Methods To Detect Cancer In Animals

US Patent:
2012023, Sep 20, 2012
Filed:
Jun 11, 2010
Appl. No.:
13/377560
Inventors:
Teresa Whei-Mei Fan - Louisville KY, US
Andrew Nicholas Lane - Louisville KY, US
Michael Bousamra - Louisville KY, US
Donald M. Miller - Louisville KY, US
Richard M. Higashi - Prospect KY, US
Assignee:
UNIVERSITY OF LOUISVILLE RESEARCH FOUNDATION, INC. - Louisville KY
International Classification:
G01N 24/08, G01N 33/574, G01N 21/64, G01N 27/62
US Classification:
435 612, 435 34, 435 14, 435 74
Abstract:
Some embodiments of the invention include methods for detecting the presence of cancer in animal tissue in an animal that was administered a labeled molecule. Some of the methods disclosed comprise obtaining an NMR spectrum, an MS spectrum, or both. In some instances, spectra can be taken of a cancer cell extract of the tissue and of a non-cancer cell extract of the tissue. In some embodiments, the amounts of at least one resultant labeled molecule (e.g., a molecule resulting from transformation of the administered labeled molecule) from each extract can be compared to detect the presence of cancer.
