英文摘要
This subproject is one of many research subprojects utilizing the resources
provided by a Center grant funded by NIH/NCRR. Primary support for the subproject
and the subproject's principal investigator may have been provided by other sources,
including other NIH sources. The Total Cost listed for the subproject likely
represents the estimated amount of Center infrastructure utilized by the subproject,
not direct funding provided by the NCRR grant to the subproject or subproject staff.
Objective: To assess neurotoxicologic risk of paraquat exposure to mother and fetus.
RESULTS:
Pregnant rhesus macaques in their third trimester of pregnancy were given trace amounts of [C-11]-paraquat and imaged using PET/CT. Paraquat is a common herbicide thought to cause Parkinson's disease because its chemical structure is similar to 1-methyl-4-phenyl 1,2,3,6-tetrahydropyridine (MPTP), a neurotoxin known to induce parkinsonism in primates. Results indicate that paraquat minimally crosses the blood brain barrier of both mother and fetus. The level of paraquat in both fetal and maternal brains is associated with cerebral plasma. This finding is consistent with our previous findings in adult male macaques and suggests that a single acute paraquat exposure is unlikely to play a role in Parkinson's disease.
We also studied the fetal uptake of the radiopharmaceutical fluoro-L-thymidine (FLT) which is currently under development as positron emission tomography (PET) imaging agent for cancer. The goal was to assess radiation dose to the fetus when the FLT is used in the study of pregnant women. Results show that the whole body dose to the fetus is below regulatory limits. An interesting finding was FLT retention in fetal liver unlike its clearance from maternal liver. This is likely due to the role of the fetal liver in hematopoiesis which in adults occurs in bone marrow.
A third set of studies evaluated the levels of dopamine D2 receptor subtype in the fetal brain compared to the maternal brain in the third trimester of pregnancy. Results show that the fetal brain has about half the dopamine D2 receptor subtype level as an adult brain. However, comparisons to humans have to consider the more rapid brain development in monkeys compared to humans.
These studies provide proof of the utility of PET/CT imaging of pregnant rhesus macaques to study fetal neurochemistry.
