The bioreactor techniques combined with 13C MRS are an
important tool to study cancer cell metabolism. Modeling
of intracellular MRS isotopomer data obtained during
perfusion with 13C labeled substrates allows
quantitative determination of transport and metabolic
parameters in vivo/in situ. In this work, we apply a
novel 13C metabolic flux analysis technique to elucidate
cancer metabolism bionetwork and calculate fluxes
through important cancer metabolic pathways.
