pubmed:abstractText |
Healthy and neoplastic colorectal human tissues of as many as 12 patients have been studied, immediately after surgery, by electron spin resonance (ESR) of stable nitroxides at physiological temperature. Cells were maintained in a living state using the McCoy's 5A culture medium. The very low concentration changes of hydrophilic and lipophilic nitroxides allowed us to establish that the response to the oxidative stress induced by the occurrence of nitroxides in healthy and tumor cells was very weak, thus suggesting these compounds are good candidates for contrast enhancement agents in magnetic resonance imaging of colorectal tumor. The analysis of the computed ESR line shape of lipophilic nitroxides in both healthy and malignant cells of the same patient agreed for an unmodified physical status of the membranes where they were mainly localized. The results reported here proved that the comparison between ESR results must be made in tissues from the same patient and that the physical status of the membranes depended more on the patient history than on changes in the colorectal cell membrane fluidity induced by the neoplastic process.
