Dynamic response of breast tumor oxygenation to
hyperoxic respiratory challenge monitored with
three oxygen-sensitive parameters

Yueqing Gu, Vincent A. Bourke, Jae G. Kim, Anca Constantinescu, Ralph P. Mason,and Hanli Liu The simultaneous measurement of three oxygen-sensitive parameters ͓arterial hemoglobin oxygen sat-uration ͑SaO ͒, tumor vascular-oxygenated hemoglobin concentration ͓͑HbO ͔͒, and tumor oxygen ten- sion ͑pO ͔͒ in response to hyperoxic respiratory challenge is demonstrated in rat breast tumors. The effects of two hyperoxic gases ͓oxygen and carbogen ͑5% CO and 95% O ͔͒ were compared, by use of two groups of Fisher rats with subcutaneous 13762NF breast tumors implanted in pedicles on the foreback.
Two different gas-inhalation sequences were compared, i.e., air– carbogen–air– oxygen–air and air–oxygen–air– carbogen–air.
The results demonstrate that both of the inhaled, hyperoxic gases signifi- cantly improved the tumor oxygen status.
All three parameters displayed similar dynamic response to hyperoxic gas interventions, but with different response times: the fastest for arterial SaO , followed by biphasic changes in tumor vascular ͓HbO ͔, and then delayed responses for pO . Both of the gases induced similar changes in vascular oxygenation and regional tissue pO in the rat tumors, and changes in ͓HbO ͔ and mean pO showed a linear correlation with large standard deviations, which presumably results from global versus local measurements.
Indeed, the pO data revealed heterogeneous regional response to hyperoxic interventions.
Although preliminary near-infrared measurements had been dem- onstrated previously in this model, the addition of the pO optical fiber probes provides a link between the noninvasive relative measurements of vascular phenomena based on endogenous reporter molecules,with the quantitative, albeit, invasive pO determinations.
