This study quantifies uptake of a fluorescent glucose analog, (2-(N-(7-nitrobenz-2-oxa-1,3-diazol-4yl)amino)-2-deoxyglucose) (2-NBDG), in a large panel of breast cancer cells and demonstrates potential to monitor changes in glycolysis caused by anticancer and endocrine therapies. Expressions of glucose transporter (GLUT 1) and hexokinase (HK I), which phosphorylates 2-NBDG, were measured via we...

Our goal was to determine whether chlorpyrifos oxon, dichlorvos, diisopropylXuorophosphate (DFP), and sarin covalently bind tohuman albumin. Human albumin or plasma was treated with organophosphorus (OP) agent at alkaline pH, digested with pepsin at pH2.3, and analyzed by matrix-assisted laser desorption/ionization time-of-Xight (MALDI-TOF) mass spectrometry. Two singly chargedpeaks...
