Abstract:
Objective:To explore the effect of different glucose concentrations on the uptake of 18F-FDG and the expression of glucose transport protein(Glut)-1 and Glut-3 in non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC). Methods:NSCLC cell line A549 cells were cultured in DMEM medium with glucose concentrations of 3.9, 5.0, 6.1, 8.3 and 11.1 mmol/L respectively for 24 h. Then 3.7×10 4 Bq 18F-FDG was added into each group and γ counter was used to measure the radioactivity count 1 h later. Western blot was used to examine the expression of Glut-1 and Glut-3. One-way analysis of variance and Bonferroni test were used for data analysis. The correlation was analyzed by Pearson correlation analysis. Results:The 18F-FDG uptake rates in 3.9, 5.0, 6.1, 8.3 and 11.1 mmol/L groups were (4.89±0.83)%, (4.07±0.23)%, (3.66±0.29)%, (3.34±0.16)% and (3.29±0.24)%, respectively ( F=7.05, P=0.006). Compared with 3.9 mmol/L group, the 18F-FDG uptake rates in 8.3 and 11.1 mmol/L groups were reduced and differences were statistically significant ( P values: 0.013, 0.010), while there were no statistical differences between the other groups ( P values: 0.057-0.999). The relative expressions of Glut-1 and Glut-3 in each group were 1.17±0.10, 1.00±0.00, 0.84±0.07, 0.70±0.18, 0.61±0.16, and 1.14±0.05, 1.00±0.00, 0.86±0.12, 0.71±0.05, 0.40±0.06, respectively ( F values: 10.26 and 51.94, P values: 0.001, <0.001). Moreover, the 18F-FDG uptake rates were positively correlated with the expression of Glut-1 and Glut-3 ( r values: 0.775 and 0.744, both P=0.001). Conclusions:When the glucose concentration fluctuates within 3.9-11.1 mmol/L, the change of glucose will affect the 18F-FDG uptake rate and the expression of Glut-1 and Glut-3 in A549 cells. Moreover, the 18F-FDG uptake rate is related to the expressions of Glut-1 and Glut-3.
