Hyperpolarized [1-13C]pyruvate solutions prepared
without persistent radicals were used to study brain
metabolism in rat model of human glioblastoma. Real time
in vivo pyruvate metabolism was acquired with large
signal-to-noise ratio that allows studying the kinetic
of the LDH-mediated conversion of pyruvate to lactate in
the tumor. The use of completely endogenous sample
compositions through all the steps of the dissolution
DNP experiment can facilitate the clinical application
of hyperpolarized pyruvate for tumor diagnostic and
treatment response as the filtration step is eliminated.
