Preliminary evaluation of technetium-99m-labeled thymoquinone

Thymoquinone (TQ) was radiolabeled with sodium pertechnetate (Na 99m TcO4) by reduction with stannous chloride (SnCl2). The labeling efficiency of 99m Tc-TQ was determined by iTLC. Labeling conditions were optimized for pH, amount of SnCl2 required for radiolabeling and incubation time. Specifically...

description Thymoquinone (TQ) was radiolabeled with sodium pertechnetate (Na 99m TcO4) by reduction with stannous chloride (SnCl2). The labeling efficiency of 99m Tc-TQ was determined by iTLC. Labeling conditions were optimized for pH, amount of SnCl2 required for radiolabeling and incubation time. Specifically, direct radiolabeling of 2.5 mg/ml TQ with 250 µg/ml of stannous chloride at pH 7 with gentle mixing and incubation for 30 minutes generated the desired 99m Tc-TQ complex with 95% labeling efficiency. The in vitro stability in serum and physiologic saline showed that the radiolabeled complex was stable for 24 h. Based on the percent injected dose (%ID), the highest uptake of the 99m Tc-TQ was found in the RES post IV injection in normal mice. Oral administration of TQ led to predominant uptake of the radiolabeled complex in the stomach and the intestine. Thus, a quick, efficient and reproducible method for radiolabeling thymoquinone with the 99m Tc-radionuclide was developed and optimized. The TQ-radiotracer was evaluated for radiochemical purity, stability and tissue and organ distribution in mice.
