✦ Synopsis


Abstract

The ability of an inserted electrode to detect in vivo NO in tumor was achieved by using a chemically modified Pt/Ir electrode as NO‐sensor and nitroglycerin NTG as NO donor. Enzymatically induced release of NO from NTG was tracked in the tumor, upon intra peritoneal injection of NTG. This approach allowed in vivo monitoring of the bioavailability of NO and could be applied to the in vivo study of candidate anticancer drugs acting on the NO pathways.

Nitric oxide (NO) has been implicated both in regression and progression of tumors due to its production by both tumor cells and infiltrating leukocytes. Ionizing radiation causes the regression of tumors, and can augment the production of NO by macrophages in vitro. We examined the cellular and sys
