Role of thymidine kinase 1 phosphorylation on 3'-deoxy-3'-[18F]-fluorothymidine uptake by cancer cells : implication for Positron Emission Tomography

Uncontrolled cell proliferation is one of the hallmarks of cancer and its inhibition is desired in cancer therapy. The thymidine analogue 3'-deoxy-3'-[18F]-fluorothymidine ([18F]FLT) is used to image tumour proliferation by positron emission tomography (PET). To be retained in cells, [18F]...
