In treating tumors by pretargeting, the antitumor antibody and the cytotoxic effector (e.g., toxins and radioactivity) are separately administered. Therefore, pretargeting is more complicated with many variables. We are conducting studies to understand the influence of each variable using a novel recognition pair of mutually complementary phosphorodiamidate morpholino oligomers (MORF/cMORF). Earlier we developed a semi-empirical model capable of accurately predicting the behavior of a radiolabeled cMORF effector with variations in dosages and timing. We have now extended the model to predict the effector behavior, in particular, its maximum percent tumor accumulation (MPTA) in mice pretargeted with three different MORF-conjugated antibodies (MN14, B72.3, and CC49). The MN14 and the CC49 target different antigens in the same tumor, whereas the CC49 and the B72.3 target the same antigen but with very different tumor accumulation. By comparing the pretargeting results of these three antibodies with our prediction, we confirmed that the MPTA of the radiolabeled cMORF effector in the LS174T tumor is independent of the antibodies. In conclusion, the MPTA cannot be improved through the use of different pretargeting antibodies, although different antibodies may improve the maximum absolute tumor accumulation, the heterogeneity, and/or the tumor-to-normal tissue ratios of the effector. This conclusion will apply equally well to effectors carrying a fluorescent probe, an anticancer agent, or a radioactive imaging agent. 相似文献

Purpose To reduce accumulation in the abdomen by MORF/cMORF pretargeting, 111In was compared to 99mTc as the radiolabel.
Procedures After receiving either 99mTc (MAG3)-cMORF or 111In (DTPA)-cMORF, normal mice were imaged and killed for pharmacokinetics. Thereafter, tumored mice were pretargeted with MORF-antibody,
48 h later were given an injection of 99mTc- or 111In-cMORF, and finally were imaged repeatedly.
Results The cMORF biodistribution in both normal and pretargeted tumored mice was influenced by its radiolabel. While excretion of
both 99mTc-cMORF and 111In-cMORF was rapid and mainly through the kidneys, about 2% of 99mTc accumulated in the intestines compared to essentially no intestinal accumulation for 111In at any time. Tumor accumulation was unchanged.
Conclusion In applications of MORF/cMORF pretargeting intended to image organs deep within the abdomen such as the pancreas, radiolabeling
with 111In may be superior to 99mTc. 相似文献

Purpose Expression of cell adhesion molecule integrin αvβ3 is significantly up-regulated during tumor growth, and sprouting of tumor vessels and correlates well with tumor aggressiveness. The purpose of this study was to visualize tumor integrin αvβ3 expression in vivo by using near-infrared fluorescence (NIRF) imaging of Cy5.5-linked cyclic arginine–glycine–aspartic acid (RGD) peptide in an orthotopic brain tumor model.Procedures U87MG glioma cells transfected with the firefly luciferase gene were stereotactically injected into nude mice in the right frontal lobe. Bioluminescence imaging (BLI) using d-luciferin substrate and small animal magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) using gadolinium contrast enhancement were conducted weekly after tumor cell inoculation to monitor intracranial tumor growth. Integrin αvβ3 expression was assessed by using a three-dimensional optical imaging system (IVIS 200) 0–24 hours after administration of 1.5 nmol monomeric Cy5.5-RGD via the tail vein. Animals were injected intravenously with both Texas Red–tomato lectin and Cy5.5-RGD prior to sacrifice to visualize peptide localization to tumor vasculature using histology.Results Fluorescence microscopy demonstrated specific Cy5.5-RGD binding to both U87MG tumor vessels and tumor cells with no normal tissue binding. NIRF imaging showed highest tumor uptake and tumor to normal brain tissue ratio two hours postinjection (2.64 ± 0.20). Tumor uptake of Cy5.5-RGD was effectively blocked by using unlabeled c(RGDyK), and injection of Cy5.5 dye alone showed nonspecific binding.Conclusions Optical imaging via BLI and NIRF offer a simple, effective, and rapid technique for noninvasive in vivo monitoring and semiquantitative analysis of intracranial tumor growth and integrin αvβ3 expression. This study suggests that NIRF via fluorescently labeled RGD peptides may provide enhanced surveillance of tumor angiogenesis and anti-integrin treatment efficacy in orthotopic brain tumor models. 相似文献

Matrix metalloproteinases (MMPs) are proteolytic enzymes that degrade structural components of the extracellular matrix and participate in pathologies such as cancer and inflammatory disorders. The development of novel contrast agents for optical imaging of MMP activity in vivo is of great interest. The commonly used near‐infrared fluorescence‐compatible agents are dye‐quenched probes that do not emit fluorescence until they interact with MMPs. In contrast, fluorescent synthetic low‐molecular‐weight MMP inhibitors have not been systematically employed. The aim of this study was to evaluate the performance of our recently developed Cy5.5‐labeled MMP inhibitor to image MMP activity in tumors in vivo compared with activatable fluorescent MMP‐sensing probes. The dynamic uptake of Cy5.5‐AF489 into four different tumor entities was analyzed in xenografted mice by intravenous injection and subsequent fluorescence reflectance imaging. Tumors were characterized in regard to their MMP‐2 and ?9 mRNA expressions (qRT‐PCR analysis), proteins (immunohistochemistry) and gelatinase/collagenase activities (in situ zymography). Cy5.5‐AF489 was compared with MMPSenseTM 680 and MMPSenseTM 750 FAST, two commercially available MMP‐activatable probes. Cy5.5‐AF489 showed a specific tumor uptake, which was blocked by pre‐injection of the unlabeled MMPI, and discriminated between tumors with high or low MMP‐2/‐9 expressions. Our optical probe facilitated faster visualization of MMP‐active tumors accompanied by excellent tumor‐to‐background ratios when compared with activatable probes. The MMP inhibitor Cy5.5‐AF489 permits fast in vivo imaging of MMP expression/activity in tumors. Given its small molecular weight and non‐peptidic structure, translational imaging from a preclinical application to a diagnostic tool for MMP‐related diseases seems feasible.

细胞凋亡近红外线荧光显像在评价肿瘤放疗早期疗效中的作用 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1
目的:研究近红外线荧光(NIRF)标记的annexinV是否能显示小鼠体内细胞凋亡的情况。方法:合成了Cy5.5-annexinV,并对其体外与磷脂酰丝氨酸(PS)的结合特性进行研究。建立小鼠乳腺癌(MCA29)动物模型,将其分为放射治疗组与非放射治疗组,于放射治疗后6h静脉注射Cy5.5-annexJnV,24小时后进行显像,比较两组浓聚Cy5.5-annexinV的差异。结果:Cy5.5-annexinV与PS结合的结合力(Kd)为2.51×10^-9,未标记的annexinV与Ps的Kd为1.54×10^-9,两者间无显著差异,表明经Cy5.5标记后并未改变annexinV与PS的Kd。采用流式细胞检测仪及共聚焦激光扫描显微镜研究表明Cy5.5-annexinV与PS结合的特性与FITC—annexinV相似,说明Cy5.5-annexinV在体外具有鉴别凋亡细胞与正常细胞的能力。小鼠MCA29肿瘤细胞动物模型显像表明经放射治疗后的肿瘤细胞浓聚Cy5.5-annexinV高于未治疗的肿瘤细胞。结论:Cy5.5-annexinV可以用于肿瘤放射治疗的早期疗效评价。 相似文献

Endostatin is a potent inhibitor of angiogenesis currently in phase I clinical trials. Imaging technologies that use near-infrared fluorescent probes are well suited to the laboratory setting. The goal of this study was to determine whether endostatin labeled with a near-infrared probe (Cy5.5) could be detected in an animal and whether it would selectively localize to a tumor. Endostatin was conjugated to Cy5.5 monofunctional dye and injected into mice bearing Lewis lung carcinoma tumors (350 mm2). Mice were imaged at various time points while under sedation using a lightproof box affixed to a fluorescent microscope mounted with a filter in the near-infrared bandwidth consistent with Cy5.5 fluorescence. After i.p. injection, endostatin-Cy5.5 was absorbed producing a near-infrared fluorescent image within the tumors at 18 h reaching a maximum at 42 h after injection. No signal was emitted from mice injected with unlabeled endostatin or Cy5.5 dye alone or those that received no injection. Further results show that a dose response exists with injection of endostatin-Cy5.5. Mimicking the clinical route of administration, an i.v. injection had a peak signal emission at 3 h but also persisted to 72 h. Finally, to determine the intratumoral binding site for endostatin, we performed immunofluorescence on tumor specimens and demonstrated that endostatin binds to tumor vasculature and colocalizes with platelet/endothelial cell adhesion molecule 1 expression. This study demonstrates that endostatin covalently bound to Cy5.5 will migrate from a distant i.p. injection site to a tumor. These data indicate that endostatin-Cy5.5 is appropriate for selectively imaging tumors in uninjured experimental animals. 相似文献

Purpose
In glioblastoma, EphB4 receptors, a member of the largest family of receptor tyrosine kinases, are overexpressed in both tumor cells and angiogenic blood vessels. The purpose of this study was to examine whether the EphB4-binding peptide TNYL-RAW labeled with both 64Cu and near-infrared fluorescence dye Cy5.5 could be used as a molecular imaging agent for dual-modality positron emission tomography/computed tomography [PET/CT] and optical imaging of human glioblastoma in orthotopic brain tumor models.Materials and Methods
TNYL-RAW was conjugated to Cy5.5 and the radiometal chelator 1,4,7,10-tetraazadodecane-N,N′,N″,N?-tetraacetic acid. The conjugate was then labeled with 64Cu for in vitro binding and in vivo dual μPET/CT and optical imaging studies in nude mice implanted with EphB4-expressing U251 and EphB4-negative U87 human glioblastoma cells. Tumors and brains were removed at the end of the imaging sessions for immunohistochemical staining and fluorescence microscopic examinations.Results
μPET/CT and near-infrared optical imaging clearly showed specific uptake of the dual-labeled TNYL-RAW peptide in both U251 and U87 tumors in the brains of the nude mice after intravenous injection of the peptide. In U251 tumors, the Cy5.5-labeled peptide colocalized with both tumor blood vessels and tumor cells; in U87 tumors, the tracer colocalized only with tumor blood vessels, not with tumor cells.Conclusions
Dual-labeled EphB4-specific peptide could be used as a noninvasive molecular imaging agent for PET/CT and optical imaging of glioblastoma owing to its ability to bind to both EphB4-expressing angiogenic blood vessels and EphB4-expressing tumor cells. 相似文献8.
Previously, the optical imaging of chitosan-functionalized, Pluronic-based nano-carriers by Cy5.5 conjugation revealed a good tumor targeting characteristic of the nano-carriers in vivo [J. Control. Release, 147 (2010) 109–117]. However, in spite of the relatively strong signal from tumor site, they also showed strong fluorescence signals from other organs, especially liver. Thus, for the detection of pathological sites, the direct use of the Cy5.5-conjugated nano-carriers is limited due to significant background signals associated with non-specific delivery of the probes. To overcome this limitation, in this study, we prepared hydrocyanine-conjugated and chitosan-functionalized Pluronic-based nano-carriers (Hydrocyanine-NC) that can detect ROS in pathological sites. The reduction of cyanine to hydrocyanine of the nano-carriers resulted in complete disappearance of fluorescence emission, and the fluorescence could be recovered by ROS-induced re-oxidization. Hydrocyanine-NC could detect various ROS including superoxide anion (O2−) and hydroxyl radical (OH−) in a dose-dependent manner. Hydrocyanine-NC was also stable in serum-containing media and did not show acute cytotoxicity. Hydrocyanine-NC developed strong fluorescence by the intracellular ROS formation in LPS-stimulated macrophage cells in vitro. As an in-vivo inflammation site imaging, SCC7 tumor-bearing mice were optically monitored after the i.v. injection of the dye-conjugated nano-carriers. When non-reduced, cyanine-conjugated and chitosan-functionalized Pluronic-based nano-carriers (Cyanine-NC) were injected, strong fluorescence emission was observed from the abdominal area as well as from the tumor site, and it remained over 2 days. In contrast, in the case of Hydrocyanine-NC, the initially very weak fluorescence emission from the abdominal area disappeared over time whereas the fluorescence emission from the tumor site was similar to that of Cyanine-NC. Therefore, the re-oxidation of Hydrocyanine-NC by ROS in vivo specifically eliminated the background signals from non-specific delivery of the probes, but it produced fluorescence emission strong enough to monitor the target inflammation site selectively. 相似文献

Purpose
90Yttrium-ibritumomab-tiuxetan (Zevalin) is an effective treatment for relapsed or refractory low-grade, follicular, or transformed
B-cell NHL. The purpose of this study is to assess whether tissue and cellular localization of 90Y-ibritumomab–tiuxetan determined by autoradiography and radioactivity localized to tumor tissue might enhance our understanding
of the mechanism of action of radioimmunotherapy.
Methods Eight eligible patients had CD20+ NHL, a bulky peripheral lymph node, and were scheduled for 90Y-ibritumomab–tiuxetan treatment. 2-Deoxy-2-[F-18]fluoro-d-glucose-positron emission tomography/computed tomography (FDG-PET/CT) was performed prior to treatment and at 12 weeks after
therapy for assessment of response. Bone marrow, lymph node, and blood samples were collected 114 ± 3 h after 14.8 MBq/kg
90Y-ibritumomab-tiuxetan and processed for histology, scintillation counting, and microscopic autoradiography.
Results Pericellular membrane localization of 90Y-ibritumomab–tiuxetan to lymphoma cells was observed by autoradiography in the involved areas of lymph node with absence
of significant localization in histologically normal sections of bone marrow. Pericellular radioactivity and the highest quantitative
radioactivity were observed in lymph node samples of responding patients.
Conclusions
90Y-ibritumomab-tiuxetan localizes to the surface membrane of CD20+ lymphoma cells in affected lymph nodes. The patients with
the highest quantitative concentration of radioactivity to the lymph node as determined by scintillation counting were observed
to have a clinical and FDG-PET/CT response. 相似文献

Objectives To improve the cross-correlation method for noninvasive, continuous monitoring of cerebral autoregulation, to evaluate this
method in humans with intact and impaired autoregulatory capacity, and to compare it to the cuff deflation test.
Design and setting Prospective study in the intensive care unit of a university hospital.
Patients and participants Fourteen patients with severe head injury, six patients with subarachnoid hemorrhage, and nine healthy volunteers.
Interventions and measurements Middle cerebral artery flow velocities and arterial blood pressure were monitored continuously. Aaslid's thigh cuff tests
were performed and results were scored using Tiecks' model for autoregulation index. Data were then collected without any
patient manipulation. The mean time delay between slow spontaneous oscillations of blood pressure and middle cerebral artery
flow velocity was calculated by cross-correlation analysis. Data are expressed as median (lower/upper quartile).
Results Healthy subjects had a higher autoregulation index than patients, 5.0 (5.0/5.5) vs. 3.3 (2.0/4.5). Slow oscillations of blood
pressure and middle cerebral artery flow velocity showed a time delay of –2.0 s (–2.7/–1.7) in healthy subjects but were almost
synchronal in patients, –0.07 s (–0.5/0.45). Inter-method agreement in diagnosing an intact or impaired cerebral autoregulation
was obtained in 108 of 147 examinations of autoregulation (73.5%) and was considered moderate.
Conclusions Cross-correlation analysis may serve as a simple, noninvasive, and continuous measure of cerebral autoregulation. The time
delay of –2.0 s in healthy subjects is in good agreement with other studies. Short-term autoregulation tests and monitoring
techniques based on slow spontaneous oscillations should not be used interchangeably.

Using a new flow-test phantom, which respects the acoustic properties of real blood as well as the proximal and distal impedances
of body circulation, we assessed the performance of two duplex sonography signal processors on blood-flow measurements. With
both the analog and the dynamic signal processor (Fast Fourier Transform), the correlation between duplex sonography and quantitative
flow measurements was high (0.96–0.99) for different dynamic conditions (steady or pulsatile blood flow, varying heart rate,
blood pressure, and hematocrit) and for different mechanical conditions (silicon tube or animal vessel). The real blood flow
was overestimated by duplex sonography the over-estimation was more pronounced with the analog processor (factor 1.87–4.20)
than with the digital processor (factor 1.22–1.64,P<0.05). Applied to the study of asymmetric stenoses, the digital processor was not superior to the analog processors described
in the literature. 相似文献

Objective To compare plasma levels of thioredoxin (Trx), TNF-α and IL-1β in children during the acute phase of meningococcal septic
shock (MSS) and in convalescence.
Design and setting Retrospective, observational study in the paediatric intensive care unit of a postgraduate teaching hospital.
Patients Thirty-five children requiring intensive care for meningococcal sepsis; paired convalescent samples from 30 survivors (median
interval between samples 62 days); 25 healthy control children.
Measurements and results Plasma Trx levels were significantly lower in the children with MSS, both during the acute illness (5.5 ng/ml, IQR 1.4–11.4)
and in convalescence (2.5 ng/ml, IQR 0.4–6.9) than controls (18.8 ng/ml, IQR 7.9–25.0). Levels of IL-1β and TNF-α were higher
in patients with acute MSS (30.3 pg/ml, IQR 3.6–63.6, and 145.9 pg/ml, IQR 31.8–278.1 respectively) than controls (3.7 pg/ml,
IQR 0–36.9, and 23.8 pg/ml, IQR 0–124.3, respectively). Levels fell in convalescence (3.7 pg/ml, IQR 0–25.5, 3.7 pg/ml, IQR
0–304.8, respectively). Plasma Trx was higher in non-survivors, albeit a small group (n = 5), than in survivors (n = 30). Trx, IL-1β, and TNF-α levels were not correlated with predicted mortality as assessed by the paediatric risk of mortality
(PRISM) score.
Conclusions Children with MSS exhibit persistently low plasma levels of Trx during acute illness and in convalescence. 相似文献

Purpose Cell adhesion molecule integrin αvβ3 is an excellent target for tumor interventions because of its unique expression on the surface of several types of solid tumor cells and on almost all sprouting tumor vasculatures. Here, we describe the development of near-infrared (NIR) fluorochrome Cy7-labeled RGD peptides for tumor integrin targeting.Procedures Mono-, di-, and tetrameric RGD peptides were synthesized and conjugated with Cy7. The integrin specificity of these fluorescent probes was tested in vitro for receptor binding assay and fluorescence microscopy and in vivo for subcutaneous U87MG tumor targeting.Results The tetrameric RGD peptide probe with the highest integrin affinity showed the highest tumor activity accumulation and strongest tumor-to-normal tissue contrast. This uptake is integrin-specific as the signal accumulated in the tumor can be effectively blocked by unconjugated RGD peptide antagonist of integrin αvβ3.Conclusions Noninvasive NIR fluorescence imaging is able to detect and semiquantify tumor integrin expression based upon the highly potent tetrameric RGD peptide probe. 相似文献

Generally angiogenic factors induce the expression of E‐selectin in vascular endothelial cells in the tumors. In this study, we employed an anti‐E‐selectin monoclonal antibody to target tumors in vivo and evaluated an optical imaging reagent to visualize tumor regions. The anti‐E‐selectin antibody was conjugated on the surface of liposomes, which encapsulated the near‐infrared fluorescent substances Cy3 or Cy5.5. The liposomes efficiently recognized human umbilical vein endothelial cells only when E‐selectin was induced by angiogenic factors such as TNF‐α in vitro. Cy5.5 encapsulated into liposomes that were conjugated with an anti‐E‐selectin antibody successfully visualized Ehrlich ascites tumor cells when transplanted into mice. Thus, E‐selectin targeting with liposomes containing a near‐infrared fluorescent dye was found effective in visualizing tumors in vivo. This strategy should be extremely useful as a method to identify sentinel lymphatic nodes and angiogenic tumors as well as use for drug delivery to tumor cells.

Purpose
Non-invasive assessment of inflammatory activity in the course of various diseases is a largely unmet clinical challenge. An early feature of inflammation is local secretion of the alarmin S100A8/A9 by activated phagocytes. We here evaluate a novel S100A9-targeted small molecule tracer Cy5.5-CES271 for in vivo optical imaging of inflammatory activity in exemplary disease models.Procedures
Dynamics of Cy5.5-CES271 was characterized in a model of irritant contact dermatitis by sequential fluorescence reflectance imaging (FRI) up to 24 h postinjection (p.i.). Specificity of Cy5.5-CES271 binding to S100A9 in vivo was examined by blocking studies and by employing S100A9?/? mice. Finally, S100A9 secretion in acute lung inflammation was assessed by Cy5.5-CES271 and FRI of explanted lungs.Results
In ear inflammation, we were able to non-invasively follow the time course of S100A9 expression using Cy5.5-CES271 and FRI over 24 h p.i. (peak activity at 3 h p.i.). Specificity of imaging could be shown by a significant signal reduction after predosing and using S100A9?/? mice. In acute lung injury, local and systemic S100A8/A9 levels increased over time and correlated significantly with FRI signal levels in explanted lungs.Conclusions
Cy5.5-CES271 shows significant accumulation in models of inflammatory diseases and specific binding to S100A9 in vivo. This study, for the first time, demonstrates the potential of a small molecule non-peptidic tracer enabling imaging of S100A9 as a marker of local phagocyte activity in inflammatory scenarios suggesting this compound class for translational attempts.18.

Summary A recent meta–analysis of the Cholesterol Treatment Trialists’ (CTT) Collaboration comes to the clear conclusion that a reduction
in LDL–C using statins of 1 mmol/l (39 mg/dl) leads to a decrease in overall mortality by 12%, in coronary mortality by 19%
and in the incidence of strokes by 17%, independent of the LDL–C level prior to the start of treatment. We conducted a systematic
review retrieving 18 studies with a total of 97 861 participants. Differences in average LDL–C reductions between the intervention
and control groups during the follow–up and relative risks according to different clinical endpoints were extracted from the
original publications. Metaregression analyses showed that reduction in LDL–C accounted for more than 75% of the variance
in risk reductions for overall mortality and cardiovascular endpoints. On the basis of our estimates, a reduction in LDL–C
of 1 mmol/l (39 mg/dl) leads to reductions in overall mortality, coronary mortality, incidence of non–fatal myocardial infarction,
the combination of coronary mortality and non–fatal myocardial infarction, stroke and any vascular event by 15% (95% CI: 11–20%),
24% (95% CI: 20–28%), 27% (95% CI: 20–32%), 25% (95% CI: 22–29%), 24% (18–29%) and 22% (95% CI: 19–26%), respectively. We
conclude that the extent to which statins lower LDL–C is strongly related to the improvement of clinical outcomes achieved
by this class of drugs.

Early detection of cancer biomarkers can reduce cancer mortality rate. miRNAs are small non-coding RNAs whose expression changes upon the onset of various types of cancer. Biosensors that specifically detect such biomarkers can be engineered and integrated into point-of-care devices (POC) using label-free detection, high sensibility and compactness. In this paper, a new engineered Molecular Beacon (MB) construct used to detect miRNAs is presented. Such a construct is immobilized onto biosensor surfaces in a covalent and spatially oriented way using the photonic technology Light Assisted Molecular Immobilization (LAMI). The construct consists of a Cy3 labelled MB covalently attached to a light-switchable peptide. One MB construct contains a poly-A sequence in its loop region while the other contains a sequence complementary to the cancer biomarker miRNA-21. The constructs have been characterized by UV-Vis spectroscopy, mass spectrometry and HPLC. LAMI led to the successful immobilization of the engineered constructs onto thiol functionalized optically flat quartz slides and Silicon on Insulator (SOI) sensor surfaces. The immobilized Cy3 labelled MB construct has been imaged using confocal fluorescence microscopy (CFM). The bioavailability of the immobilized engineered MB biosensors was confirmed through specific hybridization with the Cy5 labelled complementary sequence and imaged by CFM and FRET. Hybridization kinetics have been monitored using steady state fluorescence spectroscopy. The label-free detection of miRNA-21 was also achieved by using integrated photonic sensing structures. The engineered light sensitive constructs can be immobilized onto thiol reactive surfaces and are currently being integrated in a POC device for the detection of cancer biomarkers.Photonic based detection strategies of cancer miRNA biomarkers after Light Assisted Molecular Immobilization (LAMI) of peptide-MB biosensor constructs. 相似文献
