Hypoxic regions are present in different types of cancer and are a negative prognostic factor for disease progression and response to therapy. (18)F-fluoroazomycin-arabinofuranoside ((18)F-FAZA) and (64)Cu-diacetyl-bis(N4-methylthiosemicarbazone) ((64)Cu-ATSM) have been widely used to visualize
OBJECTIVE
To compare two potential positron emission tomography (PET) tracers of tumor hypoxia in an animal model.
METHODS
The purported hypoxia imaging agents (18)F-fluoromisonidazole (FMISO) and (64)Cu(II)-diacetyl-bis(N4-methylthiosemicarbazone) (Cu-ATSM) were compared by serial microPET imaging
Seven new cucurbitane glucosides, hemslepensides J-P (1-7), and two known compounds, 16,25-O-diacetyl-cucurbitane F (8) and 25-O-acetyl-23,24-dihydrocucurbitacin F (9), were isolated from the tubers of Hemsleya pengxianensis var. jinfushanensis. The structures of 1-7 were elucidated using infrared
In order to investigate the effect of Diacetyl-glucaro-(1-4) (6-3) dilactone to prevent post-operative recurrence of bladder cancer, we estimated the recurrent rate of 34 patients who were diagnosed as having bladder cancer and treated by several surgical methods and oral administration of the drug
The chief chemotherapeutic drug, cisplatin had common bad effects such as nephrotoxicity, ototoxicity and bone marrow depression. This led us to develop a new potential anticancer drug based on nickel metal ion that may be less toxic. Nickel(II) diacetyl monoxime-2-pyridyl hydrazone complex
The retention mechanism of the novel imaging/radiotherapeutic agent, Cu-diacetyl-bis(N4-methylthiosemicarbazone) (Cu-ATSM) in tumor cells was clarified in comparison with that in normal tissue in vitro. With Cu-ATSM and reversed phase HPLC analysis, the reductive metabolism of Cu-ATSM in subcellular
Curcumin, obtained from turmeric, has several biological properties to make it a desirable template for drug development. A lipophilic derivative of curcumin, diacetyl curcumin (DAC) and a hydrophilic derivative, diglutaryl curcumin (DGC) were synthesized and their in vivo analgesic and
BACKGROUND
The aim of this study was to compare (64)Cu-diacetyl-bis(N(4)-methylsemicarbazone) ((64)Cu-ATSM) and (18)FDG PET uptake characteristics and (64)Cu-ATSM autoradiography to pimonidazole immunohistochemistry in spontaneous canine sarcomas and carcinomas.
METHODS
Biopsies were collected from
Intratumor heterogeneity in biologic properties and in relationships between various phenotypes may present a challenge for biologically targeted therapies. Understanding the relationships between different phenotypes in individual tumor types could help inform treatment selection. The goal of this
From January 1988 to December 1994, 66 consecutive blood culture isolates of viridans group streptococci collected from febrile neutropenic cancer patients were tested for antimicrobial susceptibilities by the agar dilution method. The antibiotics studied were erythromycin, clarithromycin,
BACKGROUND
(64)Cu-diacetyl-bis (N(4)-methylthiosemicarbazone) ((64)Cu-ATSM) is a potential imaging agent of hypoxic tumor for use with PET. Recent literature demonstrated that cancer cells expressing CD133, which is a frequently used marker for so-called cancer stem cells or cancer stem cell-like
BACKGROUND
(64)Cu-diacetyl-bis (N(4)-methylthiosemicarbazone) ((64)Cu-ATSM) is an imaging agent for positron emission tomography (PET) that targets hypoxic tumors. (64)Cu-ATSM is also reported to be a potential agent for internal radiotherapy. In a mouse colon carcinoma (Colon-26) model, we have
BACKGROUND
Human and feline head and neck squamous cell carcinoma (HNSCC) share histology, certain molecular features, as well as locally aggressive and highly recurrent clinical behavior. In human HNSCC, the presence of significant hypoxia within these tumors is considered an important factor in
BACKGROUND
Copper(II)-diacetyl-bis(N(4)-methylthiosemicarbazone), or Cu-ATSM, a hypoxia imaging agent, has been shown to be predictive of response to traditional cancer therapies in patients with a wide range of tumors. It is known that the environment of the tumor results in a myriad of
BACKGROUND
Hypoxia and increased glycolytic activity of tumors are associated with poor prognosis. The purpose of this study was to investigate differences in radiotherapy (RT) dose painting based on the uptake of 2-deoxy-2-[(18) F]-fluorodeoxyglucose (FDG) and the proposed hypoxia tracer,
