The kinetics of 17-[123I]iodoheptadecanoic acid (IHDA), 15-(p-[125I]iodophenyl)pentadecanoic acid (pIPPA) and 15-(p-[131I]iodophenyl)-3,3-dimethylpentadecanoic acid (DMIPPA) were investigated in normal canine myocardium. After simultaneous intravenous injection, myocardial biopsy specimens and samples of arterial blood were taken over 80 min. IHDA showed the highest myocardial uptake (995 +/- 248 dpm/mg.mCi versus pIPPA: 785 +/- 197 dpm/mg.mCi, ns) and the largest size of oxidation (74% +/- 4% versus pIPPA: 65% +/- 5%, p < 0.05). Myocardial activity of IHDA decreased with a half-time value of 11.2 min (pIPPA: 13.2 min). Phospholipids were the main lipid fraction into which IHDA was incorporated, whereas pIPPA was predominantly incorporated into triacylglycerols. DMIPPA myocardial activity remained constant during the assay period and instead of being oxidized, DMIPPA was mainly incorporated into triacylglycerols (55% +/- 12%). The myocardium-to-blood ratios of DMIPPA were greater than 10:1. The ratios at peak for IHDA and pIPPA were 4.1:1 and 3.9:1, respectively (both p < 0.0001 versus DMIPPA). In conclusion, differences have been found in the myocardial uptake, oxidation and lipid distribution of IHDA, pIPPA and DMIPPA. DMIPPA is a promising tracer for fatty acid uptake studies with single-photon emission computerized tomography because of its prolonged retention and high myocardium-to-blood ratios.

D015899 Tomography, Emission-Computed, Single-Photon A method of computed tomography that uses radionuclides which emit a single photon of a given energy. The camera is rotated 180 or 360 degrees around the patient to capture images at multiple positions along the arc. The computer is then used to reconstruct the transaxial, sagittal, and coronal images from the 3-dimensional distribution of radionuclides in the organ. The advantages of SPECT are that it can be used to observe biochemical and physiological processes as well as size and volume of the organ. The disadvantage is that, unlike positron-emission tomography where the positron-electron annihilation results in the emission of 2 photons at 180 degrees from each other, SPECT requires physical collimation to line up the photons, which results in the loss of many available photons and hence degrades the image.
