Mutations in Isocitrate dehydrogenase (IDH1) have been reported in over 70% of low-grade gliomas and secondary glioblastomas. In this study, the metabolism of live U87IDHmut and U87IDHwt cells was probed by thermally and Hyper-polarized (HP) 13C-MRS. HP-1,2-13C Piruvic Acid MRS showed a drop in 5-13C glutamate production and an increase in lactate and alanine production. 1-13C glucose infusion resulted in a drop of glutamate in U87IDHmut cells whereas glucose uptake was not significant difference. The increase in lactate and alanine and the decrease of glutamate production in U87IDHmut cells indicate that TCA down-regulation is a major effect of IDH mutation.
