Selective modification of fluciclovine (18F) transport in prostate carcinoma xenografts
We investigated if previously demonstrated inhibition of fluciclovine ( 18 F) in vitro could be replicated in a PC3-Luc xenograft mouse model. Following intratumoral injection of 2-aminobicyclo-(2,2,1)-heptane-2-carboxylic acid (BCH), alpha-(methylamino)isobutyric acid (MeAIB) or saline, fluciclovin...

Summary: | We investigated if previously demonstrated inhibition of fluciclovine (
18
F) in vitro could be replicated in a PC3-Luc xenograft mouse model. Following intratumoral injection of 2-aminobicyclo-(2,2,1)-heptane-2-carboxylic acid (BCH), alpha-(methylamino)isobutyric acid (MeAIB) or saline, fluciclovine PET tumor-to-background activity was 43.6 (± 5.4)% and 25.3 (± 5.2)% lower in BCH (
n
= 6) and MeAIB (
n
= 5) injected PC3 Luc xenografts, respectively, compared to saline-injected controls (
n
= 2). Partial inhibition of fluciclovine uptake by BCH and MeAIB can be demonstrated in vivo similar to previous in vitro modeling. |
