bpm, n.s.). Schlussfolgerung: Im Diabetes-Ratten-Modell kann unter Verwendung eines ECG-gated FDG-PET Protokolls die diastolische Dysfunktion als Parameter der fr{\"u}hen diabetischen Kardiomyopathie nachgewiesen werden.}, subject = {Positronen-Emissions-Tomografie}, language = {de} } @inproceedings{WernerKobayashiWakabayashietal.2017, author = {Werner, Rudolf and Kobayashi, Ryohei and Wakabayashi, Hiroshi and Lapa, Constantin and Menke, Andreas and Higuchi, Takahiro}, title = {Effect of Antidepressants on Radiolabeled Metaiodobenzylguanidine (MIBG) Uptake}, series = {European Heart Journal - Cardiovascular Imaging}, volume = {18}, booktitle = {European Heart Journal - Cardiovascular Imaging}, number = {Supplement}, publisher = {Oxford University Press}, issn = {2047-2404}, doi = {10.1093/ehjci/jex080}, url = {http://nbn-resolving.de/urn:nbn:de:bvb:20-opus-161116}, pages = {i52-53}, year = {2017}, abstract = {No abstract available.}, subject = {MIBG}, language = {en} } @article{WernerWeichHiguchietal.2017, author = {Werner, Rudolf A. and Weich, Alexander and Higuchi, Takahiro and Schmid, Jan S. and Schirbel, Andreas and Lassmann, Michael and Wild, Vanessa and Rudelius, Martina and Kudlich, Theodor and Herrmann, Ken and Scheurlen, Michael and Buck, Andreas K. and Kropf, Saskia and Wester, Hans-J{\"u}rgen and Lapa, Constantin}, title = {Imaging of Chemokine Receptor 4 Expression in Neuroendocrine Tumors - a Triple Tracer Comparative Approach}, series = {Theranostics}, volume = {7}, journal = {Theranostics}, number = {6}, doi = {10.7150/thno.18754}, url = {http://nbn-resolving.de/urn:nbn:de:bvb:20-opus-158008}, pages = {1489-1498}, year = {2017}, abstract = {C-X-C motif chemokine receptor 4 (CXCR4) and somatostatin receptors (SSTR) are overexpressed in gastro-entero-pancreatic neuroendocrine tumors (GEP-NET). In this study, we aimed to elucidate the feasibility of non-invasive CXCR4 positron emission tomography/computed tomography (PET/CT) imaging in GEP-NET patients using [\(^{68}\)Ga]Pentixafor in comparison to \(^{68}\)Ga-DOTA-D-Phe-Tyr3-octreotide ([\(^{68}\)Ga]DOTATOC) and \(^{18}\)F-fluorodeoxyglucose ([\(^{18}\)F]FDG). Twelve patients with histologically proven GEP-NET (3xG1, 4xG2, 5xG3) underwent [\(^{68}\)Ga]DOTATOC, [\(^{18}\)F]FDG, and [\(^{68}\)Ga]Pentixafor PET/CT for staging and planning of the therapeutic management. Scans were analyzed on a patient as well as on a lesion basis and compared to immunohistochemical staining patterns of CXCR4 and somatostatin receptors SSTR2a and SSTR5. [\(^{68}\)Ga]Pentixafor visualized tumor lesions in 6/12 subjects, whereas [\(^{18}\)F]FDG revealed sites of disease in 10/12 and [\(^{68}\)Ga]DOTATOC in 11/12 patients, respectively. Regarding sensitivity, SSTR-directed PET was the superior imaging modality in all G1 and G2 NET. CXCR4-directed PET was negative in all G1 NET. In contrast, 50\% of G2 and 80\% of G3 patients exhibited [\(^{68}\)Ga]Pentixafor-positive tumor lesions. Whereas CXCR4 seems to play only a limited role in detecting well-differentiated NET, increasing receptor expression could be non-invasively observed with increasing tumor grade. Thus, [\(^{68}\)Ga]Pentixafor PET/CT might serve as non-invasive read-out for evaluating the possibility of CXCR4-directed endoradiotherapy in advanced dedifferentiated SSTR-negative tumors.}, subject = {Positronen-Emissions-Tomografie}, language = {en} }
