Excitation Transfer in Hybrid Nanostructures of Colloidal Ag2S/TGA Quantum Dots and Indocyanine Green J-Aggregates
摘要： The regularities of the electron excitations exchange in hybrid associates of colloidal Ag2S quantum dots, passivated with thioglycolic acid (Ag2S/TGA QDs) with an average size of 2.2 and 3.7 nm with Indocyanine Green J-aggregates (ICG) were studied in this work by methods of absorption and luminescence spectroscopy. It was shown that IR luminescence sensitization of Ag2S/TGA QDs with an average size of 3.7 nm in the region of 1040 nm is possible due to non-radiative resonance energy transfer from Ag2S/TGA QDs with an average size of 2.2 nm and luminescence peak at 900 nm using ICG J-aggregate as an exciton bridge. The sensitization efficiency is 0.33. This technique provides a transition from the first therapeutic window (NIR-I, 700-950 nm) to the second (NIR-II, 1000-1700 nm). It can allow high to increase the imaging in vivo resolution.

Plasmonic nano-dumbbells for enhanced photothermal and photodynamic synergistic damage of cancer cells
摘要： The longitudinal surface plasmon resonance of light-irradiated gold nanorods (Au NRs) is generated to enhance the local electric ?elds of Au NR-based nano-dumbbells (NDs), tailored speci?cally by coating mesoporous silica at two poles of Au NRs and embedding photosensitizer indocyanine green (ICG) into the mesopores. The assembled NDs possess a superior uniformity and water dispersity with a strong plasmonic absorption around 800 nm. Time-domain ?nite-difference calculations indicate that the enhanced local electric ?eld of NDs is predominantly distributed in the dumbbells at two poles of Au NRs, which improves the photonic performance of ICG signi?cantly. Illuminated by an 800 nm laser, the fabricated NDs demonstrate an enhanced combination of photothermal and photodynamic effects in comparison to either Au NRs or ICG alone. Synergistic damaging of photothermal and photodynamic combination to nasopharyngeal carcinoma cells has been corroborated experimentally, thus causing substantial cell death under a lower incident near-infrared laser power. This study concludes that the plasmonic NDs combined synergistically with ef?cient photothermal and photodynamic effects are highly promising in cancer therapy.

Near-infrared fluorescence-guided surgery using indocyanine green facilitates secure infrapyloric lymph node dissection during laparoscopic distal gastrectomy
摘要： Purpose We aimed to investigate the usefulness of near-infrared indocyanine green (ICG)-enhanced fluorescence guidance for infrapyloric LN dissection in laparoscopic distal gastrectomy. Methods This study enrolled patients with early gastric cancer scheduled for laparoscopic distal gastrectomy. After intra-operative submucosal injection of ICG (0.1 mg/mL), LN dissection was conducted under near-infrared ICG fluorescence guidance. The operation time, bleeding events during infrapyloric LN dissection were analyzed. Cases were retrospectively 1:3 propensity-score matched to patients who underwent laparoscopic distal gastrectomy without ICG injection. Results The mean time from midline omentectomy to exposure of the right gastroepiploic vein was significantly shorter in the ICG group (n = 20) than in the non-ICG group (n = 60) (13.05 ± 5.77 vs 18.68 ± 7.92 min; p = 0.001), and the incidence of bleeding during infrapyloric LN dissection was lower in the ICG group (20% vs 68.3%, p < 0.001). The two groups did not differ significantly regarding the number of LNs retrieved from the infrapyloric area (p = 0.434). Conclusions Near-infrared ICG fluorescence guidance facilitates safe and fast infrapyloric LN dissection in laparoscopic distal gastrectomy.

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.

Monitoring of Virulence Factors and Metabolic Activity in Aggregatibacter Actinomycetemcomitans Cells Surviving Antimicrobial Photodynamic Therapy via Nano-Chitosan Encapsulated Indocyanine Green
摘要： Aggregatibacter actinomycetemcomitans is an etiological agent frequently found in both chronic and aggressive periodontitis as well as peri-implantitis. This study assessed the effect of antimicrobial photodynamic therapy (aPDT), as an alternative treatment modality, by nano-chitosan encapsulated indocyanine green (CNPs/ICG), as a photosensitizer, on the virulence features of cell-surviving aPDT against A. actinomycetemcomitans. The cell cytotoxicity effect of CNPs/ICG was evaluated on primary human gingival fibroblast cells. A. actinomycetemcomitans ATCC 33384 photosensitized with CNPs/ICG was irradiated with diode laser at a wavelength of 810 nm for 1 min (31.2 J/cm2), and then bacterial viability measurements were done. The biofilm formation ability, metabolic activity, and antimicrobial susceptibility profiles were assessed for cell-surviving aPDT. The effect of aPDT on the expression of the fieF virulent gene, encoding the ferrous-iron efflux pump, was evaluated by the quantitative real-time PCR. CNPs/ICG-aPDT resulted in a significant reduction of cell viability (91%), biofilm formation capacity (53%), and metabolic activity (48%) of A. actinomycetemcomitans when compared to the control group (P < 0.05). Moreover, fieF gene expression was downregulated by 14.8 folds after the strains were treated with aPDT. The virulence of A. actinomycetemcomitans strain reduced in cells surviving aPDT with CNPs/ICG, indicating the potential implications of aPDT for the treatment of A. actinomycetemcomitans infections in periodontitis and peri-implantitis in vivo.

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.

Indocyanine Green-Conjugated Magnetic Prussian Blue Nanoparticles for Synchronous Photothermal/Photodynamic Tumor Therapy
摘要： Indocyanine green (ICG) is capable of inducing a photothermal effect and the production of cytotoxic reactive oxygen species for cancer therapy. However, the major challenge in applying ICG molecules for antitumor therapy is associated with their instability in aqueous conditions and rapid clearance from blood circulation, which causes insufficient bioavailability at the tumor site. Herein, we conjugated ICG molecules with Prussian blue nanoparticles enclosing a Fe3O4 nanocore, which was facilitated by cationic polyethyleneimine via electrostatic adsorption. The nanocarrier-loaded ICG formed stable aggregates that enhanced cellular uptake and prevented fluorescence quenching. Moreover, the strong superparamagnetism of the Fe3O4 core in the obtained nanocomposites further improved cellular internalization of the drugs guided by a localized magnetic field. The therapeutic efficacy of this nanoplatform was evaluated using tumor models established in nude mice, which demonstrated remarkable tumor ablation in vivo due to strong photothermal/photodynamic effects. This study provides promising evidence that this multifunctional nanoagent might function as an efficient mediator for combining photodynamic and photothermal cancer therapy.

Rationally assembled albumin/indocyanine green nanocomplex for enhanced tumor imaging to guide photothermal therapy
摘要： Herein, a novel phototheranostic nanocomplex that is self-assembled from bovine serum albumin (BSA) and indocyanine green (ICG) is developed for enhanced near-infrared (NIR) fluorescence imaging, which benefits the guidance on in vivo cancer photothermal therapy (PTT). The study confirms that the binding of ICG with the bind sits on the albumin will result in improved hydrolytic stability and high photoluminescence quantum yield (PLQY). The ICG loading ratio in the nanocomplex is optimized and confirms the loading ratio of 0.5% ICG to be the optimal content. The optimized ICG–BSA nanocomplex (ICG–BSA NC) possesses a higher PLQY of 16.8% than that of free ICG (2.7%). The high PLQY and efficient passive targeting ability of ICG–BSA NC help improve its in vivo tumor accumulation and NIR fluorescence imaging significantly. Under laser irradiation, efficient PTT with obvious tumor growth suppression on a triple negative breast tumor model can be observed in the ICG–BSA NC treated group.

Indocyanine green fluorescencea??guided robotic left colectomy with stapled colorectal anastomosis a?? a videoa??vignette
摘要： Technical advances, such as indocyanine green-fluorescence angiography (ICG-FA), can contribute to minimize the occurrence of anastomotic leakage. We describe the case of a 53-year-old female patient presenting with abdominal pain and sideropaenic anemia. The colonoscopy showed an adenocarcinoma located in the sigmoid colon. Preoperative CT scan showed no sign of metastases. Surgery was planned according to Enhanced Recovery After Surgery program, and was carried out with da Vinci robot system Xi?. An extended medial-to-lateral approach was followed; the splenic flexure was mobilized by separating the superior surface of pancreas from the retroperitoneum and the lesser sac. Following the transection of the rectum with a 45-mm EndoWrist? stapler, the colon was extracted through a 6-cm Pfannenstiel incision. After division of the mesentery and before sectioning, the proximal transection margin was identified by ICG-FA. Then, the anvil of the EEA stapler was inserted and secured with a purse string. The colorectal end-to-end anastomosis was performed and the blood supply of the intestinal tissue was rechecked with ICG-FA. The postoperative period was uneventful and the patient was discharged after 3 days. Pathology report confirmed pT3N0 adenocarcinoma (0/22 node+). The present video demonstrates the usefulness of advanced surgical techniques for oncological left colectomy performed successfully with an extended medial-to-lateral approach associated with the use of ICG-FA. Randomized controlled trials are awaited to assess the effectiveness of the routine use of ICG-FA.

IGCS Intraoperative Technology Taskforce. Update on near infrared imaging technology: beyond white light and the naked eye, indocyanine green and near infrared technology in the treatment of gynecologic cancers
摘要： Surgery, by its very nature, relies on the ability of the surgeon to visualize and distinguish healthy and non-healthy tissue or structures. Without advanced technology, surgeons can visualize only that which can be seen with the naked eye or using white light imaging. Critical information on tissues, anatomical structures and physiological processes remain hidden and difficult to discern. Fluorescence imaging augments the basic surgical information. This form of imaging entails injecting a contrast or fluorescence agent (fluorophore) that is then illuminated by the appropriate wavelength of light required to excite the fluorophore. The excited fluorophore emits light of a slightly longer wavelength that is selectively imaged to produce a fluorescence image. The first fluorescent agent used in surgery was an intravenous injection of fluorescein, where it was used to enhance intracranial neoplasms. One particular imaging agent, indocyanine green, has been a significant driver of adoption of fluorescence imaging. Indocyanine green was first developed in 1955 by Kodak Research Laboratories and was approved by the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) in 1959 for retinal angiography. Since that time, this fluorophore has been used for a variety of surgical applications due to its unique properties: relative non-toxicity, depth of visualization through tissue, and remaining confined to intravascular and lymphatic spaces due to binding predominately to lipoproteins. The large depth of visualization results from the fluorescence properties of bound indocyanine green which is optimally excited with 805 nm light and emits over an approximate wavelength range from 810 nm to 875 nm. These near infrared wavelengths, invisible to the naked eye, pass through tissue particularly well due to the low adsorption of light by the various structures of tissue, such as hemoglobin and water. As a result, the tissue is relatively transparent to this light and images of structures as much as 5 mm below the tissue surface can be formed. By comparison, fluorescence imaging with fluorescein images only 2–3 mm below the tissue surface; thus subsurface structures cannot be imaged using visible fluorophores.
