Assessment of myocardial fatty acid (FA) metabolism with 1-[C-14]-β-methylheptadecanoic acid (14C-BMHDA)

Creators

  • 1. Massachusetts General Hospital, Boston, MA (USA)

Description

Biodistribution of 14C-BMHDA was determined in rats (groups of six) in 5 tissues and blood at 5, 15, 30 and 60 minutes and compared to 14C-palmitic acid (14C-PA) a ''normal'' FA. A heart concentration of 2.82 and 4.18% I.D./gr at 5 and 60 minutes was observed for 14C-BMHDA. While 14C-palmitic acid was 2.65 and 0.89% I.D./gr at 5 and 60 minutes respectively. Some autoradiographic studies were also performed in rats. The autoradiographic studies of sagittal rat carcass slices confirmed the specific and pronounced myocardial uptake of radioactivity
