Abstract「要旨」腫瘍の悪性度と201Tlの集積程度との関係を明らかにすることを目的として, 201Tl SPECTを行った症例の腫瘍摘出術の際にbromodeoxyuridine(BUdR)を投与し, 得られた腫瘍組織を抗BUdRモノクローナル抗体で染色した. 染色された腫瘍細胞の割合をlabeling index(BUdR-LI)として腫瘍の悪性度の指標とし, 201Tlの集積程度の指標は, 病巣(D)とそれと対称な正常部(C)のカウント比をD/C ratio(%)として用いた. 14例のgliomaを対象に検討した結果, grade IまたはIIのBUdR-LIの平均は0.80±1.12であったのに対して, grade III, IVは, それぞれ5.17±3.32および7.67±3.77であった. 一方, 201TlのD/C ratioはそれぞれ94.2±11.9, 138.3±33.9, 198.7±31.7であった. またBUdR-LIとD/C ratioの間にはr=0.753の正の相関を認め, 細胞増殖の程度と201Tlの集積との相関が明らかにされた. 201Tl SPECTは, 増殖能を有する腫瘍組織の存在を正しく評価し, gliomaの非侵襲的な悪性度の判定, 治療後の効果や再発, および悪性化の判定に有用である.

Abstract[Summary]The purpose of this study is to clarify the usefulness of 201Tl brain SPECT in the prediction of clinical degree of malignancy. Quantitative evaluation of 201Tl uptake in the tumor was expressed as count ratio of tumor site over contralateral normal region (D/C ratio) on 201Tl SPECT image. Fourteen patients with gliomas received an intravenous administration of bromodeoxyuridine (BUdR) at surgery to label tumor cells in the DNA synthesis phase. BUdR-positive cells in excised tumor specimen were stained with anti-BUdR monoclonal antibody by indirect immunoperoxydase staining. Percentage of labeled cells in relation to the total number of tumor cells in microscopic fields was defined as labeling index (BUdR-LI). D/C ratio in patients with grade IV glioma (198.7 +- 31.7) was higher than that in patients with grade III glioma (138.3 +- 33.9) or more low-grade gliomas (94.2 +- 11.9, p<0.001). BUdR-LI in patients with high-grade glioma was also higher than that in patients with low-grade glioma. D/C ratio correlated well (r=0.753) with BUdR-LI, which is considered to represent proliferative activity of the tumor. D/C ratio does not only correlate well with histological grade of glioma, but with clinical course or prognosis of individual patient with glioma. In conclusion, degree of 201Tl uptake in the tumor may provide non-invasive prediction of malignancy grade of gliomas and accurate estima-tion of efficacy of the therapy and early detection of recurrence or malignant transformation of the tumors, by delineating viable tumor tissue in patients with gliomas.
