(13)C NMR (nuclear magnetic resonance) spectroscopy of extracts from patient tumor samples provides rich information about metabolism. However, in isocitrate dehydrogenase (IDH)-mutant gliomas, (13)C labeling is obscured in oncometabolite 2-hydroxyglutaric acid (2 HG) by glutamate and glutamine, prompting development of a simple method to resolve the metabolites. J-coupled multiplets in 2 HG were similar to glutamate and glutamine and could be clearly resolved at pH 6. A cryogenically cooled (13)C probe, but not J-resolved heteronuclear single quantum coherence spectroscopy, significantly improved detection of 2 HG. These methods enable the monitoring of (13)C-(13)C spin-spin couplings in 2 HG expressing IDH-mutant gliomas.
对患者肿瘤样本提取物进行的碳-13核磁共振((13)C NMR)光谱分析可提供有关新陈代谢的丰富信息。然而,在异柠檬酸脱氢酶(IDH)突变型胶质瘤中,谷氨酸和谷氨酰胺会使肿瘤代谢物2-羟基戊二酸(2HG)中的碳-13标记变得模糊不清,这促使人们开发一种简单方法来解析这些代谢物。2HG中的J耦合多重峰与谷氨酸和谷氨酰胺相似,在pH值为6时可以清晰分辨。低温冷却的碳-13探头,而非J分辨异核单量子相干光谱,能显著提高对2HG的检测。这些方法能够监测表达IDH突变型胶质瘤的2HG中的碳-13-碳-13自旋-自旋耦合。
