The generation of free radicals and redox status is related to various diseases and injuries that are related to radiation, aging, ischemia-reperfusion, and other oxidative factors. In vivo electron spin resonance (ESR) spectroscopy is noninvasive and detects durable free radicals in live animals. ESR spectrometers for in vivo measurements operate at a lower frequency (〜3.5GHz, 〜1GHz, 700MHz, and 〜300MHz) than usual (9-10GHz). Several types of resonators have been designed to minimize the dielectric loss of electromagnetic waves caused by water in animal bodies. In vivo ESR spectroscopy and its imaging have been used to analyze radical generation, redox status, partial pressure of oxygen and other conditions in various disease and injury models related to oxidative stress with probes, such as nitroxyl radicals. Through these applications, the clarification of the mechanisms related to oxidative diseases (injuries) and the accumulation of basic data for radiological cancer therapy are now ongoing. In vivo ESR measurement is performed in about 10 laboratories worldwide, including ours. To introduce in vivo ESR spectroscopy to life scientists, this article reviews the recent progress of in vivo ESR spectroscopy in instrumentation and its application to the life sciences.
