In this study we investigated the metabolic changes that occurred when a renal cell carcinoma patient-derived xenograft was propagated in tissue slice culture or primary cell culture at varying pO₂ levels to understand the attributes and limitations of each of the model systems for studying the metabolic underpinnings of this pathology using high resolution NMR. This data indicates drastically altered metabolism at varying pO₂ and between each model system.
