Figure 1From: Iodine Uptake and Prostate Cancer in the TRAMP Mouse ModelTime course for the uptake of iodide (125I−) or iodine (125I2) in normal prostate. Mice of 12 or 24 wks of age were intraperitoneally injected with either 125I− or 125I2 (0.001 Ci/kg body weight) and were killed from 5 to 180 min after tracer administration. Tissues were weighed and the radioactivity measured (cpm). Prostate iodine uptake was expressed as cpm per mg prostate/cpm per mg liver (nonuptake organ). No significant differences were found. n = 3−6 per group.Back to article page
