[PMID: 37251213 PMCID: PMC10209493 DOI: 10.1016/j.bpr.2023.100110] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 01/26/2023] [Accepted: 04/27/2023] [Indexed: 05/31/2023]
Abstract
Förster resonance energy transfer (FRET) microscopy is used in numerous biophysical and biomedical applications to monitor inter- and intramolecular interactions and conformational changes in the 2-10 nm range. FRET is currently being extended to in vivo optical imaging, its main application being in quantifying drug-target engagement or drug release in animal models of cancer using organic dye or nanoparticle-labeled probes. Herein, we compared FRET quantification using intensity-based FRET (sensitized emission FRET analysis with the three-cube approach using an IVIS imager) and macroscopic fluorescence lifetime (MFLI) FRET using a custom system using a time-gated-intensified charge-coupled device, for small animal optical in vivo imaging. The analytical expressions and experimental protocols required to quantify the product f D E of the FRET efficiency E and the fraction of donor molecules involved in FRET, f D , are described in detail for both methodologies. Dynamic in vivo FRET quantification of transferrin receptor-transferrin binding was acquired in live intact nude mice upon intravenous injection of a near-infrared-labeled transferrin FRET pair and benchmarked against in vitro FRET using hybridized oligonucleotides. Even though both in vivo imaging techniques provided similar dynamic trends for receptor-ligand engagement, we demonstrate that MFLI-FRET has significant advantages. Whereas the sensitized emission FRET approach using the IVIS imager required nine measurements (six of which are used for calibration) acquired from three mice, MFLI-FRET needed only one measurement collected from a single mouse, although a control mouse might be needed in a more general situation. Based on our study, MFLI therefore represents the method of choice for longitudinal preclinical FRET studies such as that of targeted drug delivery in intact, live mice.

Abstract
Receptor biology provides a great opportunity to understand the ligand-receptor signaling involved in health and disease processes. Receptor endocytosis and signaling play a vital role in health conditions. Receptor-based signaling is the main form of communication between cells and cells with the environment. However, if any irregularities happen during these events, the consequences of pathophysiological conditions occur. Various methods are utilized to know structure, function, and regulation of receptor proteins. Further, live-cell imaging and genetic manipulations have aided in the understanding of receptor internalization, subcellular trafficking, signaling, metabolic degradation, etc. Understanding the genetics, biochemistry, and physiology of receptors and ligands is very helpful to explore various aspects such as prognosis, diagnosis, and treatment of disease. However, there are enormous challenges that exist to explore receptor biology further. This chapter briefly discusses the current challenges and emerging opportunities of receptor biology.

Abstract
We report on the system design and instrumental characteristics of a novel time-domain mesoscopic fluorescence molecular tomography (TD-MFMT) system for multiplexed molecular imaging in turbid media. The system is equipped with a supercontinuum pulsed laser for broad spectral excitation, based on a high-density descanned raster scanning intensity-based acquisition for 2D and 3D imaging and augmented with a high-dynamical range linear time-resolved single-photon avalanche diode (SPAD) array for lifetime quantification. We report on the system's spatio-temporal and spectral characteristics and its sensitivity and specificity in controlled experimental settings. Also, a phantom study is undertaken to test the performance of the system to image deeply-seated fluorescence inclusions in tissue-like media. In addition, ex vivo tumor xenograft imaging is performed to validate the system's applicability to the biological sample. The characterization results manifest the capability to sense small fluorescence concentrations (on the order of nanomolar) while quantifying fluorescence lifetimes and lifetime-based parameters at high resolution. The phantom results demonstrate the system's potential to perform 3D multiplexed imaging thanks to spectral and lifetime contrast in the mesoscopic range (at millimeters depth). The ex vivo imaging exhibits the prospect of TD-MFMT to resolve intra-tumoral heterogeneity in a depth-dependent manner.

Abstract
Near-infrared (NIR) fluorescence lifetime imaging (FLI) provides a unique contrast mechanism to monitor biological parameters and molecular events in vivo. Single-photon avalanche diode (SPAD) cameras have been recently demonstrated in FLI microscopy (FLIM) applications, but their suitability for in vivo macroscopic FLI (MFLI) in deep tissues remains to be demonstrated. Herein, we report in vivo NIR MFLI measurement with SwissSPAD2, a large time-gated SPAD camera. We first benchmark its performance in well-controlled in vitro experiments, ranging from monitoring environmental effects on fluorescence lifetime, to quantifying Förster resonant energy transfer (FRET) between dyes. Next, we use it for in vivo studies of target-drug engagement in live and intact tumor xenografts using FRET. Information obtained with SwissSPAD2 was successfully compared to that obtained with a gated intensified charge-coupled device (ICCD) camera, using two different approaches. Our results demonstrate that SPAD cameras offer a powerful technology for in vivo preclinical applications in the NIR window.

Abstract
Small molecule chemical probes are valuable tools for interrogating protein biological functions and relevance as a therapeutic target. Rigorous validation of chemical probe parameters such as cellular potency and selectivity is critical to unequivocally linking biological and phenotypic data resulting from treatment with a chemical probe to the function of a specific target protein. A variety of modern technologies are available to evaluate cellular potency and selectivity, target engagement, and functional response biomarkers of chemical probe compounds. Here, we review these technologies and the rationales behind using them for the characterization and validation of chemical probes. In addition, large-scale phenotypic characterization of chemical probes through chemical genetic screening is increasingly leading to a wealth of information on the cellular pharmacology and disease involvement of potential therapeutic targets. Extensive compound validation approaches and integration of phenotypic information will lay foundations for further use of chemical probes in biological discovery. Expected final online publication date for the Annual Review of Biochemistry, Volume 91 is June 2022. Please see http://www.annualreviews.org/page/journal/pubdates for revised estimates.

Abstract
SIGNIFICANCE Biomedical optics system design, image formation, and image analysis have primarily been guided by classical physical modeling and signal processing methodologies. Recently, however, deep learning (DL) has become a major paradigm in computational modeling and has demonstrated utility in numerous scientific domains and various forms of data analysis. AIM We aim to comprehensively review the use of DL applied to macroscopic diffuse optical imaging (DOI). APPROACH First, we provide a layman introduction to DL. Then, the review summarizes current DL work in some of the most active areas of this field, including optical properties retrieval, fluorescence lifetime imaging, and diffuse optical tomography. RESULTS The advantages of using DL for DOI versus conventional inverse solvers cited in the literature reviewed herein are numerous. These include, among others, a decrease in analysis time (often by many orders of magnitude), increased quantitative reconstruction quality, robustness to noise, and the unique capability to learn complex end-to-end relationships. CONCLUSIONS The heavily validated capability of DL's use across a wide range of complex inverse solving methodologies has enormous potential to bring novel DOI modalities, otherwise deemed impractical for clinical translation, to the patient's bedside.

Abstract
Precision medicine promises to improve therapeutic efficacy while reducing adverse effects, especially in oncology. However, despite great progresses in recent years, precision medicine for cancer treatment is not always part of routine care. Indeed, the ability to specifically tailor therapies to distinct patient profiles requires still significant improvements in targeted therapy development as well as decreases in drug treatment failures. In this regard, preclinical animal research is fundamental to advance our understanding of tumor biology, and diagnostic and therapeutic response. Most importantly, the ability to measure drug-target engagement accurately in live and intact animals is critical in guiding the development and optimization of targeted therapy. However, a major limitation of preclinical molecular imaging modalities is their lack of capability to directly and quantitatively discriminate between drug accumulation and drug-target engagement at the pathological site. Recently, we have developed Macroscopic Fluorescence Lifetime Imaging (MFLI) as a unique feature of optical imaging to quantitate in vivo drug-target engagement. MFLI quantitatively reports on nanoscale interactions via lifetime-sensing of Förster Resonance Energy Transfer (FRET) in live, intact animals. Hence, MFLI FRET acts as a direct reporter of receptor dimerization and target engagement via the measurement of the fraction of labeled-donor entity undergoing binding to its respective receptor. MFLI is expected to greatly impact preclinical imaging and also adjacent fields such as image-guided surgery and drug development.

Abstract
A major focus of current biological studies is to fill the knowledge gaps between cell, tissue and organism scales. To this end, a wide array of contemporary optical analytical tools enable multiparameter quantitative imaging of live and fixed cells, three-dimensional (3D) systems, tissues, organs and organisms in the context of their complex spatiotemporal biological and molecular features. In particular, the modalities of luminescence lifetime imaging, comprising fluorescence lifetime imaging (FLI) and phosphorescence lifetime imaging microscopy (PLIM), in synergy with Förster resonance energy transfer (FRET) assays, provide a wealth of information. On the application side, the luminescence lifetime of endogenous molecules inside cells and tissues, overexpressed fluorescent protein fusion biosensor constructs or probes delivered externally provide molecular insights at multiple scales into protein-protein interaction networks, cellular metabolism, dynamics of molecular oxygen and hypoxia, physiologically important ions, and other physical and physiological parameters. Luminescence lifetime imaging offers a unique window into the physiological and structural environment of cells and tissues, enabling a new level of functional and molecular analysis in addition to providing 3D spatially resolved and longitudinal measurements that can range from microscopic to macroscopic scale. We provide an overview of luminescence lifetime imaging and summarize key biological applications from cells and tissues to organisms.

Abstract
With more than 90 approved drugs by 2020, therapeutic antibodies have played a central role in shifting the treatment landscape of many diseases, including autoimmune disorders and cancers. While showing many therapeutic advantages such as long half-life and highly selective actions, therapeutic antibodies still face many outstanding issues associated with their pharmacokinetics (PK) and pharmacodynamics (PD), including high variabilities, low tissue distributions, poorly-defined PK/PD characteristics for novel antibody formats, and high rates of treatment resistance. We have witnessed many successful cases applying PK/PD modeling to answer critical questions in therapeutic antibodies’ development and regulations. These models have yielded substantial insights into antibody PK/PD properties. This review summarized the progress, challenges, and future directions in modeling antibody PK/PD and highlighted the potential of applying mechanistic models addressing the development questions.
