Selective Detection of Trinitrophenol by Amphiphilic Dimethylaminopyridine-Appended Zn(II)phthalocyanines at the Near-Infrared Region
摘要: Novel amphiphilic Zn(II)phthalocyanines (ZnPcs) peripherally substituted with four and eight dimethylaminopyridinium units (ZnPc1 and ZnPc2) were synthesized by cyclotetramerization of the corresponding phthalonitriles. The effect of aggregation and photophysical (fluorescence quantum yields and lifetimes) and photochemical (singlet oxygen generation and photodegradation under light irradiation) properties was investigated. The chemosensing ability of ZnPcs toward explosive nitroaromatic compounds was explored in aqueous medium. This study demonstrates that ZnPc1 and ZnPc2 show fluorescence quenching behavior upon interaction with different nitro analytes and show unprecedented selectivity toward 2,4,6-trinitrophenol with a limit of detection (LOD) of 0.7?1.1 ppm with a high quenching rate constant (Ksv) of 1.6?2.02 × 105. The near-infrared (NIR) fluorescence in thin films was quenched efficiently because of the photoinduced electron-transfer process through strong intermolecular π?π and electrostatic interactions. The sensing process is highly reversible and free from the interference of other commonly encountered nitro analytes. Further, experiments were performed to demonstrate the use of ZnPcs as efficient heterogeneous photocatalysts in the reduction of nitro explosives. The smart dual performance of multicharged ZnPcs in aqueous media quantifies them as attractive candidates in developing sensor materials at the NIR region and to possibly convert the toxic explosives into useful scaffolds. These results provide an interesting perspective toward elaboration of stable fluorescent systems for the selective sensing behavior of nitro explosives and their facile heterogeneous catalytic behavior in the reduction reactions.

NIR-Fluorescent Multidye Silica Nanoparticles with Large Stokes Shifts for Versatile Biosensing Applications
摘要: We have synthesized and characterized of a series of single and multidye copolymerized nanoparticles with large to very large Stokes shifts (100 to 255 nm) for versatile applications as standalone or multiplexed probes in biological matrices. Nanoparticles were prepared via the St?ber method and covalently copolymerized with various combinations of three dyes, including one novel aminocyanine dye. Covalently encapsulated dyes exhibited no significant leakage from the nanoparticle matrix after more than 200 days of storage in ethanol. Across multiple batches of nanoparticles with varying dye content, the average yields and average radii were found to be highly reproducible. Furthermore, the batch to batch variability in the relative amounts of dye incorporated was small (relative standard deviations <2.3%). Quantum yields of dye copolymerized nanoparticles were increased 50% to 1000% relative to those of their respective dye-silane conjugates, and fluorescence intensities were enhanced by approximately three orders of magnitude. Prepared nanoparticles were surface modified with polyethylene glycol and biotin and bound to streptavidin microspheres as a proof of concept. Under single wavelength excitation, microsphere-bound nanoparticles displayed readily distinguishable fluorescence signals at three different emission wavelengths, indicating their potential applications to multicolor sensing. Furthermore, nanoparticles modified with polyethylene glycol and biotin demonstrated hematoprotective qualities and reduced nonspecific binding of serum proteins, indicating their potential suitability to in vivo imaging applications.

Optical Imaging of Triple-Negative Breast Cancer Cells in Xenograft Athymic Mice Using an ICAM-1-Targeting Small-Molecule Probe
摘要: Purpose: The development of early, accurate diagnostic strategies for triple-negative breast cancer (TNBC) remains a significant challenge. Intercellular adhesion molecule-1 (ICAM-1) overexpressed in human TNBC cells is a potential molecular target and biomarker for diagnosis. In this study, small-molecule probe (denoted as γ3-Cy5.5) constructed with a short 17-mer linear peptide (γ3) and near-infrared fluorescence (NIRF) dye cyanine 5.5 (Cy5.5) was used to detect the expression of ICAM-1 in vitro and in vivo, and to diagnose TNBC via NIRF imaging. Procedures: Western blotting and flow cytometric analysis were used for the detection of ICAM-1 expression in MDA-MB-231 and MCF-7 cells. The cytotoxicity of the small-molecule probe γ3-Cy5.5 was detected using the CCK8 assay. The in vitro targeting of the small-molecule probe γ3-Cy5.5 was verified via flow cytometry and a laser scanning confocal microscope. Finally, the targeting of small-molecule probe in vivo and ex vivo was observed by NIRF imaging. Results: Western blotting and flow cytometry demonstrate that ICAM-1 was highly expressed in the MDA-MB-231 TNBC cell line. Laser confocal microscopy and flow cytometry results show that TNBC cells have an increased cellular uptake of γ3-Cy5.5 compared to the control probe γ3S-Cy5.5. With in vivo NIRF, a significantly higher Cy5.5 signal appeared in the tumors of mice administered γ3-Cy5.5 than those treated with γ3S-Cy5.5. The target-to-background ratio observed on the NIRF images was significantly higher in the γ3-Cy5.5 group (10.2, 13.6) compared with the γ3S-Cy5.5 group (4.4, 4.0) at 1 and 2 h, respectively. Conclusions: This is the first report of the use of ICAM-1-specific small-molecule probe for in vivo NIRF optical imaging of TNBC. This method provides a noninvasive and specific strategy for the early diagnosis of TNBC.

Near-Infrared fluorescence chemosensor based on isothiocyanate-aza-BODIPY for cyanide detection in ppb level: Applications in buffer media and living cell imaging
摘要: A near-infrared chemodosimeter based on an aza-BODIPY dye was designed and synthesized. The sensor contains isothiocyanate groups for cyanide ion sensing. The sensing function was illustrated via the fluorescence changes in near-infrared frequencies as well as chromogenic change which could be easily visualized with a detection limit of 19 ppb. The sensor provides high selectivity to CN? and discriminates other anions such as CH3COO?, HPO4 2?, HSO4 ?, NO3 ?, Cl?, F?, Br?, I?, ClO3 ?, CO3 2?, SO4 2?, and phenylalanine (Phe) in 50% PBS buffer/acetonitrile at physiological pH. The potential of the sensor for CN? detection in both aqueous buffer solutions and living cells imaging were demonstrated.

Near-infrared fluorescence laparoscopy of the ureter with three preclinical dyes in a pig model
摘要: Background Ureteric injury is reported to occur in 1–7.6% of colorectal surgeries. To reduce the incidence of ureteral injury, it is essential to identify the ureters. The use of near-infrared fluorescence (NIRF) imaging with intravenously administered dyes might be of added value for ureteral visualization during laparoscopy. The aim of this study is to assess the performance of three preclinical dyes; IRDye? 800BK, IRDye? 800NOS and IRDye? 800CW, for near-infrared fluorescence laparoscopy of the ureter in pigs. Methods In three female Dutch landrace pigs, the new dyes were evaluated. In each pig, 1 dye was tested using a 6-mg intravenous dose in a concentration of 1?mg/ml. Imaging was performed in fluorescence mode and white light mode with a laparoscopic imaging system. In order to further evaluate the dyes, an ex?vivo imaging experiment was performed, in which 8 decreasing concentrations per dye, diluted in PBS, were evaluated in a transparent test tube with NIRF mode at a distance of 1, 5 and 10?cm from the laparoscope. Results All three dyes were effective in allowing the identification of the ureter with NIRF imaging. The ureter became fluorescent after 35, 45 and 10?min, respectively, for IRDye? 800BK, IRDye? 800NOS and IRDye? 800CW with a maximum target-to-background ratio (TBR) of 2.14, 0.66 and 1.44, respectively. In the ex?vivo imaging experiment, all three dyes produced a strong fluorescence signal at all concentrations and all distances evaluated. Conclusions Intravenous administration of the preclinical dyes IRDye? 800CW, IRDye? 800 BK and IRDye? 800NOS facilitated successful identification of the anatomical course of the ureter in living pig models. The highest measured TBR occurred with the use of IRDye? 800BK. Ex?vivo, a correlation was observed between the fluorescence intensities of the signal with the concentration of the dye and with the distance to the object.

Glutathione Triggered Near Infrared Fluorescence Imaging-guided Chemotherapy by Cyanine Conjugated Polypeptide
摘要: Precise detection of tumor environment for cancer diagnosis was strongly demanded for further therapies. Here, a redox-responsive fluorescence switch off/on system PCQ was designed and synthesized conjugated with near infrared (NIR) cyanine dyes (Cy5.5) and relevant quencher (FQ) in mixed polymeric micelles (PCy and PFQ). The mixed PCQ micelles was prepared with two kinds of polymer with poly (oligo (ethylene glycol) methacrylate) (POEGMA) as the hydrophilic shell, in which fluorescence emission was quenched by fluorescence resonance energy transfer (FRET) effect. The FQ was conjugated with POEGMA by disulfide linkage, which could be broke with redox environment such as high glutathione (GSH) concentration in tumor cells. After the PCQ micelles got into tumor cells, PFQ block in PCQ would be disassembled to recompose PCy micelles. During that process, drugs like doxorubicin (DOX) could be loaded inside and formed PCQ@DOX nanoparticles and then released for accurate NIR bioimaging and drug delivery instantly.

Staging laparoscopy with ultrasound and near-infrared fluorescence imaging to detect occult metastases of pancreatic and periampullary cancer
摘要: Introduction Up to 38% of pancreatic and periampullary cancer patients undergoing curative intended surgery turn out to have incurable disease. Therefore, staging laparoscopy (SL) prior to laparotomy is advised to spare patients the morbidity, inconvenience and expense of futile major surgery. The aim of this study was to assess the added value of SL with laparoscopic ultrasonography (LUS) and laparoscopic near-infrared fluorescence imaging (LFI). Methods All patients undergoing curative intended surgery of pancreatic or periampullary cancer were included prospectively in this single arm study. Patients received an intravenous infusion of 10 mg indocyanine green (ICG) one or two days prior to surgery to allow LFI. Suspect lesions were analyzed via biopsy or resection. Follow-up visits after surgery occurred every three months. Results A total of 25 patients were included. Suspect lesions were identified in 7 patients: liver metastases (n = 2; identified by inspection, LUS, and LFI), peritoneal metastases (n = 1; identified by inspection only), and benign lesions (n = 4; identified by inspection or LUS). Quality of LFI was good in 67% (10/15) of patients dosed one day and 89% (8/9) dosed two days prior to surgery. A futile laparotomy was averted in 3 patients (12%). Following SL the primary tumor was resected in 20 patients. Two patients (10%) developed metastases within 3 months after resection. Conclusions Despite current preoperative imaging modalities metastases are still identified during surgery. This study shows limited added value of LUS during SL in patients with pancreatic or periampullary cancer. LFI was of added value due to its high negative predictive value in case of suspect hepatic lesions identified by inspection.

NIR Infrared imaging after peritumoral injection of indocyanine green to guide lymph node dissection in head and neck squamous cell carcinoma: A pilot feasibility study
摘要: In head and neck squamous cell carcinoma (HNSCC), neck dissection is part of the surgical therapy. Beyond to the fact that radicality is a critical prognostic factor, this dissection could lead to significant morbidity, potentially avoidable when resected lymph nodes (LN) are proven to be non-invaded at pathology. Therefore, the definition of a method able to reliably identify the specific LN drainage area in HNSCC would represent a relevant progress, to better guide the neck dissection, potentially improving the radicality and reducing the morbidity. As near-infrared fluorescence imaging (NIR-FI) after indocyanine green (ICG) peritumoral injection has been validated as a sentinel procedure, we hypothesized that this approach could represent a new technique to identify the tumor-drainage area in HNSCC. We prospectively evaluated this technique in 14 patients with oral or oropharyngeal carcinoma scheduled for primary tumor resection and LN dissection. The trial was approved by the ethics committee of the Institut Jules Bordet (CE-2178) (EudraCT 2014-000298-37) and all patients signed informed consent before inclusion.

Applications of indocyanine green based near-infrared fluorescence imaging in thoracic surgery
摘要: Near-infrared (NIR) fluorescence guided surgery is an emerging technique. This technique uses the combination of dyes and NIR imaging devices to expand the visible spectrum. Thus it can provide more anatomic and functional information, and may facilitate a more complete resection of cancer, or better protection of important normal structures. Recently, significant progress has been made in the field of NIR fluorescence guided thoracic surgery. This may lead to better prognosis and health-economic outcomes. In this article, the current studies of indocyanine green (ICG) based NIR fluorescence guided thoracic surgeries are reviewed. The applications are classified into four categories, which are applications based on blood supply, lymphatic drainage, the enhanced permeability and retention (EPR) effect, and the other mechanisms.

Intravascular Molecular Imaging to Detect High-Risk Vulnerable Plaques: Current Knowledge and Future Perspectives
摘要: Purpose of Review To describe vulnerable plaque pathobiology and summarize potential targets for molecular imaging with a focus on intravascular near-infrared fluorescence (NIRF) and its translatable applications. Recent Findings Structural imaging alone is unable to precisely identify high-risk plaques in patients with coronary artery disease (CAD). Intravascular near-infrared fluorescence (NIRF) imaging is an emerging translational approach that can image specific in vivo molecular processes and cells that characterize vulnerable plaques. High-priority NIRF targets imaged by intravascular NIRF imaging thus far include macrophages, cathepsin protease activity, oxidized low-density lipoprotein (oxLDL), and abnormal endothelial permeability. The newest generation of NIRF catheters is multimodal in nature and combines NIRF with either IVUS or OCT, providing simultaneous co-registered morphological and pathobiological assessment of atherosclerotic plaques. While most intravascular NIRF studies have been performed in a preclinical environment, a first-in-human NIR autofluorescence-OCT trial has recently been performed. These developments suggest that clinical intravascular NIRF molecular imaging will be available within the next 3 years. Summary Molecular imaging is a powerful approach to enhance our understanding of atherosclerosis pathophysiology. Intravascular NIRF/OCT and NIRF/IVUS molecular imaging is nearing its use in atherosclerosis patients and will initially leverage indocyanine green (ICG) as an FDA-approved NIRF agent that reports on abnormal plaque permeability. Clinical trials are needed to assess the value of intravascular NIRF imaging using ICG as well as other novel NIRF imaging agents to better understand vulnerable plaque pathobiology, event prediction, and to enable personalized pharmacotherapy of high-risk plaques and patients.
