研究目的
To design and synthesize a Pt(II) metallacycle-based NIR-II theranostic nanoprobe for tumor diagnosis and image-guided therapy, aiming to overcome limitations of poor photostability, low tumor uptake, and limited penetration depth in existing probes.
研究成果
The designed Pt(II) metallacycle-based NIR-II theranostic nanoprobe 1 exhibits good photostability, passive targeting via EPR effect, high antitumor efficacy with minimal side effects compared to cisplatin, and improved imaging quality in the NIR-II region, making it a promising platform for cancer diagnosis and therapy.
研究不足
The quantum yield of nanoprobe 1 in water is relatively low at ~0.03%, which may limit brightness in some applications. The study is focused on specific cancer cell lines and mouse models, and further research is needed for broader applicability and human trials.
1:Experimental Design and Method Selection:
The nanoprobe 1 was synthesized by mixing Pt(II) metallacycle 2, NIR-II molecular dye 3, and DSPE-mPEG5000 in a 1:1:8 weight ratio. Methods included NMR, ESI-TOF-MS, TEM, DLS, UV/Vis spectroscopy, fluorescence imaging, ICP-MS, cytotoxicity assays, and in vivo studies in mouse models.
2:Sample Selection and Data Sources:
HepG2 cancer cells and L929 normal cells were used for in vitro studies. C57BL/6 mice and HepG2 tumor-bearing nude mice were used for in vivo imaging and therapy evaluation.
3:List of Experimental Equipment and Materials:
Equipment included Bruker 400-MHz NMR spectrometer, Applied Biosystems 4700 MALDI TOF mass spectrometer, PekinElmer Lambda 25 UV-Vis spectrophotometer, NIR-II fluorescence microscope and imaging system from Suzhou NIR-Optics Technologies, Malvern Zetasizer Nano ZS for DLS, Dionex HPLC system, Hitachi TEM system, and ICP-MS. Materials included precursors 4 and 5, dye 3, DSPE-mPEG5000, and cisplatin as control.
4:Experimental Procedures and Operational Workflow:
Synthesis and characterization of rhomboid 2 and dye 3, formation of nanoprobe 1, stability tests in PBS with FBS, photostability tests, in vitro cell imaging and uptake studies using ICP-MS and fluorescence microscopy, in vivo NIR-II imaging of lymphatic system and brain vessels, pharmacokinetics studies, and antitumor efficacy evaluation in tumor-bearing mice with body weight and survival monitoring.
5:Data Analysis Methods:
Data were analyzed using statistical methods for cytotoxicity (MTT assay), fluorescence intensity measurements, ICP-MS for Pt quantification, and imaging analysis for S/N ratios and resolution.
