Fluorescent nanoparticles (FNs) with unique optical properties may be useful as biosensors in living cancer cell imaging and cancer targeting. In this study, anti-EGFR antibody conjugated fluorescent nanoparticles (FNs) (anti-EGFR antibody conjugated FNs) probe was used to detect breast cancer cells. FNs with excellent character such as non-toxicity and photostability were first synthesized with a simple, cost-effective and environmentally friendly modified Stőber synthesis method, and then successfully modified with anti-EGFR antibody. This kind of fluorescence probe based on the anti-EGFR antibody conjugated FNs has been used to detect breast cancer cells with fluorescence microscopy imaging technology. The experimental results demonstrate that the anti-EGFR antibody conjugated FNs can effectively recognize breast cancer cells and exhibited good sensitivity and exceptional photostability, which would provide a novel way for the diagnosis and curative effect observation of breast cancer cells and offer a new method in detecting EGFR.  相似文献

A sensitive fluoroimmunoassay (FIA) was developed for the determination of human chorionic gonadotropin (β-HCG). It is based on fluorescent polymer nanoparticles (PFNPs) coated with anti-β-HCG monoclonal antibodies in a sandwich type of fluoroimmunoassay. The PFNPs were synthesized by precipitation polymerization using methacrylic acid (MAA) as the monomer, trimethylolpropane trimethacrylate as the cross-linker, azobisisobutyronitrile as the radical initiator, and fluorescein as the fluorophore. Anti-β-HCG monoclonal antibody was labeled with the PFNPs and then used in a FIA of β-HCG in human serum samples using low-fluorescent transparent 96-well microtiter plates. The calibration graph for β-HCG is linear over the range from 1.25 to 300 mIU mL-1 with a detection limit of 0.3 mIU mL-1 (3σ). The relative standard deviation for seven parallel measurements of 10 mIU mL-1 of β-HCG is 3.8%. The method has the specificity of an immunoassay and the sensitivity of fluorescent nanoparticle label technology.  相似文献

We report on the fabrication and characterization of biofunctional magnetic nanoparticles as contrast agents for magnetic resonance imaging. The anti-cancer antigen 19-9 monoclonal antibody (a cancer-targeting antibody) was conjugated onto the magnetic contrast agents in an effort to detect pancreatic tumor. The structure, size, morphology and magnetic property of the biofunctional magnetic nanoparticles are characterized systematically by means of transmission electron microscopy and X-ray diffractometry. Furthermore, the interaction between the nanoparticles and pancreas cancers cells are investigated by atomic force microscope and transmission electron microscopy. Magnetic resonance imaging demonstrates that the conjugated nanoparticles can effectively target cancer cells both in vitro and in vivo, suggesting that they potentially can be used as contrast agents for magnetic resonance imaging of pancreas cancer.  相似文献

We report a stimuli‐responsive fluorescent nanomaterial, based on graphene oxide coupled with a polymer conjugated with photochromic spiropyran (SP) dye and hydrophobic boron dipyrromethane (BODIPY) dye, for application in triggered target multicolor bioimaging. Graphene oxide (GO) was reduced by catechol‐conjugated polymers under mildly alkaline conditions, which enabled to formation of functionalized multicolor graphene nanoparticles that can be induced by irradiation with UV light and by changing the pH from acidic to neutral. Investigation of these nanoparticles by using AFM, fluorescence emission, and in vitro cell and in vivo imaging revealed that they show different tunable colors in bioimaging applications and, more specifically, in cancer‐cell detection. The stability, biocompatibility, and quenching efficacy of this nanocomposite open a different perspective for cell imaging in different independent colors, sequentially and simultaneously.  相似文献

A fluorescent silica nanoparticles (FSiNPs) mediated double immunofluorescence staining technique has been proposed for MGC-803 gastric cancer cells imaging by confocal laser scanning microscopy. Anti-CEA antibody and anti-CK19 antibody which can be both bonded to MGC-803 gastric cancer cells were first conjugated to fluorescein isothiocyanate (FITC) doped fluorescent silica nanoparticles (FFSiNPs) and RuBPY doped fluorescent silica nanoparticles (RFSiNPs), respectively. The MGC-803 gastric cancer cells were incubated with the mixture of anti-CEA antibody-conjugated FFSiNPs and anti-CK19 antibody-conjugated RFSiNPs, and subsequently imaged using confocal laser scanning microscopy. With this method, the in vitro cultured MGC-803 gastric cancer cells lines were successfully doubled labeled and distinguished through antigen-antibody recognition, together with the green and red signal of FFSiNPs and RFSiNPs simultaneously obtained without crossreactivity by confocal laser scanning microscopy imaging. By comparison with the conventional double immunofluorescence staining using green-emitting and red-emitting dyes, the photostability of this proposed method for confocal laser scanning microscopy imaging has been greatly improved. Furthermore, the ex vivo imaging of primary MGC-803 gastric cancer cells samples came from the tumor tissues of mice bearing the MGC gastric cancer tumor xenografts by this method have also been explored. The results demonstrate that the method offers potential advantage of photostability for the confocal laser scanning microscopy imaging of MGC-803 gastric cancer cells, and is applicable to the imaging of primary MGC-803 gastric cancer cells from the tumor tissues.  相似文献

Fluorescent nanoparticles based on π‐conjugated small molecules and polymers are two different classes of π‐conjugated systems that have attracted much interest. To date, both emerging classes have only been studied separately and showed no clear differences in their properties. Herein these nanoparticles are compared on the basis of a fluorene co‐polymer and its corresponding small molecule. Both systems formed nanoparticles with the same diameter, whereas the fluorescence properties clearly differed. In case of the polymer the fluorescence diminished, whereas for the small molecules the fluorescence increased. In addition, the capability of encapsulation and release of a hydrophobic dye from the fluorescent nanoparticles was studied. For the polymer system, encapsulation was highly efficient and no release was observed, whereas for the small molecule system encapsulation was less efficient and release of the dye was observed. These studies show a clear difference between small molecules and polymers which has important implications for the design of fluorescent nanoparticles.  相似文献

Two-photon excitation microscopy (2PEM) has been known as a noninvasive and powerful bio-imaging tool for studying living cells, intact tissues and living animals because of their unique advantages such as localized excitation, deep tissue penetration as well as less photo-damage. However, the major limitations that hinder its practical applications in biological systems are low two-photon absorption cross sections of conventional fluorescence probes. Conjugated polymer nanoparticles (CPNs) consisting of highly fluorescent conjugated polymers are promising fluorescent probes for 2PEM due to their unique advantages including large two-photon absorption cross sections, high fluorescence quantum yield, good photo-stability and biocompatibility, facile chemical synthesis, tunable optical properties as well as versatile surface modifications. This account summarizes the recent efforts of our group on development of novel polyfluorene based CPNs as 2PEM contrast agents for live cell imaging.  相似文献

Abstract

Cervical cancer is the second most common cancer in women worldwide with 80% of cases arising in the developing world, following cancer of the breast. The mortality associated with cervical cancer can be reduced if this disease is detected in a timely fashion. In this study, a folate conjugated fluorescent nanoparticle (FCFN) probe was used to detect cervical cancer cells. Fluorescent nanoparticles (FNs), with excellent characteristics such as nontoxicity and photostability, were first synthesized with a simple, cost-effective, and environmentally friendly modified St?ber synthesis method and then successfully modified with folate. This kind of fluorescence probe based on FCFNs has been used to detect cervical cancer cells with fluorescence microscopy imaging technology. The experimental results demonstrate that the FCFNs can effectively recognize cervical cancer cells and exhibit good sensitivity and exceptional photostability; they would provide a novel way for the diagnosis and curative effect observation of cervical cancer cells and offer a new method in detecting folate receptors (FR).  相似文献

Heptamethine cyanine dyes enable deep tissue fluorescence imaging in the near infrared (NIR) window. Small molecule conjugates of the benchmark dye ZW800-1 have been tested in humans. However, long-term imaging protocols using ZW800-1 conjugates are limited by their instability, primarily because the chemically labile C4′-O-aryl linker is susceptible to cleavage by biological nucleophiles. Here, we report a modular synthetic method that produces novel doubly strapped zwitterionic heptamethine cyanine dyes, including a structural analogue of ZW800-1 , with greatly enhanced dye stability. NIR-I and NIR-II versions of these doubly strapped dyes can be conjugated to proteins, including monoclonal antibodies, without causing undesired fluorophore degradation or dye stacking on the protein surface. The fluorescent antibody conjugates show excellent tumor-targeting specificity in a xenograft mouse tumor model. The enhanced stability provided by doubly strapped molecular design will enable new classes of in vivo NIR fluorescence imaging experiments with possible translation to humans.  相似文献
