Although 18 F-labeled NaF was the first widely used agent for skeletal scintigraphy, it
quickly fell into disuse after the introduction of 99m Tc-labeled bone-imaging agents. Recent …

Nuclear medicine is composed of two complementary areas, imaging and therapy. Positron
emission tomography (PET) and single-photon imaging, including single-photon emission …

The successful in vivo implementation of gene expression modulation strategies relies on
effective, non-immunogenic delivery vehicles. Lipid nanoparticles are one of the most …

We have previously shown that transplantation of autologously derived, respiration-competent
mitochondria by direct injection into the heart following transient ischemia and reperfusion …

The objective of the present work is to extend the applicability of the solution target approach
to the production of 68 Ga using a low energy cyclotron. Since the developed method does …

The advancement of positron emission tomography (PET) depends on the development of
new radiotracers that will complement 18 F-FDG. Copper-64 ( 64 Cu) is a promising PET …

INTRODUCTION: Use of copper radioisotopes in antibody radiolabeling is challenged by
reported loss of the radionuclide from the bifunctional chelator used to label the protein. The …

Acute kidney injury is a common clinical disorder and one of the major causes of morbidity
and mortality in the postoperative period. In this study, the safety and efficacy of autologous …

The most common cause of acute lung injury is ischemia-reperfusion injury (IRI), during
which mitochondrial damage occurs. We have previously demonstrated that mitochondrial …

BACKGROUND Cold ischemia time (CIT) causes ischemia‒reperfusion injury to the
mitochondria and detrimentally effects myocardial function and tissue viability. Mitochondrial …
