| Research Abstract |
Fvourable effects of cytotoxic chemotherapy for tumours are characterized by the reduced accumulation of radiotracers such as ^<99m>Tc sestamibi (MIBI). Antiangiogenic therapy is primarily cytostatic consequently, its influence on tracer accumulation may differ from that of cytotoxic treatments.
Ati-angiogenic therapy employing 2-methoxyestradiol was administered in mice bearing subcutaneous xenografts of LS180 colon cancer cells. The effects of chemotherapy with 5-fluorouracil were examined as a cytotoxic counterpart. Treatments were conducted for 4 days from day 8. Distribution of ^<99m>Tc-MIBI and ^<99m>Tc-HL91, a hypoxic marker, was observed on days 8 and 12. Oxygen tension (PO_2) in tumours was measured by a microelectrode. Cellular uptake of tracers was examined in vitro in normoxic and hypoxic conditions.
^<99m>Tc-MIBI accumulation decreased with increasing tumour weight when no treatment was conducted. Tumour growth was suppressed by anti-angiogenic therapy and chemotherapy. ^<99m>Tc-MIBI accumulation in tumours decreased after chemotherapy as compared to pretherapeutic values, whereas accumulation of ^<99m>Tc-HL91 increased. In contrast, accumulation of tracers did not significantly change after anti-angiogenic therapy as compared to that observed pre-therapeutically. Tumour PO_2 decreased with increasing tumour volume when no treatment was conducted. Chemotherapy reduced PO_2 in tumours. PO_2 in tumours treated with anti-angiogenic therapy was as high as that observed before treatment. 2-Methoxyestradiol or 5-fluorouracil did not significantly affect tracer accumulation in cells under both normoxic and hypoxic conditions in vitro.
These findings indicate that scintigraphic assessment of therapeutic efficacy of anti-angiogenic therapy should be performed from a perspective distinct from that of cytotoxic treatment.
