چکیده

The in vivo phosphorus-31 nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) spectra of Adriamycin (ADR)-sensitive murine mammary adenocarcinomas (17/A) and an ADR-resistant subline of this tumor which has been isolated in vivo (17/A/ADR) were compared both before and after i.v. administration of 12 mg/kg ADR. Significant differences between ADR-sensitive and -resistant tumors for the changes observed 1 day after treatment (prior to significant decreases in tumor size) included: the pH increased to greater than 7.3 in response to treatment (or pH remained elevated) in ADR-sensitive tumors only; the inorganic phosphate to nucleoside triphosphates peak height ratio decreased to less than 1 in response to treatment only in ADR-sensitive tumors; glycerophosphocholine to nucleoside triphosphates peak height ratio decreased in response to treatment in ADR-sensitive tumors only; and the phosphocholine to nucleoside triphosphates peak height ratio decreased in response to treatment in ADR-sensitive tumors only. These differences are evidence in support of the hypothesis that in vivo 31P-NMR provides response-specific markers of ADR sensitivity. Because 31P-NMR can be applied to humans, these differences may be of prognostic value in the clinical management of human breast cancer if they are present after treatment with lower, nontoxic doses of ADR.

Environmental Health Perspectives: a new beginning

The changes in the phosphorus metabolism of a xenografted hypopharynx carcinoma (Hyp 1), sensitive to cisplatin (CDDP), were compared to those occurring in two sublines of the tumour, characterised by moderate or high resistance to CDDP (Hyp 1/H and Hyp I/R) following, i.p. administration of 4, 8 or 12 mg CDDP/kg-. The investigations were performed by in vivo 31P nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR...

Murine mammary tumor response to hyperthermia and radiotherapy evaluated by in vivo 31P-nuclear magnetic resonance spectroscopy.

The response of the s.c.-implanted murine mammary carcinoma NU-82 to hyperthermia was followed as a function of time by 31P-nuclear magnetic resonance spectroscopy. Treatment consisted of elevation of the temperature of the tumors to 41-45 degrees C during 15 min. At 18 h after temperatures of up to 42, 43, 44, and 45 degrees C the ratio of ATP/Pi was unchanged, decreased, largely decreased, an...

31P-nuclear magnetic resonance spectroscopy of blood: a species comparison.

31P-nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) spectroscopy isfrequently used as a tool in the study of organs from various animal species and humans. Because signals arising from the presence of blood are visible in in vivo 31P-NMR spectra of blood-filled organs, such as the heart, it is necessary to correct these spectra for the contribution of blood to the signal. It is unknown whether species differe...

31P-nuclear magnetic resonance spectroscopy studies of the response of rat mammary tumors to endocrine therapy.

We have used 31P-nuclear magnetic resonance spectroscopy to detect the metabolic changes that occur in estrogen-sensitive, N-methyl-N-nitrosourea-induced rat mammary tumors as they regress following ovariectomy. In untreated animals the spectra of the tumors showed a steady loss of high energy phosphates (phosphocreatine and nucleoside triphosphates) and an increase in inorganic phosphate. This...

Breast Tissue Metabolism by Magnetic Resonance Spectroscopy

Metabolic alterations are known to occur with oncogenesis and tumor progression. During malignant transformation, the metabolism of cells and tissues is altered. Cancer metabolism can be studied using advanced technologies that detect both metabolites and metabolic activities. Identification, characterization, and quantification of metabolites (metabolomics) are important for metabolic analysis...
