Abstract:
Objective To observe the distribution and imaging of radiolabelled arginine-glycineaspartic(RGD)peptide(99Tcm-3P4-RGD2)in collagen-induced arthritis(CIA),and to investigate the possibility of new markers for monitoring the angiogenesis of rheumatoid arthritis(RA)before and after treatment by single photon emission computed tomography(SPECT)labelled with 99Tcm-3P4-RGD2.Methods Type Ⅱ chicken collagen was injected into the tails of Wistar rats to establish arthritis models.The CIA-Wistar rats were randomly divided into three group:the Avastin group,the recombinant human tumor necrosis factor-α receptor Ⅱ group,and the blank control group.The changes of the arthritis index,joint pad thickness and radiological of T/NT before and after treatment were observed.The level of vascular endothelial growth factor(VEGF)in the serum was measured by enzyme-linked immuno sorbent assay(ELISA).The back metapedes pathological section was analyzed by Hematoxylin and Eosin stain(HE)and Safranin O stain as well as arthritic pathology index was also scored.The synovial expression level of VEGF was measured by immuno-histochemistry.The stain level of VEGF was assayed by semiquantitative approach.T test was applied for the comparison of two intergroup samples.Results Abnormal radioactive concentration appeared in the arthritis of the CIA-Wistar rats(1.40±0.17,1.32±0.20,1.30±0.08,P<0.05).Through the treatment of Avastin and recombinant human tumor necrosis factor-α receptor Ⅱ,the radiological of T/NT decreased significantly(0.43±0.14,0.40±0.12,t=17.710,16.812,P<0.05).After the treatment with Avastin and recombinant human tumor necrosis factor-α receptor Ⅱ,the severity of synovial pannus,joint pad thickness,arthritis index and the expression of VEGF were all decreased.The radiological of T/NT was positively correlated with the indices mentioned above(r=0.753,0.800,0.892,all P<0.01 respectively with the the rhTNFR:Fc group)(r=0.701,P=0.001;r=0.502,P=0.024;r=0.481,P=0.032 individually with the rhTNFR:Fc group).Conclusion When 99Tcm-3P4-RGD2 is injected through the tail vein of Wistar rats,it can show the pathological changes of arthritis clearly.99Tcm-3P4-RGD2may be the new eikonogen to monitor the angiogenesis of RA before and after treatment.
