The development of ready-to-use lyophilized kit of PSMA-11 adds quality and safety to the routine use of this radiopharmaceutical and represents a pharmacotechnical challenge as it must preserve the integrity and specificity of the ligand. Methods: PSMA-11 kit formulation was proposed, considering radiolabeling parameters and the preservation of the peptide during the lyophilization process, using mannitol as an excipient. Critical temperature characterization studies were carried out using DSC equipment and the freeze-drying process was developed. The direct radiolabeling conditions were evaluated and standardized using 68Ge/68Ga generator eluate from two different manufacturers (ITG and Eckert & Ziegler). The radiochemical purity was evaluated by TLC and HPLC. Biological evaluation was carried out with lyophilized PSMA-11 to demonstrate the integrity of the peptide and preservation of biological activity after the lyophilization process. Results: Based on critical temperature characterization studies, the freeze-drying cycle was designed to reach a freezing temperature of around −40˚C and primary drying at 2˚C. Using 20 mg of mannitol, an intact and elegant lyophilized cake was obtained. PSMA-11 lyophilized kit was directly labeled with 68Ga eluate from 68Ge/68Ga GMP generators (ITG and Eckert & Ziegler) resulting in % RP > 95% at pH 4.0 to 4.5. The results obtained from in vitro and in vivo biological competition studies confirmed the preservation of PSMA-11 affinity for the receptor after lyophilization. Conclusion: A lyophilized formulation (Kit) of PSMA-11 was successfully obtained, which preserved the integrity and biological activity of the peptide and guaranteed radiolabeling efficiency.展开更多

The expression levels of 2810408A11Rik mRNA in multiple tissue samples were analyzed using bioinformatic resources and RT-PCR technique. A specific rabbit polyclonal antibody was prepared by prokaryotic expression of 2810408A11Rik recombinant protein and utilized for animal immunization. Western blotting, immunohistochemistry and immunofluorescence were used to detect the expression and distribution of 2810408A11Rik. The results of the bioinformatic analysi and RT-PCR showed that 2810408A11Rik mRNA was specifically expressed in mouse testis, and 2810408AllRik protein included a protein phosphatase inhibitor domain. Western blotting assays, immunohistochemistry and immunofluorescence confirmed the expression of 2810408A11Rik protein in mouse testis, especially in post-meiosis round and long spermatids, and that it is localized in the acrosome and the post-nucleus area of sperm. Our findings suggest that 2810408A11Rik may play an important role in spermatogenesis, sperm capacitation and fertilization.展开更多
