The aim of this study was to investigate whether compartmental modeling of 1-C-11-glucose PET kinetics can be used for noninvasive measurements of myocardial glucose metabolism beyond its initial extraction. Methods: 1-C-11-Glucose and U-(13)Cglucose were injected simultaneously into 22 mongrel dogs under a wide range of metabolic states; this was followed by 1 h of PET data acquisition. Heart tissue samples were analyzed for C-13-glycogen content (nmol/g). Arterial and coronary sinus blood samples (ART/CS) were analyzed for glucose (mu mol/mL), C-11-glucose, (CO2)-C-11, and C-11-total acidic metabolites (C-11-lactate [LA] + (CO2)-C-11) (counts/min/mL) and were used to calculate myocardial fractions of (a) glucose and 1-C-11-glucose extractions, EF(GLU) and EF(C-11-GLU); (b) C-11-GLU and C-11-LA oxidation, OF((11) C-GLU) and OF((11) C-LA); (c) C-11-glycolsysis, GCF(C-11-GLU); and (d) C-11-glycogen content, GNF(C-11-GLU). On the basis of these measurements, a compartmental model (M) that accounts for the contribution of exogenous C-11-LA to myocardial C-11 activity was implemented to measure M-EF(GLU), M-GCF(GLU), M-OF(GLU), M-GNF(GLU), and the fraction of myocardial glucose stored as glycogen M-GNF(GLU)/M-EF(GLU)). Results: ART/CS data showed the following: (a) A strong correlation was found between EF(C-11-GLU) and EF(GLU) (r = 0.92, P < 0.0001; slope = 0.95, P = not significantly different from 1). (b) In interventions with high glucose extraction and oxidation, the contribution of OF(C-11-GLU) to total oxidation was higher than that of OF(C-11-LA) (P < 0.01). In contrast, in interventions in which glucose uptake and oxidation were inhibited, OF(C-11-LA) was higher than OF(C-11-GLU) (P < 0.05). (c) A strong correlation was found between GNF(C-11-GLU)/EF(GLU) and direct measurements of fractional C-13-glycogen content, (r = 0.96, P < 0.0001). Model-derived PET measurements of M-EF(GLU), M-GCF(GLU), and M-OF(GLU) strongly correlated with EF(GLU) (slope = 0.92, r = 0.95, P < 0.0001), GCF(C-11-GLU) (slope = 0.79, r = 0.97, P < 0.0001), and OF(C-11-GLU) (slope = 0.70, r = 0.96, P < 0.0001), respectively. M-GNF(GLU)/M-EF(GLU) strongly correlated with fractional C-13-content (r = 0.92, P < 0.0001). Conclusion: Under nonischemic conditions, it is feasible to measure myocardial glucose metabolism noninvasively beyond its initial extraction with PET using 1-C-11-glucose and a compartmental modeling approach that takes into account uptake and oxidation of secondarily labeled exogenous C-11-lactate.
