Copenhagen rats with implanted metastatic prostate carcinomas have been treated with the drug alpha-difluoromethylornithine (DFMO), an inhibitor of the enzyme ornithine decarboxylase. In vivo and in vitro 19F NMR observations were then carried out on a variety of organs and tissues. The distribution of the drug strongly favored tumor over surrounding muscle. DFMO, which gives a spectrum similar to that of the pH indicator difluoromethylalanine, has potential for determination of in vivo pH. However, in contrast to the alanine analog, DFMO exhibits a considerably smaller shift dependence in response to pH changes.
