Pertechnetate (as (99m)TcO(4)(-)), (123)I(-), and (131)I(-) have a long and successful history of use in the diagnosis and therapy of thyroid cancer, with uptake into thyroid tissue mediated by the sodium-iodide symporter (NIS). NIS has also emerged as a potential target for radiotherapy of nonthyroid malignancies that express the endogenous or transfected symporter. Perrhenates (as (188)ReO(4)(-) and (186)ReO(4)(-)) are promising therapeutic substrates of NIS, although less is known about their behavior in vivo. In this study, we endeavored to characterize the biologic behavior of perrhenate, especially in relation to iodide and pertechnetate, to better explore its possible therapeutic role.
