The dynamics of phosphomonoesters, phosphodiesters, Pi, ATP, ADP, NAD(H+) and uridine diphosphoglucose (UDPG) levels in rat liver upon sharp oscillations in the rates of protein and nucleic acid biosynthesis induced by a sublethal++ dose of cycloheximide was studied, using the 31P-NMR method. The results obtained with preparations of native liver are unaffected by fractionation, homogenization and chemical extraction procedures. It was demonstrated that oscillations of Pi, ATP and UDPG levels in liver cells reflect the changes in the energy consumption and intracellular energy-linked processes (e.g., glycolysis, oxidative phosphorylation, glycogen synthesis and consumption) under conditions of variable macromolecular synthesis rates. The oscillations in phosphomonoesters and phosphodiesters levels are mainly due to cycloheximide-induced lipid metabolism disturbances.

Article Synopsis
  • The study used Phosphorus Magnetic Resonance Spectroscopy (P MRS) to analyze brain metabolites related to energy and cell membrane production in children and adults across various age groups.
  • Results showed that children had higher phosphomonoesters (PMEs) and γαATP levels, while adults had more phosphodiesters (PDEs) and lower intracellular pH, indicating different metabolic profiles based on age.
  • These findings suggest that as individuals age, there's a reduction in membrane synthesis and energy consumption, with a notable decline in metabolic processes occurring from childhood to older adulthood.

P magnetic resonance spectroscopy (MRS) can spectrally resolve metabolites involved in phospholipid metabolism whose levels are altered in many cancers. Ultra-high field facilitates the detection of phosphomonoesters (PMEs) and phosphodiesters (PDEs) with increased SNR and spectral resolution. Utilizing multi-echo MR spectroscopic imaging (MRSI) further enhances SNR and enables T information estimation per metabolite.

Phosphorus magnetic resonance spectroscopy (P-MRS) is applied for non-invasive studies of neuroenergetic metabolism in neurodegenerative diseases. However, the findings are inconsistent and have not yet been tested in meta-analyses. To address this gap, we performed a systematic review of 29 studies and conducted meta-analyses for 9 studies on Alzheimer's disease (AD, n = 140 patients), 9 studies on Parkinson's disease (PD, n = 183 patients), 3 studies on Progressive Supranuclear Palsy (PSP, n = 42 patients), and 2 studies on Multiple System Atrophy (MSA, n = 24 patients).

Methods for early treatment response evaluation to systemic therapy of liver metastases are lacking. Tumor tissue often exhibits an increased ratio of phosphomonoesters to phosphodiesters (PME/PDE), which can be noninvasively measured by phosphorus magnetic resonance spectroscopy (P MRS), and may be a marker for early therapy response assessment in liver metastases. However, with commonly used P surface coils for liver P MRS, the liver is not fully covered, and metastases may be missed.
