Diagnostic and evaluative efficiency of ⁶⁸Ga-FAPI-04 in skeletal muscle injury.

ABSTRACT:

Background

Skeletal muscles are vital for daily function, yet assessing their injuries remain challenging. We aimed to elucidate the effectiveness of ⁶⁸Ga-FAPI-04 in evaluating skeletal muscle remodeling.

Results

C2C12 cells were subjected to graded H₂O₂ stimulation in vitro, revealing an initial rise and subsequent decline in fibroblast activation protein (FAP) expression as H₂O₂ concentration increased. In vivo, a murine triceps surae injury model was created using various solutions to simulate normal repair, mild repair failure, and severe repair failure. Assessments were conducted on days 1, 3, 7, and 14 using PET, MRI, and ultrasound. With ⁶⁸Ga-FAPI-04, the normal and mild repair failure groups showed sig
