Polyunsaturated omega-6 fatty acids (PUFAs) have been shown to promote prostate cancer. Here, we describe the use of HRMAS NMR spectroscopy to detect omega-6 PUFA species in prostate tissues.
Samples originating from non-malignant (n = 54) and malignant (n = 27) prostate tissues (from 27 prostatectomized men) were studied by 1D (1)H, 2D (1)H-(1)H and (1)H-(13)C HRMAS NMR spectroscopy followed by histopathological characterization.
HRMAS NMR proved to be a powerful, non-destructive method to identify and characterize PUFAs. The omega-6 PUFA was found in 15% of examined human prostate tumors.
It is possible to detect PUFAs in prostate tissues using our NMR-based spectroscopic approach.
多不饱和ω-6 脂肪酸(PUFAs)已被证明可促进前列腺癌的发生。在这里,我们描述了使用 HRMAS NMR 光谱法检测前列腺组织中 ω-6 PUFAs 种类的方法。
使用 1D(1)H、2D(1)H-(1)H 和(1)H-(13)C HRMAS NMR 光谱法对源自非恶性(n = 54)和恶性(n = 27)前列腺组织(来自 27 名前列腺切除术患者)的样本进行了研究,并进行了组织病理学特征分析。
HRMAS NMR 被证明是一种强大的、非破坏性的方法,可用于鉴定和表征 PUFAs。在 15%的检查人类前列腺肿瘤中发现了 ω-6 PUFAs。
使用我们基于 NMR 的光谱方法可以在前列腺组织中检测到 PUFAs。
