| Abstract |
Tyrosine-kinase inhibitor (TKI) targeting angiogenesis improves the prognosis of patients with metastatic renal cell carcinoma (RCC), but its effect is temporary. In order to understand the mechanism by which RCC acquires resistance to TKI, we investigated the change of glucose accumulation in RCC by FDG PET/CT when they demonstrated progression disease (PD) against TKI. We monitored the FDG accumulation in RCC of 38 patients treated with TKI by 162 PET/CT sequentially until they were judged to demonstrate PD. Standardized uptake value (SUV), a simplified index of tissue FDG accumulation rate, was measured, and the sequential changes of max SUVmax (the highest SUV in an individual patient) was analyzed. Additionally, the expression of glucose transporter 1 (GLUT-1) and associated proteins in 786-O cells cultured under hypoxia were analyzed. The 10 patients with RCC which FDG accumulation was accelerated after beginning of TKI treatment demonstrated PD soon. The other 28 patients with RCC which FDG accumulation was suppressed by TKI showed longer progression-free survival (3.6 months vs 6.5 months, P = 0.0026), but this suppression in most cases (96%) was temporary and FDG accumulation was accelerated when tumor demonstrated PD. Interestingly, the FDG accumulation at PD was higher than that before TKI treatment in the half cases. The acceleration of FDG accumulation was suppressed by following treatment by mammalian target of rapamycin (mTOR) inhibitor. Additionally, in vitro assay demonstrated that the expression of GLUT-1 was increased in the RCC cells surviving under hypoxia condition via mTOR pathway. The acceleration of glucose accumulation dependent on mTOR in RCC assessed by FDG PET/CT demonstrated acquisition of resistance to TKI. FDG PET/CT had potential as an assessment method monitoring not only the initial response but also following status of RCC during TKI treatment. UMIN0000008141 , 11 Jun 2012.

Attention Score in Context
This research output has an Altmetric Attention Score of 1. This is our high-level measure of the quality and quantity of online attention that it has received. This Attention Score, as well as the ranking and number of research outputs shown below, was calculated when the research output was last mentioned on 31 October 2017.
All research outputs
#20,451,228
of 23,007,053 outputs
Outputs from BMC Cancer
#6,530
of 8,358 outputs
Outputs of similar age
#356,937
of 421,828 outputs
Outputs of similar age from BMC Cancer
#88
of 108 outputs
Altmetric has tracked 23,007,053 research outputs across all sources so far. This one is in the 1st percentile – i.e., 1% of other outputs scored the same or lower than it.
So far Altmetric has tracked 8,358 research outputs from this source. They receive a mean Attention Score of 4.3. This one is in the 1st percentile – i.e., 1% of its peers scored the same or lower than it.
Older research outputs will score higher simply because they've had more time to accumulate mentions. To account for age we can compare this Altmetric Attention Score to the 421,828 tracked outputs that were published within six weeks on either side of this one in any source. This one is in the 1st percentile – i.e., 1% of its contemporaries scored the same or lower than it.
We're also able to compare this research output to 108 others from the same source and published within six weeks on either side of this one. This one is in the 1st percentile – i.e., 1% of its contemporaries scored the same or lower than it.
