In Vitro and In Vivo Characterization of a Dual-Function Green Fluorescent Protein–HSV1-Thymidine Kinase Reporter Gene Driven by the Human Elongation Factor 1α Promoter by Gary D. Luker, Kathryn E. Luker, Vijay Sharma, Christina M. Pica, Julie L. Dahlheimer, Joe A. Ocheskey, Timothy J. Fahrner, Jeffrey Milbrandt, David Piwnica-Worms

“…Furthermore, in high ETK cells, net retention of various radiolabeled nucleoside analogues varied; the rank order was 8-[ 3 H]GCV < 9-(4-fluoro-3-hydroxymethylbutyl)guanine ([ 18 F]FHBG) ≈ 8-[ 3 H]penciclovir (8-[ 3 H]PCV) < 2′-fluoro-2′-deoxy-5-iodouracil-beta- d -arabinofuranoside (2-[ 14 C]FIAU). Xenograft tumors of ETK cells in vivo accumulated 2.5-fold more 8-[ 3 H]GCV per gram of tissue and showed greater fluorescence from EGFP than control DU145 cells, demonstrating that the reporter gene functioned in vivo. …”
