Abstract: | Three carbohydrate derivatives, MAG3-Gl, MAG3-Ga, MAG3-NG, were synthesized and radiolabeled in high yields. These substances were injected in health Swiss mice and their biodistribution were evaluated. Among them, 99mTc-MAG3-Ga displayed higher accumulation in hepatic tissue, due to the presence of specific receptors in the liver for this carbohydrate. Thus, the use of 99mTc-MAG3-Ga to assess hepatic function can be considered. |
