(123)I-Iodo-alpha-methyltyrosine (IMT) transport into lymphomas has not been fully characterized. In rat Nb2-11C and Nb2-Sp lymphoma cell lines, linear uptake of (123)I-IMT occurred rapidly within 5-10 min. Eadie-Hoftee plots of (123)I-IMT uptake gave apparent Km's of 8.34+/-1.17 and 9.64+/-1.05 microM for Nb2-11C and Nb2-Sp cells, respectively, and involved the L and B(0,+) systems. In lymphoma-bearing rats, injected (123)I-IMT accumulated rapidly in the primary tumors but gave a low tumor-to-background ratio of 2:1. (123)I-IMT was transported rapidly into lymphoma cells both in vitro and in vivo, but low target-to-nontarget ratio may not make (123)I-IMT practical for scanning in vivo.
