Description

Based on the mechanism of hormone receptors, luteinizing hormone (LH) labelled with 123-iodine was used as tracer in scintigraphy of rabbit ovaries. The ovaries were visualized in static pictures 6-15 min after injection except in the case where the rabbit was pre-injected with 10 μg of cold LH. 3.1% of the injected activity was found in the ovaries 14 h after injection. (orig.)

Abstract (German)

Mit Hilfe von 123J-markiertem LH (Interstitialzellen stimulierendes Hormon) und auf der Grundlage des Hormonrezeptormechanismus wurden Szintigraphien an Kaninchenovarien durchgefuehrt. Die Ovarien wurden 6-15 min. nach der Injektion im statischen Bild dargestellt, mit Ausnahme eines Falles, in dem vorher 10 μg kaltes LH injiziert worden war. 14 h nach der Injektion wurden noch 3,1% der injizierten Aktivitaet in den Ovarien festgestellt.
