Problems solved by technology

At present, the literature has reported that using cancer cell-specific markers such as EGFR, Her2 / neu, etc., to design fluorescent dye antibodies for labeling detection, but such markers and their expression levels are closely related to specific tumor types and cannot be widely used. Widespread Tumor Detection
There are also studies using the abnormal angiogenesis and acidic environment in the tumor microenvironment to design materials with pH response for tumor detection, but the material preparation is very complicated
The use of tumor tissue-specific signals to detect tumors has high sensitivity and strong practicability, but there are still many problems to be solved in terms of limitations of tumor types, lack of preparation of new materials, background interference, etc.

Embodiment 1

[0023] The ability of GQDs to respond to intratumoral pressure:

[0024] To test the specific targeting ability of pressure-responsive GQDs to tumors, breast cancer tumors were inoculated into the right hind limbs of mice by subcutaneous transplantation to establish animal tumor models. GQDs (30-200 mg / kg) were intravenously injected into the animal model every other day. After 0.5 h, the intratumoral pressure was detected, and the distribution of GQDs in the tumor tissue was observed by sectioning. The "needle core" technique was used to detect the IFP value in the tumor. Fill a standard 23-gauge injection needle with nylon thread and saline (to which 50 IE / ml heparin is added), insert it into the center of the tumor tissue, and connect the syringe to the pressure transducer. This device can continuously and stably detect fluid pressure. During detection, fluid connectivity between the needle and sensor is determined through compression and decompression. The average value...

Embodiment 2

[0026] GQDs tumor pressure response is sensitive, and after drug depressurization, tumor cell nuclei cannot be labeled:

[0027]Nicotinic acid was dissolved in normal saline, and niacin was injected intraperitoneally (500 mg / kg, 0.01 ml / g, detected 1 h after injection); after this method, IFP decreased by 60%. Imatinib was dissolved in normal saline, and imatinib was injected by intragastric administration (50 mg / kg, administered daily, tested after four days). The "needle and core" technique described above was used to detect the IFP value in the tumor. The average value of two readings was taken as the tumor IFP value, and the IFP value in the muscle or subcutaneous tissue was used as a blank. The tumor IFP value decreased by 40% in this method. Then 60 mg / kg GQDs were injected into the animal model for 0.5 h, and the tumor tissue was taken out to make a 20 μm thick cryosection sample, which was used to observe the distribution of GQDs in the tumor tissue by laser confocal ...

Embodiment 3

[0029] GQDs are non-toxic in vivo and in vitro, and can be rapidly and completely metabolized:

[0030] In the process of stress-sensitive response to targeted markers in tumor cell nuclei, none of the GQDs produced toxicity and could rapidly metabolize cells and tissues. After 0.5 h of tail vein injection, the tumor tissue was specifically targeted in vivo, and the nuclei of tumor tissue were efficiently labeled, and most of them were metabolized from the body after 24 h, showing low toxicity in vivo. A large number of GQDs are accumulated in the tumor tissue cells, only a small amount exists in the normal tissue interstitium, and do not enter the normal tissue nucleus. This method has no tumor specificity, and is universal and applicable.

Abstract

The invention relates to a new method for producing response aiming at tumor internal fluid pressure and used for tumor cell detection through a graphene quantum dot biological fluorescent probe. The method belongs to the field of nanobiomedicine detection analysis, and comprises the following three main contents: (1) pressure of a graphene quantum dot (GQDs) in vivo efficient targeting tumor tissue cell nucleus responds sensitively; (2) a GQDs pressure response effect is sensitive; (3) the GQDs are non-toxic in vivo and in vitro, and can be quickly and completely metabolized.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to a method for tumor detection using graphene quantum dots, in particular to a method for tumor detection based on intratumoral interstitial fluid pressure response using graphene quantum dots. Background technique [0002] In recent years, in the fields of biology and medicine, many researchers have devoted themselves to studying materials with high performance and bioresponsive properties to respond to and amplify the lesion signal in the tumor area, thereby distinguishing tumor tissue from normal tissue. This is attracting widespread attention in the scientific community in terms of tumor diagnosis and treatment, but great challenges remain. [0003] Different from normal tissues, there are specific signals in the tumor microenvironment: abnormal growth of blood vessels in tumor tissue, complex structure, high interstitial fluid pressure (IFP) in tumor tissue, hypoxic environment, acidic pH environment, cancer cell-specific S...
