Likely Common Role of Hypoxia in Driving18F-FDG Uptake in Cancer, Myocardial Ischemia, Inflammation and Infection

Abstract: First introduced in 1976, 18 F-fluorodeoxyglucose ( 18 F-FDG) positron emission tomography (PET) has become an indispensable tool for diagnosis and prognostic evaluation of tumors, heart disease, as well as other conditions, including inflammation and infection. Because 18 F-FDG can accurately reflect the glucose metabolism level of organs and tissues, it is known as a ''century molecule'' and is currently the main agent for PET imaging. The degree of 18 F-FDG uptake by cells is related to both the rate of gl… Show more

“…Although 18 F-FDG is the most routinely used imaging agent in nuclear medicine, it has certain limitations regarding its diagnostic specificity, including low uptake by the liver and gastric mucinous adenocarcinoma. 1,13,14 Consequently, more targets have been developed for PET imaging. TREM2 is a single-pass membrane receptor belonging to the immunoglobulin superfamily and is primarily expressed on the surfaces of microglia and macrophages.…”

“…2. Metabolic parameters for metastatic and reactive hyperplasia lymph nodes of bladder cancer in dual time point imaging Since tumors and hyperplasia may differ in the rate of uptake and excretion of FDG [12,19], delayed imaging may help differentiate lymph node reactive hyperplasia from lymph node metastases [20,21].…”

“…18 F-FDG is an analog of glucose, with the hydroxyl at C-2 position substituted by fluorine-18. 18 F-FDG could reflect the glucose metabolism partly by responding to the hypoxia environment in some tumors, myocardial ischemia, and inflammation [160]. And as the 2-hydroxyl group is necessary for further glycolysis, 18 F-FDG phosphorylated cannot be metabolized and is trapped in the cell until radioactive decay [161].…”
