Abstract
The tissue distribution of a number of 5-[131I]-iodo-2-thiouracil derivatives was measured in Syrian golden hamsters with Greene melanoma. These compounds were rapidly (in less than 1 h) distributed in all tissues, while in most tissues fast elimination (T1/2 1-3 h) was observed. Because of retention of the 131I activity in the tumour, high tumour/non-tumour tissue ratios were found (e.g. tumour/eye 2.3-10, tumour/skin 1.5-3) suggesting that some of these compounds might be used as melanoma delineating agents, when labelled with 123I.Entities:
