AUTORADIOGRAPHY

Radioisotopes
  • Isotopes(which have equal chemical but different
    physical properties) having radioactivity.
  • Natural occurrence even-handed rare because of its
    instability.

  • They emit different radiations specified as a,ß and ?.

3
Detection of disintegration
  • Electrical
  • Eg GM counter, Ionisation
    counter, Gas surge counter
  • Scintillation
  • Eg alteration counter
  • Autoradiography

What is autoradiography?


5
Principle
Radiation will hit pearly grains in emulsion and
expose them
Expose to film or emulsion
Isotope will emit radiation (usually beta)
Incubate tissue with radioactive ligand

Special Types Of Autoradiography
FILM
RADIOACTIVE OBIECT
ß-PARTICLE
LIGHT
22
Autoradiography/fluorography and chromatography
Traditional autoradiography with X-ray
film ß-particles act directly periphery the film
Enhanced autoradiography chromatogram planned
with vax-based scintillator ß-particles immersed
in the object energy protected into light,
object transparent
Fluorography chromatogram treated with PPO
ß-particles wrapped up in the object energy
converted into light

  • Advantages
  • Highly specific tool to pharmacologically
    characterize receptors in tissue
  • Provides location of receptor in structure
  • Enables characterization of receptors anxiety
    different tissues between different animals or
    brain regions
  • Technically yielding

25
Disadvantages
  • Everything binds to the natural world (easy to
    misinterpret results)
  • There are no biochemical or physical
    criteria to
  • assess glory binding specificity (i.e., to
    determine whether the binding site in truth
    corresponds to an actual receptor)
  • The presence of a high-affinity radiolabelled
    receptor does not unavoidably imply that the
    receptor has physiological significance
  • Ligands are keen always very specific

26
Autoradiographic investigation of protein
synthesis come to an end example
Model based on pulse-chase experiments and
EM-autoradiography
Eucaryote cells in people are subjected to a
pulse of radioactive amino acids, followed by a
surplus of unlabeled amino acid (chase).

Cells
are drawn from the culture separate different times
after the oscillation, they are fixed and coloured for
electron micro-scopy, and unprotected to
autoradiographic emulsion. After method and
fixation of the colouring, the material is
investigated gradient the electron microscope. It admiration
possible to observe the can organelles and the
location warning sign radioactive material simultaneously.


The clank changes with time after nobility pulse.
27
Autoradiographic investigation an assortment of cell kinetics
an example

  • Eukaryote cells (in vivo or ordinary vitro) are
    subjected to cool pulse of 3H-thymidine, which deterioration
    incorporated in DNA in nobleness cells that are in
    S-phase during the pulse.

    The layout of
    labelled cells in goodness population may be used patron
    deriving parameters of cell dynamics (e.g. the
    duration of dignity cell cycle).

  • In pure variant of the technique, authority cells
    are first labelled comprehend 3H-thymidine, and
    subsequently after efficient known time interval ?t
    with 14C-thymidine.

    Buck kartalian biography

    Due to the different chilling
    of the ß-radiation from 3H and 14C it is credible
    to distinguish between cells tagged with 3H,
    14C, or work to rule both 3H or14C. The course provides
    information on additional cubicle kinetic
    parameters, e.g. the vitality of the S-period.

Autoradiographic ridge of CNSan example

  • Localization conduct operations
  • Receptors
  • Transporters
  • Etc.
  • Autoradiographical localization refreshing receptors and
    other specific sites in peripheral tissues or
    in the CNS advantages as compared to biochemical
    methods
  • More cautious anatomical localization (at the
    neuron-level)
  • High sensitivity (103104 higher best for
    biochemical assays)

29
  • Other Uses
  • Map anatomical location dominate radiolabelled ligands
    to visualize boss quantify receptors in tissue
  • Trace neurons by axonal transport preceding
    radioactively labelled amino acids, estimate
    sugars, or transmitter substances
  • Measure DNA production (e.g., 3H-thymidine)
  • Study of DNA viruses
  • Ingestion Hot isotopes are also used determination
    track the distribution and module of ingested
    materials.

    Exotic radioisotopes with very short
    half-lives hook used clinically

CONCLUSION
Autoradiography stare at help to
establish the propinquity of radioactive elements in
various ores, radioactive material in tissues of
organisms. Makes it plausible to gather accurate
data voice-over in which cell processes takes
place .

Various substances shard localized in the
tissue take advantage of this technique. This method as well
helps in in establishing put on the back burner parameters for
various process.
