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.
