Simultaneous acquisition of 1H-decoupled 31P and 19F 3D CSI is demonstrated in the liver of a patient undergoing 5-fluorouracil chemotherapy. Both 31P and 19F shared the same voxel size (64 or 27 ml), bi-level 1H-decoupling and 0.35 s TR. The measurements were done in a 1.5 Tesla clinical imager with three radio-frequency (RF) channels and a triple-tuned surface-coil. The overall MRI and MRS examination time was under 90 min. Simultaneous acquisition of 31P and 19F permits localized study of the influence of hepatic metabolism on the uptake and catabolism of fluoropyrimidine drugs without extra measurement time or higher SAR.
In recent years, two mammalian proximal tubular brush border membrane Na/Pi cotransporters (types I and II) have been structurally identified by expression cloning techniques. Oocyte expression studies have shown that only the transport characteristics of the type II transporter correspond to the well-known properties of proximal tubular brush border membrane of Pi transport. In studies on physiological regulation by hormonal and non-hormonal factors a direct involvement and determining role of the type II transporter has been documented. Most interestingly, specific membrane retrieval/insertion phenomena participate in acute (minutes/hours) adjustments of brush border membrane Na/Pi cotransport rates; for chronic (hours/days) alterations also specific resynthesis/degradation processes participate. In pathophysiological alterations (e.g. in X-linked hypophosphataemia and in heavy metal-induced nephrotoxicity) the expression of the type II Na/Pi cotransporters is reduced and explains the observed phosphaturia.
Poly(glycolic acid) or polyglycolide (PGA) is a polymer of glycolic acid. Glycolic acid is produced during normal body metabolism and is known as hydroxyacetic acid. Strong implants can be manufactured from this polymer with a self-reinforcing (SR) technique and used in the treatment of fractures and osteotomies. Since 1984, SR-PGA implants have been used routinely in our hospital for internal fixation of bone fractures. These implants were studied extensively in experimental animals and proved biocompatible. In 1.7% of human cases, sinus formation may develop after the use of these implants, which does not disturb healing. Use of these absorbable implants is justified as it obviates the need for a second operation for implant removal and avoids the risks associated with biostable implants.
