Mangafodipir , as the abbreviation Mn-DPDP , is the international non-proprietary name of a contrast agent for magnetic resonance imaging (MRT) based on bivalent manganese . It is sold under the brand name Teslascan by GE Healthcare .

Indication and application

The use of Mangafodipir as contrast agents in nuclear spin tomography is essentially at lesions of the liver indicated. It can also be used on lesions of the pancreas . In many cases it is used to diagnose liver metastases . Even non-malignant changes, such as those of the pancreas in Caroli's syndrome , can be better diagnosed with the help of this contrast agent.

The substance is given intravenously before the MRI . After about 15 to 20 minutes, the maximum accumulation in the parenchyma of the liver is reached and held for about four hours.

In the European Union, the dose given to the patient is usually 0.5 ml per kilogram of body weight .

Structure and working principle of the contrast agent

Manganese 2+ ions have five unpaired electrons on their outer electron shell, which makes them highly paramagnetic . When administered intravenously, free manganese ions are neurotoxic to humans and many other organisms and damage the central nervous system . However, complexation with a chelator can drastically reduce toxicity. In the case of Mangafodipir, dipyridoxyl diphosphate (DPDP or Fodipir), a complexing agent based on two molecules of pyridoxine (vitamin B6), is used.

As contrast agents shorten manganese 2+ ions, the T 1 - relaxation time , which is why T 1 -weighted images appear brighter in the magnetic resonance imaging at the points at which Mangafodipir has enriched. Mangafodipir is specifically absorbed by the hepatocytes in the liver. Liver metastases are produced by other types of cells that mangafodipir cannot take up. In this way Mangafodipir enhances the contrast in magnetic resonance imaging: the liver metastases appear in T 1 significantly -weighted images darker than the healthy liver tissue. In the case of T 2 -weighted images, this contrast enhancement by mangafodipir is not given.

Pharmacokinetics

Mangafodipir is metabolized by dephosphorylation , whereby the manganese ions are released by exchange with zinc ions in the plasma. The manganese released in this way is absorbed as soon as it first passes through the liver, which is why it cannot develop its neurotoxic effect.

The released manganese and dipyridoxyl diphosphate are excreted differently from the body. The mean initial plasma half-life of the manganese ions is less than 20 minutes. They are mainly taken up by the liver, pancreas, kidneys and spleen . The initial plasma half-life of the ligand is about 50 minutes. Almost all of it is excreted in the urine and a small part in the stool within 24 hours . In contrast, only about 15 to 20 percent of the manganese is eliminated in the urine in the first 24 hours. Most of the remainder is excreted in the stool over the next four days.

Side effects

The most common undesirable side effects after administration of Mangafodipir are headache , nausea , reddening of the skin and a feeling of heat. This affects around 1 to 10% of patients.

For pregnant or lactating patients Mangafodipir should not be used, as well as in patients with a pheochromocytoma or severe liver and kidney disease.

In the model organism color rat , a teratogenic effect could be determined at a dose that is slightly higher than the usual clinical dose . The rat fetuses showed increased malformations of the skeletal system.

Therapeutic effects

As a contrast medium, Mangafodipir should only have diagnostic properties and no side effects or therapeutic properties. Mangafodipir also shows therapeutic effects in various model organisms. For example, it protects the myocardium against oxidative stress triggered by reactive oxygen species . It stabilizes the lysosomal and mitochondional membranes and thus prevents apoptosis .

In addition, mangafodipir shows an anti-tumor and liver protective effect in animal experiments. In color mice , for example, the survival rate for acute liver failure induced by paracetamol could be improved preventively and curatively.

Mangafodipir apparently has a similar effect to superoxide dismutases in vivo .

Mangafodipir is not approved for therapeutic use.

Development history

Mangafodipir was developed in the early 1980s. The first clinical studies took place in the early 1990s. The European Commission granted GE Healthcare drug approval on May 22, 1997 .
