[0028] Example 1 Imaging method based on intracellular in situ biosynthesis of gold nanoclusters

[0029] First, incubate HepG2 cells with a sterile concentration of 1-1000 μmol / L chloroauric acid or its salt solution for 16-48 hours (37 °C, 5 % CO 2 , RH 95%) to obtain gold nanoclusters with in situ biosynthesis in vivo. Then carefully remove the culture medium in the culture dish, and gently rinse the cells with sterile PBS with pH 7.2, place them under a laser focusing fluorescence microscope, and use blue light with a wavelength of 488 nm for excitation to collect the green fluorescence of the cells In the image, it can be clearly observed that the gold nanoclusters are mainly concentrated in the nucleus area by fluorescence tomography.

[0030] Example 2 Tumor targeting imaging method based on in situ growth of gold nanoclusters in living lesions

[0031]Firstly, 0.1-0.5 mL sterile chloroauric acid or its salt solution with a concentration of 1-1000 mmol / L was injected subcutaneously near the tumor of nude mice implanted with liver cancer tumor model, and after incubation for 12-36 hours, the The experimental nude mice were anesthetized with 5% isoflurane gas, and then placed on the operating platform of the small animal in vivo imager, and the images of the tumor area could be collected by selecting blue light excitation.

Abstract

The invention discloses a tumor-targeting living body multimodality imaging and analyzing method based on gold nano-clusters. According to the invention, through an in-vitro cell (including various tumor cells and normal cells) experiment, related cells and chlorauric acid with a certain concentration and a salt solution thereof are incubated under a physiological condition, such that gold nano-clusters are produced; and real-time non-invasive high-resolution tumor cell fluorescence imaging, Raman imaging and ultrasound imaging can be realized. On the basis, a local subcutaneous injection method is adopted, and real-time in-situ living body tumor-targeting fluorescence imaging, Raman imaging and ultrasound imaging are realized on tumor-transplantation nude mice models. With the functional nano-grade probes, multiple functions of tumor targeting, fluorescence imaging, Raman imaging and ultrasound imaging are combined, such that multimodality synchronic monitoring can be realized. Also, with the gold nano-cluster in-situ living body imaging method, accurate positioning and tumor-targeting imaging and analysis can be realized.

Description

technical field [0001] The present invention relates to the technical field of tumor detection, and more specifically relates to a method for preparing tumor-targeting nanoprobes. Nanobiological probes such as gold nanoclusters with tumor-targeting molecular imaging are grown in situ on living body lesions. Functional nanoprobes integrate tumor targeting, fluorescence imaging, Raman imaging, and ultrasound imaging into one, and can realize multi-modal simultaneous monitoring, and this in situ in vivo imaging method can not only perform early diagnosis of tumors but also in Timely monitoring during cancer treatment. Background technique [0002] Tumors, especially malignant tumors - Cancer is the leading cause of death in humans. Despite great developments in tumor biology and oncology medicine, such as the discovery of tumor biomarkers, facile surgical procedures, and the development of radiotherapy and chemotherapy, the overall cancer survival rate has not improved signifi...
