MRSI of hyperpolarized (HP)
13
C-labeled
compounds is a powerful new approach for localized
non-invasive studies of tissue metabolism in vivo. The
purpose of this study was to characterize
tissue-specific alterations in the metabolism of HP
gluconeogenic precursors
13
C-lactate
and
13
C-pyruvate
by rat liver and kidneys in response to fasting. Seven
rats were studied by 13C MRSI of both HP
13
C-lactate
and
13
C-pyruvate
in both normal fed and 24h fasting states. Significant
metabolic modulations associated with fasting were
identified in the localized metabolite data resulting
from these spectroscopic imaging experiments.
