چکیده

High-resolution 19F NMR spectroscopy at 9.4 T was used to study the difference in the metabolite pattern of 5-fluorouracil (5-FU) between viable and necrotic tissues of C38 murine colon tumors grown in C57BI/6 mice. Studies were performed on perchloric acid extracts of these tumor fractions after 5-FU treatment. The 19F nuclear magnetic resonance spectra exhibited resonances representing 5-FU, the catabolites alpha-fluoro-beta-ureidopropionic acid and alpha-fluoro-beta-alanine, as well as several fluoronucleotide anabolites. The absolute concentrations of anabolites and catabolites and the anabolite-to-catabolite ratio were significantly lower in the necrotic fraction than in the viable tumor fraction 50 min after administration of 5-FU, whereas the absolute concentration of 5-FU was the same. Therefore, in 5-FU metabolism studies with NMR spectroscopy, it is important to consider the necrotic contribution to the tumor volume.

Effect of modulators on 5-fluorouracil metabolite patterns in murine colon carcinoma determined by in vitro 19F nuclear magnetic resonance spectroscopy.

High-resolution 19F nuclear magnetic resonance spectroscopy at 7 T was used to study the effect of modulators on the metabolism of 5-fluorouracil (5-FUra, 115 mg/kg i.p.) in C38 murine colon tumors grown in C57BL/6 mice. Distinct 5-FUra metabolite patterns were found in perchloric acid extracts of these tumors after treatment. The 19F nuclear magnetic resonance spectra exhibited resonances repr...

Tumor trapping of 5-fluorouracil: in vivo 19F NMR spectroscopic pharmacokinetics in tumor-bearing humans and rabbits.

The pharmacokinetics of 5-fluorouracil (5FU) were studied in vivo in patients with discrete tumors and in rabbits bearing VX2 tumors by using 19F NMR spectroscopy. The human studies were conducted in a 1.5-T Magnetom magnetic resonance imager (Siemens), and the rabbit studies were conducted in a 4.7-T GE/Nicolet 33-cm bore magnet. Free 5FU was detected in the tumors of four of the six patients ...

Multiple Low Doses of 5-Fluorouracil Diminishes Immunosuppression by Myeloid Derived Suppressor Cells in Murine Melanoma Model

Background: Melanoma progression and metastasis is suggested to be mediated by increased accumulation of myeloid derived suppressor cells. Various chemotherapeutic drugs such as 5-Fluorouracil in single low concentration have the capacity, at least in part, to reverse tumor progression by reducing myeloid derived suppressor cellsmediated immunosuppression. Objective: To assess whether multiple ...

In vivo effect of 5-ethynyluracil on 5-fluorouracil metabolism determined by 19F nuclear magnetic resonance spectroscopy.

Biochemical modulation of 5-fluorouracil (5-FU) has been used over the past 20 years to improve the therapeutic efficacy of this antineoplastic agent. Recently, modulation of the catabolic pathway of this fluoropyrimidine has been the focus of extensive preclinical and clinical investigation. Dihydropyrimidine dehydrogenase catalyzes the rate-limiting step in the catabolism of 5-FU and rapidly ...

In vivo measurements of intratumoral metabolism, modulation, and pharmacokinetics of 5-fluorouracil, using 19F nuclear magnetic resonance spectroscopy.

In vivo 19F nuclear magnetic resonance spectroscopy was used to monitor and measure 5-fluorouracil and some of its cytotoxic anabolites directly in rats bearing the Walker 256 adenocarcinoma by using a 4.7-T horizontal bore magnet. A two-compartment subsystem model was used to estimate intratumoral transfer parameters. The apparent rate of formation of the nucleosides/tides in the tumor, K21, c...
