1 Metabolite profiling of DFMO-treated ApcMin mouse tumors.
Metabolite profiling of DFMO-treated ApcMin mouse tumors. ApcMin mice were given DFMO by intraperitoneal injection (40 mg/kg daily) or vehicle (saline) for 21 days and intestinal tumors were microdissected and collected (3 tumors/mouse, n = 4 mice/group). Metabolites were extracted from tumors for analysis by high-performance liquid chromatography, as described in Methods. Along with accumulation of DFMO itself and expected decreases in polyamines, DFMO-treated tissues showed altered expression of methionine cycle and nucleotide/nucleoside levels, similar to in vitro findings (Fig. 3). Notably, this included markedly reduced thymidine levels. *, P < 0.05 by unpaired t test, comparing tumors from untreated and DFMO-treated ApcMin mice. N.D., not detected. Mavee Witherspoon et al.
