Background: To better understand ischaemia-related molecular alterations, temporal changes in angiogenic Aminopeptidase N (APN/CD13) expression and glucose metabolism were assessed with PET using a rat model of peripheral arterial disease (PAD). Methods: The mechanical occlusion of the base of the left hindlimb triggered using a tourniquet was applied to establish the ischaemia/reperfusion injury model in Fischer-344 rats. 2-[18F]FDG and [68Ga]Ga-NOTA-c(NGR) PET imaging performed 1, 3, 5, 7, and 10 days post-ischaemia induction was followed by Western blotting and immunohistochemical staining for APN/CD13 in ischaemic and control muscle tissue extracts. Results: Due to a cellular adaptation to hypoxia, a gradual increase in [68Ga]Ga-NOTA-c(NGR) and 2-[18F]FDG uptake was observed from post-intervention day 1 to 7 in the ischaemic hindlimbs, which was followed by a drop on day 10. Conforming pronounced angiogenic recovery, the NGR accretion of the ischaemic extremities differed significantly from the controls 5, 7, and 10 days after ischaemia induction (p ≤ 0.05), which correlated with the Western blot and immunohistochemical results. No remarkable radioactivity was depicted between the normally perfused hindlimbs of either the ischaemic or the control groups. Conclusions: The PET-based longitudinal assessment of angiogenesis-associated APN/CD13 expression and glucose metabolism during ischaemia may continue to broaden our knowledge on the pathophysiology of PAD. |
