We constructed a doxycycline-regulated bidirectional vector harboring a reporter gene encoding red fluorescence protein (RFP) and a tumor-suppressor-protein (wild-type p53), and demonstrated their inducible and coordinated expression, p53 mediated-downstream signaling, and its effects both in vitro and in vivo. Next, we evaluated glucose utilization in cells with and without exogenous p53 expression by measuring the cellular uptakes of [14C]FDG, indirectly verified the transferred p53 overexpression in xenograft tumor via simultaneous expression of RFP detectable with an in vivo optical imaging system, and subsequently performed FDG-PET imaging. Cells or tumors with p53 overexpression exhibited decreased uptake of [14C]FDG in cellular assay and [18F]FDG in PET imaging. Thus, by coupling with bidirectional vector, controllable p53 transfer was achieved and the capability of FDG-PET to assess the therapeutic response to p53 gene therapy was evidently confirmed, which may have an impact on the improvement of p53 gene therapy., 第69回日本癌学会学術総会}, title = {Evaluating regulable transferred-p53 expression and therapeutic response in tumor model by optical and FDG-PET imaging}, year = {2010} }
