This study uses dynamic hyperpolarized [1-13C]pyruvate magnetic resonance spectroscopic imaging (MRSI) to estimate differences in glycolytic metabolism between highly metastatic (4T1, n = 7) and metastatically dormant (4T07, n = 7) murine breast cancer models. The apparent conversion rate of pyruvate-to-lactate (kPL) and lactate-to-pyruvate area-under-the-curve ratio (AUCL/P) were estimated from the metabolite images and compared with biochemical metabolic measures and immunohistochemistry (IHC). A non-significant trend of increasing kPL (p = 0.17) and AUCL/P (p = 0.11) from 4T07 to 4T1 tumors was observed. No significant differences in tumor IHC lactate dehydrogenase-A (LDHA), monocarboxylate transporter-1 (MCT1), cluster of differentiation 31 (CD31), and hypoxia inducible factor-α (HIF-1α), tumor lactate-dehydrogenase (LDH) activity, or blood lactate or glucose levels were found between the two tumor lines. However, AUCL/P was significantly correlated with tumor LDH activity (ρspearman = 0.621, p = 0.027) and blood glucose levels (ρspearman = −0.474, p = 0.042). kPL displayed a similar, non-significant trend for LDH activity (ρspearman = 0.480, p = 0.114) and blood glucose levels (ρspearman = −0.414, p = 0.088). Neither kPL nor AUCL/P were significantly correlated with blood lactate levels or tumor LDHA or MCT1. The significant positive correlation between AUCL/P and tumor LDH activity indicates the potential of AUCL/P as a biomarker of glycolytic metabolism in breast cancer models. However, the lack of a significant difference between in vivo tumor metabolism for the two models suggest similar pyruvate-to-lactate conversion despite differing metastatic potential. |
