Technetium-99m labeling of human monocytes for chemotactic studies. 1976

C K Papierniak, and R E Bourey, and R R Kretschmer, and S P Gotoff, and L G Colombetti

Although the current use of 51Cr for the evaluation of monocyte chemotaxis has yielded encouraging results, certain properties of this radionuclide leave room for improvement. Technetium-99m was evaluated as an alternative label for this purpose. A cell loss of 50% was found, but the recovered cells showed excellent viability and function. Chemotaxis was measured using a modified Boyden's chamber and a lymphocyte-derived chemotactic factor. The chemotactic properties of 99mTc-labeled human monocytes were preserved, and an excellent correlation between radioactive measurement and microscopic counting of migrating cells was observed.
