[18F]-2-FDG as a tool for studying hexokinase kinetics

  • 1. Vrije Univ., Brussels (Belgium)

Description

In the basic research related to the development of radiolabelled glucose analogues or to sugar metabolism, the measurement of hexokinase kinetics is very important. The article of S. J. Gatley et al about the quality control of [18F]-2-FDG preparations using the hexokinase reaction in vitro was the basic idea of the method proposed in this paper dealing with the direct measurement of hexokinase kinetics by the measurement of the activity related to [18F]-2-FDG-6-phosphate. Experimental results indicate that the method is appropriate for hexokinase studies
