| Outline of Final Research Achievements |
Cu-ATSM labeled with positron emitting radioisotopes is supposed to accumulate into hypoxic tissues and expected to play a critical role in detecting hypoxic cancer and help to predict prognosis and select therapy strategy. The relation between cancer hypoxia and Cu-ATSM accumulation is, however, still ambiguous, hindering the interpretation of Cu-ATSM accumulation and its utilization. In this study, we established cell lines stably expressing newly developed Peredox protein which can report cytoplasmic NADH/NAD+ ratio as green/red fluorescence ratio, and demonstrated that cellular accumulation of Cu-ATSM depends on the cytoplasmic NADH/NAD+ ratio which reflects the redox status of cancer cell cytoplasm and the presence of hypoxia.

| Academic Significance and Societal Importance of the Research Achievements |
細胞質のNADH/NAD+比をレポートする蛍光タンパク質、Peredox、を用いることで、がん細胞への64Cu-ATSM集積が、腫瘍の低酸素によって引き起こされる細胞質のNADH/NADH+比の上昇を反映していることを、生きたがん細胞において示すことが出来た。64Cu-ATSMの腫瘍細胞への集積機序と腫瘍低酸素との関係を明らかにすることで、64Cu-ATSM PETイメージングの予後予測、治療法選択における有用性の根拠となる一つの因子を提案することが出来た。
