BLM isolated from the fermentation products of Streptomyces verticillus in 1966 by Umezawa in Japan belongs to a family of structurally related small glycopeptides (1 kDa) that give rise to single-stranded DNA breaks and DNA double-strand breaks (DSBs) in a metal- and oxygen dependent manner1. The BLM used clinically is a mixture of three distinct isomers, A2 (the most abundant, 65 %), B2...

2-Fluoro-2-deoxy-D-glucose radiolabeled with Fluorine-18 (18F-FDG) is routinely used in nuclear medicine as a PET imaging radiopharmaceutical and nucleophilicly synthesised, in general, using mannose triflate as a precursor in the presence of Kryptofix 222TM as a catalyst in acetonitrile as a polar aprotic solvent, which involves the SN2 nucleophilic substitution reaction of 18F to 2-position...

Using [I-125]-labeled iodothyronines as substrates, we applied our newly developed radiometric enzyme assays for iodothyronine deiodinases (IDs) of types 1, 2 and 3 (D1, D2 and D3), as well as the adapted radiometric assays for conjugating enzymes uridine 5’-diphospho-glucuronyltransferase (UDP-GT) and iodothyronine sulfotransferases (ST), in radiopharmacological studies of the interaction of...
