Previous studies suggest that isocitrate dehydrogenase 1 (IDH1) mutation plays a significant role in the cancerous metabolome. Among other alternations, expression of branched chain amino-acid transaminase 1 (BCAT1) is reduced, causing a decrease of α-ketoglutaric acid (αKG) to glutamic acid metabolic pathway. More importantly, the mutated IDH1 catalyzes a reaction of αKG to the oncometabolite 2-hydroxyglutarate. In this study we proved that these metabolic changes can be measured using hyperpolarized [1-¹³C]α-KG and ¹³Cmetabolic magnetic resonance spectroscopy (¹³CMMRS) in acute myeloid leukemia cell line in vitro.
