Abstract

Objective: This report describes the radioiodination process of human antinuclear antibody (ANA) to prepare 131I-ANA radiopharmaceutical used to studies in diagnose and treat cancer. The ANAs are human autoimmune antibodies that are able to enter the nucleus and bind to substances found in the nucleus. The labeled antibody will localize in necrotic regions within tumors. Subject and method: Antinuclear antibodies were studied on the radiolabeling with iodine-131 using chloramine T methods by the labeling optimization was conducted such as reactant concentration, pH and time. 131I-ANA were tested for radiochemical purity and stability using paper electrophoresis. The biodistribution was evaluated in 30 tumor-bearing mice with sarcoma-180 cancer cell line. Result: The results show that the radiolabeling efficiency in the preparation of 131I-ANA was 95.51 ± 0.94% with 200mg ANA and the radioactive of 131I was 1.0mCi under the condition of pH 7.4 and 5-10 minutes at room temperature. The radiochemical purity reached 98% and stability for 16 days. The labeled compound was accumulated higher into the sarcoma tumor site after 24h injection and was maintained until 72h. Conclusion: The 131I-ANA was successfully prepared with high efficiency, long days stable and met the initial required criteria of radiopharmaceutical and which is an ideal radiopharmaceutical for potential use in studies in malignant cancer treatments.
