N-isopropyl-123I-p-iodoamphetamine uptake mechanism in the lung--is it dependent on pH, lipophilicity or pKa?
Abstract
The uptake and binding mechanism of biogenic amines in the lungs has been studied extensively with no conclusive results. The competition between N-isopropyl-123I-p-iodo amphetamines (123I-IMP) and propranolol and 123I-IMP and ketamine, in the lungs suggest that the pKa value of the biogenic amines has a significant role to play in the mechanism of uptake and retention of biogenic amines in the lungs.
