Abstract:
Objective To evaluate the feasibility of ~ 125 Iodine -labeled IL-2 scintigraphic methods for the imaging of lymphocyte infiltration of the Langerhans′ islets. Methods ~ 125 I-IL2 was injected intravenously to pre-diabetic female NOD mice (aged 16-17 weeks)and female Balb/c mice as control. Animals were sacrificed at different time points and the radioactivity in different organs was measured.~ 131 I-IL-2 was injected iv to 3 pre-diabetic female NOD mice, and pancreas was imaged through SPECT after 30 minutes injection. Results The mean radio activities in the pancreas of NOD mice were significantly higher as compared to those of Balb/c mice at time points from 30 to 120 minutes (P
