    The average metabolite ratio was 0.28 ± 0.02 in TRAMP tumor, versus 0.11 ± 0.02 in surrounding benign tissue (n = 4), representing a 2.5-fold difference. The corresponding tumor-to-nontumor (18)F-FDG uptake ratio was 3.0. The total glutathione was 5.1 ± 0.4 mM in tumor and 1.0 ± 0.2 mM in normal...
