A Fluorescent Furan-based Probe with Protected Functional Groups for Highly Selective and Non-Toxic Imaging of HT-29 Cancer Cells and 4T1 Tumors. Chempluschem 2024:e202400095. [PMID: 38787798 DOI: 10.1002/cplu.202400095] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 02/01/2024] [Revised: 05/21/2024] [Accepted: 05/24/2024] [Indexed: 05/26/2024]
Abstract
Most of the previously reported fluorescent organic probes for cancer cell and tumor imaging have significant limitations including chemical toxicity, structural instability, low Stokes shift value, and the inability for selective accumulations in tumors during in vivo imaging. To overcome the mentioned challenges, we synthesized the fluorescent probes with protected polar functional groups to enhance the non-toxicity nature and increase the selectivity toward tumors. In addition, the structural rigidity of the fluorescent probes was increased by embedding aromatic rings in the probe structure. This issue enables us to obtain ultrabright cell images due to enhanced fluorescence quantum yield (ΦFL) values. After synthesis and spectral characterizations, the applicability of two furan-based and imidazole-based fluorescent probes ( abbreviated as DCPEF and DBPPI, respectively) was investigated for ultrabright in vitro and in vivo imaging of cancer cells. The probe DCPEF shows the ΦFL value of 0.946 and the Stocks shift of 86 nm. In addition, probe DBPPI offers the ΦFL value of 0.400 and a Stocks shift of 150 nm. The MTT colorimetric cytotoxicity assay showed that probe DCPEF has minimal effects against HT-29 (cancer) and Vero (normal) cells. The probe DCPEF produced ultrabright fluorescence images from HT-29 cells. In addition, in vivo imaging of cancer cells showed that probe DCPEF selectively accumulates in the 4T1 tumor in mice. The spectral and chemical stability, minimal cytotoxicity, significant Stokes shift, and high degree of selectivity for tumor cells during in vivo imaging make DCPEF an appropriate candidate to be used as a standard probe for cancer cell imaging.

Abstract
Near-infrared-II fluorescence imaging (NIR-II FI) has become a powerful imaging technique for disease diagnosis owing to its superiorities, including high sensitivity, high spatial resolution, deep imaging depth, and low background interference. Despite the widespread application of conjugated polymer nanoparticles (CPNs) for NIR-II FI, most of the developed CPNs have quite low NIR-II fluorescence quantum yields based on the energy gap law, which makes high-sensitivity and high-resolution imaging toward deep lesions still a huge challenge. This work proposes a nanoengineering strategy to modulate the size of CPNs aimed at optimizing their NIR-II fluorescence performance for improved NIR-II phototheranostics. By adjusting the initial concentration of the synthesized conjugated polymer, a series of CPNs with different particle sizes are successfully prepared via a nanoprecipitation approach. Results show that the NIR-II fluorescence brightness of CPNs gradually amplifies with decreasing particle size, and the optimal CPNs, NP0.2, demonstrate up to a 2.05-fold fluorescence enhancement compared with the counterpart nanoparticles. With the merits of reliable biocompatibility, high photostability, and efficient light-heat conversion, the optimal NP0.2 has been successfully employed for NIR-II FI-guided photothermal therapy both in vitro and in vivo. Our work highlights an effective strategy of nanoengineering to improve the NIR-II performance of CPNs, advancing the development of NIR-II FI in life sciences.

Abstract
Near-infrared (NIR) photothermal manipulation has emerged as a promising and noninvasive technology for neuroscience research and disease therapy for its deep tissue penetration. NIR stimulated techniques have been used to modulate neural activity. However, due to the lack of suitable in vivo control systems, most studies are limited to the cellular level. Here, a NIR photothermal technique is developed to modulate cellular excitability and animal behaviors in Caenorhabditis elegans in vivo via the thermosensitive transient receptor potential vanilloid 1 (TRPV1) channel with an FDA-approved photothermal agent indocyanine green (ICG). Upon NIR stimuli, exogenous expression of TRPV1 in AFD sensory neurons causes Ca2+ influx, leading to increased neural excitability and reversal behaviors, in the presence of ICG. The GABAergic D-class motor neurons can also be activated by NIR irradiation, resulting in slower thrashing behaviors. Moreover, the photothermal manipulation is successfully applied in different types of muscle cells (striated muscles and nonstriated muscles), enhancing muscular excitability, causing muscle contractions and behavior changes in vivo. Altogether, this study demonstrates a noninvasive method to precisely regulate the excitability of different types of cells and related behaviors in vivo by NIR photothermal manipulation, which may be applied in mammals and clinical therapy.

Abstract
In this paper, the vinyl-pyridine group was used to modify the BODIPY dimer photosensitizer (T-BDP2) to obtain a VP-BDP2 photosensitizer. Compared with the T-BDP2 photosensitizer, the VP-BDP2 photosensitizer could work under pure water conditions, the singlet oxygen yield was increased from 9.38% to 22.2%, the charge transfer rate was increased from about 30 ps to about 10 ps, and the red emission was enhanced in fluorescence imaging. In addition, the VP-BDP2 photosensitizer could also generate the superoxide radical (O2˙-) under pure water conditions. The ROS generation mechanism of the VP-BDP2 photosensitizer was considered to be the spin-orbit charge-transfer intersystem crossing (SOCT-ISC) mechanism, which was verified by fs-transient absorption spectra and theoretical calculation. In the photodynamic therapy of A-549 cells, the VP-BDP2 photosensitizers could generate singlet oxygen and superoxide radicals (O2˙-) under biological conditions, and showed high phototoxicity with the IC50 value at 12.1 μM under light at 525 nm. Additionally, the multiple dipolar configuration meant that the VP-BDP2 photosensitizer could be used in two-photon fluorescence zebrafish imaging under 800 nm excitation, which sets the stage for future two-photon photodynamic therapy.

Abstract
The current standard of care for colon cancer surveillance relies heavily on white light endoscopy (WLE). However, dysplastic lesions that are not visible to the naked eye are often missed when conventional WLE equipment is used. Although dye-based chromoendoscopy shows promise, current dyes cannot delineate tumor tissues from surrounding healthy tissues accurately. The goal of the present study was to screen various phthalocyanine (PC) dye-loaded micelles for their ability to improve the direct visualization of tumor tissues under white light following intravenous administration. Zinc PC (tetra-tert-butyl)-loaded micelles were identified as the optimal formulation. Their accumulation within syngeneic breast tumors led the tumors to turn dark blue in color, making them clearly visible to the naked eye. These micelles were similarly able to turn spontaneous colorectal adenomas in Apc+/Min mice a dark blue color for easy identification and could enable clinicians to more effectively detect and remove colonic polyps.

Abstract
Indocyanine green (ICG) is one of the FDA-approved near infra-red fluorescent (NIRF) probes for cancer imaging and image-guided surgery in the clinical setting. However, the limitations of ICG include poor photostability, high concentration toxicity, short circulation time, and poor cancer cell specificity. To overcome these hurdles, we engineered a nanoconstruct composed of poly (vinyl pyrrolidone) (PVP)-indocyanine green that is cloaked self-assembled with tannic acid (termed as indocyanine green-based glow nanoparticles probe, ICG-Glow NPs) for the cancer cell/tissue-specific targeting. The self-assembled ICG-Glow NPs were confirmed by spherical nanoparticles formation (DLS and TEM) and spectral analyses. The NIRF imaging characteristic of ICG-Glow NPs was established by superior fluorescence counts on filter paper and chicken tissue. The ICG-Glow NPs exhibited excellent hemo and cellular compatibility with human red blood cells, kidney normal, pancreatic normal, and other cancer cell lines. An enhanced cancer-specific NIRF binding and imaging capability of ICG-Glow NPs was confirmed using different human cancer cell lines and human tumor tissues. Additionally, tumor-specific binding/accumulation of ICG-Glow NPs was confirmed in MDA-MB-231 xenograft mouse model. Collectively, these findings suggest that ICG-Glow NPs have great potential as a novel and safe NIRF imaging probe for cancer cell/tumor imaging. This can lead to a quicker cancer diagnosis facilitating precise disease detection and management.

Abstract
In this study, a novel donor-acceptor conjugated polymer PDPPDTP was designed and synthesized by D-A polymerization using 2,6-di(trimethyltin)-N-dithieno[3,2-b:20,30-d]pyrrole as the electron-donating (D) unit and 3,6-bis(5-bromothiophen-2-yl)-2,5-dihexadecylpyrrolo[3,4-c]pyrrole-1,4-dione as the electron-accepting (A) unit. The prepared polymer has strong absorption in the near-infrared (NIR) range of 700-900 nm. Moreover, it shows excellent photothermal performance under irradiation at 808 nm. Next, the biodegradable amphiphilic polymer polyethylene glycol-polycaprolactone was used to encapsulate the new conjugated polymer into nanomicelles by the microemulsion method. The obtained PDPPDTP-loaded micelles exhibited a regular spherical structure, and their hydrodynamic diameter was about 78 nm, characterized by transmission electron microscopy and dynamic light scattering. Notably, the micelles exhibited good stability, and the encapsulation efficiency of the conjugated polymer in the micelles was ∼80%. In vitro cell experiments demonstrated that the nanomicelles not only showed good biocompatibility and low toxicity but also could effectively inhibit the proliferation of breast cancer cells 4T1 under the NIR light irradiation of 808 nm. Furthermore, in vivo studies of photothermal therapy (PTT) efficacy showed that the PDPPDTP-loaded micelles exhibited a remarkable tumor growth inhibition in a syngeneic murine tumor model, indicating that the nanomicelles loaded with this novel conjugated polymer could be further explored as a new type of theranostic agent and applied in the PTT of tumors.

Abstract
Root canal (RC) therapy is the primary treatment of dental-pulp and periapical diseases. The mechanical method and chemical irrigation have limitations in RC therapy. Much attention has focused on exploring more controllable and efficacious antimicrobial methods. Although the introduction of photodynamic therapy (PDT) has provided the ideas for RC debridement, the problems of low photosensitive efficiency and nonsignificant germicidal potency of traditional photosensitizers (e.g., methylene blue) have not been solved. Since the concept of "aggregation-induced emission" (AIE) was proposed, optimization of photosensitizers has been boosted considerably. Herein, an AIE photosensitizer, DPA-SCP, with a strong ability to generate singlet oxygen, is proposed for use as an antibacterial application in infected RCs. The antimicrobial activity of DPA-SCP against Enterococcus faecalis suspensions was tested. To explore the antibacterial ability of this photosensitizer against bacterial-biofilm colonization on the inner walls of RCs, we established a model of bacterial biofilm infection. PDT mediated by DPA-SCP had a significant germicidal effect on E. faecalis suspensions and 21-day biofilms in human RCs. PDT mediated by DPA-SCP could achieve efficiency equivalent to that observed using 1% NaOCl, and lead to no significant change in the dentin surface, chemical corrosion, or cytotoxicity.
