Rous sarcoma cells were implanted into the kidney of rats. After 5 days of growth the renal tumor was used for comparing histology with glucose 6-phosphatase (G6Pase) enzyme histochemistry (EHC) and 18F-fluoro-2-deoxyglucose (FDG) auroradiography (ARG). It was found that the regions of the kidney
OBJECTIVE
A few cases are reported of liver neoplasms observed in patients with glycogen storage disease type 1a (GSD1a). Genetic analysis was carried out in adult Japanese patients with GSD1a and their family members, and hepatic tumors were also investigated in these patients.
METHODS
DNA was
Chronic infection of woodchucks with woodchuck hepatitis virus (WHV) was associated with the development of hepatitis, foci of altered hepatocytes and hepatocellular adenomas and carcinomas. The cytomorphological and cytochemical analysis permitted the identification of three different types of
The activities of hexokinase and glucose-6-phosphatase, as well as the in vivo metabolic products of 2-[18F]fluoro-2-deoxyglucose ([18F]FDG) (45 min after an i.v. injection), were determined from several tissues of Rous sarcoma implanted rats. The HK/G-6-Pase ratio was found to be high in brain and
To elucidate interactions between the glucose transport system and hepatic glucose production in the tumour-bearing state, glycogen storage, expression of glucose transporter isoform 2 (Glut 2) and activities of glucose-6-phosphatase (G-6-Pase) and hexokinase were histochemically examined in
Most neoplasms are dependent on glucose as their primary fuel, and their ambient glucose levels tend to be rather low owing to wasteful aerobic glycolysis and poor perfusion. Previous attempts to starve tumors by inducing hypoglycemia have foundered on the fact that the CNS and other tissues have
Effect of treatment of female rats with an oral contraceptive agent (OCA), Ovulen-50, for 7 weeks on agglutination of hepatocytes with concanavalin A (con A) and activities of certain tumor marker enzymes were examined to find out if OCA treatment is related to preneoplastic or neoplastic processes.
The relationships between the gross appearance, histologic types, and cytochemical characteristics of hepatocellular neoplasms were studied in B6C3F1 mice given the liver carcinogen diethylnitrosamine either alone or followed by the organochlorine pesticides, 4,4'-dichlorodiphenyltrichloroethane,
The levels of dehydroepiandrosterone (DHEA) and its sulfate (DHEA-S) peak in human in their twenties, then decrease gradually with age. The physiological importance of DHEA was not clear until recent research reports showing that DHEA has beneficial effects on preventing diabetes, malignancy,
Mice bearing IL-1beta-secreting tumor were used to study the chronic effect of IL-1beta on glucose metabolism. Mice were injected with syngeneic tumor cells transduced with the human IL-1beta gene. Serum IL-1beta levels increased exponentially with time. Secretion of IL-1beta from the developed
Mice bearing interleukin-6 (IL-6)-secreting tumor were used to study the chronic effect of IL-6 on carbohydrate metabolism. Mice were injected with allogeneic tumor cells transduced with the murine IL-6 gene. Serum IL-6 levels were correlated exponentially with tumor weight. Secretion of IL-6 from
The effects of alternating ad libitum feeding and 30% restriction of the dietary intake on the development of diethylnitrosamine (DEN)-induced hepatic neoplasia were investigated. Dietary restriction retarded the growth of glucose-6-phosphatase-deficient (G6Pd) preneoplastic foci and subsequently
The activation of TP53 is well known to exert tumor suppressive effects. We have detected a primate-specific adrenal androgen-mediated tumor suppression system in which circulating DHEAS is converted to DHEA specifically in cells in which TP53 has been inactivated DHEA is an uncompetitive inhibitor

BACKGROUND
Cancer cells have an abnormal energetic metabolism. One of the earliest discovered hallmarks of cancer had its roots in bioenergetics, as many tumours were found in the 1920s to exhibit a high glycolytic phenotype. An animal with cancer shows significant and progressive energy loss from
