Analysis of Human Colon Cancer Tissues Using Synchrotron Infrared Radiation and Focal-Plane-Array Based Fourier-Transform Infrared Microspectroscopy Chen-Chieh Chan (張振杰), Pei-Yu Huang (黃佩瑜), Ching-Iue Chen (陳慶曰), and Yao-Chang Lee (李耀昌) National Synchrotron Radiation Research Center, Hsinchu, Taiwan Colorectal tissue samples and colon cancer cells were studied employing synchrotron-radiation-based Fourier-transform infrared microspectroscopy (SR-FT-IMS) and focal-plane-array Fourier-transform infrared (FPA-FTIR) spectroscopy. Infrared spectra of colon tissue revealed that stronger absorption at 1240 cm-1 and 1080 cm-1 for PO2- of DNA as well as 1030 cm-1 for glycogen were found due to a large amount of goblet cells and enteroendocrine cells within normal tissue than that of in the malignant tissue . Furthermore, we utilized membrane invasion culture system (MICS) for investigating the metastasis ability of colorectal cancer cells, SW-403, SW-480, SW-1116 and LoVo. The preliminary results showed that colon adenocarcinoma cell lines SW-403, SW-480 and LoVo were with highly metastatic ability but SW-1116 due to its nature of clustering growth. We also studied the effects of anticancer drug, -lapachone, for inhibiting the ability of DNA replication in different dosage.
