Phosphoinositide turnover mediates the signaling of angiotensin II, which plays a pivotal
role in ventricular remodeling after myocardial infarction (MI). We tested the hypothesis that …

We recently reported that myocardial phosphoinositide (PI) metabolism can be visualised by
1-[1-11 C]-butyryl-2-palmitoyl-rac-glycerol (11 C-DAG) in rats with myocardial infarction (MI) …

Left ventricular (LV) remodeling after myocardial infarction (MI) is a maladaptive process that
increases the risk of heart failure and death. The myocardial phosphoinositide cycle, which …

Phosphoinositide metabolism plays an important role in cardiac pathophysiology. To
investigate whether [18F] diacylglycerol could be used to trace myocardial phosphoinositide …

Using 123I-beta-methyl iodophenyl pentadecanoic acid (123I-BMIPP), we investigated
changes in myocardial fatty acid metabolism at recovery from stunned myocardium after …

Previous studies led us to hypothesize that a fatty acid analogue, 15-p-iodophenyl-β-methyl
pentadecanoic acid (IMPPA or BMIPP), which is taken up but not quickly metabolized by …

Background. Iodine 123-labeled 15-(p-iodophenyl)-3-(R, S)-methylpentadecanoic acid
(BMIPP) is mainly trapped in the myocardium as triglyceride, depending on the adenosine …

To evaluate clinical value of a new fatty acid imaging tracer, 123I-beta-methyl iodophenyl
pentadecanoic acid (BMIPP), 27 patients with myocardial infarction (MI) underwent BMIPP …

The purpose of this study is to clarify whether dynamic SPECT (DECT) immediately after the
injection of 123I-15-(p-iodophenyl)-3-methyl pentadecanoic acid (BMIPP) may represent …

Background Iodine 123-labeled 15-(p-iodophenyl)-3R, S-methylpentadecanoic acid
(BMIPP) has recently been developed, since normal myocardium metabolizes free fatty …
