Summary

The influence of iron and gallium carriers on the in vitro and in vivo uptake of 67Ga and 59Fe by tumor cells has been studied. The results appear to indicate that ferritin might be involved in most of the systemic accumulation of 67Ga but that the mechanism of tumor uptake might be different.

Zusammenfassung

Der Einfluß von Eisenund Galliumträgerzusatz auf die Invitro- und In-vivo-Aufnahme von 67Ga und 59Fe durch Tumorzellen wurde untersucht. Die Ergebnisse scheinen anzuzeigen, daß Ferritin größtenteils an der systematischen Anreicherung von 67Ga beteiligt sein könnte, daß aber der Mechanismus der Tumoraufnahmen unterschiedlich zu sein scheint.
