Lactate is a key metabolic driver in oncology and immunology. Even in the presence of physiological oxygen levels, most cancer cells upregulate anaerobic glycolysis, resulting in abnormal lactate...

The Martins Lab developed a new family of Shift Reagents to assess the accumulation of lactate in the TME using CEST MRI. These contrast agents, highly stable and with potential for clinical translation, offer a new point of view into the compartmentalization of tumor metabolism.

Sometimes, the best discoveries start with curiosity! A few years ago, a motivated high school student joined the lab to explore lanthanide-induced shifts in metabolites. What happened next took us by surprise… 🧵👇

I asked the student to mix metabolites with an inglorious contrast agent and check CEST signals at wider NMR regions. Expecting maybe one bound water signal, we never imagined seeing the OH from lactate shift so clearly away from water—with a beautifully defined CEST!

That unexpected result sparked years of work @ChiaffaRemy @uni_tue @OranoMed @WSIC_Tuebingen @CoE_iFIT developed better, safer agents and now have a clear way to detect extracellular lactate in tissues—including tumors. A small experiment led to something really cool!
