Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention relates to the technical field of aggregation-induced luminescence materials, and in particular to a near-infrared second-region aggregation-induced luminescence material, a preparation method and an application thereof. Background Art

[0002] At a time when integrated biomedical imaging and diagnosis and treatment technologies are developing rapidly, luminescent materials in the second near-infrared window (NIR-II, wavelength range 1000-1700nm) have attracted much attention due to their unique advantages of real-time, in situ and high spatiotemporal resolution. These outstanding characteristics make NIR-II fluorescence imaging an ideal tool for guiding complex treatment processes in vivo, especially for disease scenarios that are highly dependent on surgery, such as tumor boundary definition, tissue necrosis judgment and organ transplant monitoring. In addition to imaging equipment, imaging quality is also heavily dependent on the photophysical properties of contrast agents. Among them, quantum yield has a decisive influence on imaging sensitivity and tissue penetration depth. Contrast agents with high quantum yield can produce strong fluorescence signals at lower excitation light intensities, thereby improving the signal-to-noise ratio of imaging and enhancing the ability to detect weak biological signals. However, due to the interference of various photophysical processes such as excited state structural relaxation, ground state-excited state coupling and concentration quenching, the luminescence efficiency of NIR-II materials is generally low (less than 1%). Although numerous molecular systems with red-shifted emission wavelengths have been developed, there has been limited progress in effective strategies to improve quantum yield, making it a major challenge to achieve NIR-II imaging with high signal-to-noise ratio and deep tissue penetration.

[0003] Reducing the energy gap by constructing an extended planar conjugated skeleton or strong intramolecular donor-acceptor interactions is a common strategy for developing long-wavelength luminophores. However, the unavoidable intermolecular π-π stacking and molecular motion between the donor and acceptor accelerate the non-radiative decay process, resulting in a significant decrease in the luminescence efficiency of NIR-II materials in aqueous physiological environments. Therefore, while strengthening the rigid structure at the molecular level, establishing a rigid environment that limits molecular deformation at the aggregate level is expected to be an effective way to develop high quantum yield NIR-II materials. However, due to weak intermolecular non-covalent interactions, current strategies make it difficult to achieve directional assembly of molecules to form a rigid aggregation environment.

[0075] Figure 3 Schematic diagram of the preparation process of B-ToMeT nanoparticles.

[0076] Effect verification

[0077] 1. Characterization of AIE properties

[0078] The AIE properties were tested by adjusting the volume ratio of the good solvent tetrahydrofuran and the poor solvent water.

[0079] Figure 1 Figure 2 shows the fluorescence spectra of B-DpMeT and B-ToMeT under different water content conditions. (a) is B-DpMeT, and (b) is B-ToMeT.

[0080] from Figure 1As can be seen from the figure, the B-DpMeT and B-ToMeT prepared in Examples 1-2 emit weak light in tetrahydrofuran, a good solvent. As the poor solvent water is added, aggregates are formed and the fluorescence gradually increases. This indicates that these materials all have AIE properties.

[0081] 2. Characterization of Crystal Structure and Packing Pattern

[0082] B-DpMeT and B-ToMeT crystals were obtained by slow solvent evaporation in toluene / methanol and tetrahydrofuran / methanol, respectively, and then characterized accordingly.

[0083] Figure 2 The crystal structures and stacking patterns of B-DpMeT and B-ToMeT are shown in Figure 1. (a) The crystal structure of B-DpMeT, (b) The crystal structure of B-ToMeT, (c) A schematic diagram of the intermolecular interactions in the B-DpMeT crystal structure, (d) A schematic diagram of the intermolecular interactions in the B-ToMeT crystal structure, (e) A simulated diagram of the stacking pattern of B-DpMeT, and (f) A simulated diagram of the stacking pattern of B-ToMeT.

[0084] from Figure 2 It can be seen that in the crystal, B-DpMeT molecules adopt a layer-by-layer stacking pattern, while B-ToMeT molecules adopt a mortise and tenon interlocking structure, indicating that B-ToMeT crystals have stronger intermolecular interactions and structural rigidity.

[0085] 3. Structural Characterization of B-ToMeT Nanoparticles

[0087] Figure 4 The two small figures on the left and right of a represent TEM images at different magnifications. Figure 4 TEM images of the B-ToMeT nanoparticles show lattice fringes and diffraction signals, indicating good crystallinity. DLS images show that the B-ToMeT nanoparticles have a particle size of approximately 60 nm and good stability.

[0088] 4. Characterization of Photophysical Properties of B-ToMeT Nanoparticles and B-DpMeT Nanoparticles

[0089] Figure 5 Figure 2 shows the photophysical properties of B-ToMeT nanoparticles and B-DpMeT nanoparticles. Where a is the emission spectrum and b is the fluorescence quantum yield.

[0090] Figure 5a shows that the emission peaks of B-ToMeT nanoparticles and B-DpMeT nanoparticles are located in the second near-infrared region. Figure 5 Figure b shows that the fluorescence quantum yields of B-DpMeT nanoparticles and B-ToMeT nanoparticles are 10.2% and 28.2%, respectively, indicating that the fluorescence performance of both has reached a very high level, and B-ToMeT nanoparticles have better luminescence properties, which is conducive to obtaining better imaging effects.

[0091] 5. Biocompatibility evaluation of B-ToMeT nanoparticles at the cellular and animal levels

[0092] NIH 3T3 and HUVEC cells were used to evaluate the cytotoxicity of B-ToMeT nanoparticles. NIH 3T3 and HUVEC cells were plated in 96-well plates and cultured for 24 hours, then co-cultured with different concentrations of B-ToMeT nanoparticles for 24 hours. The cytotoxicity of the cells was detected by MTT. The test results are shown in Figure 6 a.

[0093] Healthy BALB / c nude mice were used to evaluate the toxicity of B-ToMeT nanoparticles at the animal level. B-ToMeT nanoparticles were injected into the Balb / c nude mice via the tail vein. Two weeks later, the main organs (heart, liver, spleen, lung, and kidney) of the nude mice were taken for pathological analysis. The test results are shown in Figure 6 b.

[0094] Figure 6 Biocompatibility evaluation of B-ToMeT nanoparticles at the cellular level (a) and animal level (b).

[0095] like Figure 6 As shown in a, B-ToMeT nanoparticles have no obvious cytotoxicity. Figure 6 As shown in b, there were no obvious lesions in the main organs of the mice, indicating that B-ToMeT nanoparticles have excellent biocompatibility.

[0096] 6. Evaluation of the Penetration Depth of B-ToMeT Nanoparticles

[0097] B-ToMeT nanoparticles were loaded into capillaries and covered with tissue phantoms of different thicknesses to evaluate the penetration depth.

[0098] Figure 7 The penetration depth of B-DpMeT nanoparticles and B-ToMeT nanoparticles is evaluated. (a) is the penetration depth imaging image, and (b) is the curve of the signal-to-noise ratio as a function of penetration depth.

[0099] like Figure 7As shown in the figure, the penetration depths of B-DpMeT nanoparticles and B-ToMeT nanoparticles reached a high level, and the penetration depth of B-ToMeT nanoparticles could reach 1.5 cm, indicating that they are suitable for deep tissue imaging.

[0100] 7. Evaluation of Blood Circulation Time of B-ToMeT Nanoparticles

[0101] B-ToMeT nanoparticles were injected into Balb / c nude mice via the tail vein, and blood was collected from the mice at different time points to measure the fluorescence intensity and evaluate the blood circulation time.

[0102] Figure 8 Evaluation of the blood circulation time of B-ToMeT nanoparticles.

[0103] like Figure 8 As shown, the blood circulation time of B-ToMeT nanoparticles is as long as 18.45 hours, which is conducive to long-term fluorescence imaging.

[0104] 8. Mouse Intestinal Vascular Imaging

[0105] B-ToMeT nanoparticles were injected into healthy mice through the tail vein, and the fluorescence signals of the intestinal blood vessels of the mice were collected using a fluorescence imager (long pass 1300 nm).

[0106] Figure 9 Figure 1 shows images of intestinal arteries and veins captured using B-ToMeT nanoparticles and the corresponding signal-to-noise ratio analysis. (a) shows a white light image of the intestine, (b) and (c) show fluorescence images of the intestinal arteries and veins, and (d) shows the signal-to-noise ratio analysis.

[0107] like Figure 9 As shown in a, b, and c, after the injection of nanoparticles, the arteries and veins in the intestines of mice were clearly visible, and the signal-to-noise ratios reached 5.02 and 4.28, respectively. Figure 9 d).

[0108] 9. Early Monitoring and Recovery Assessment of Acute Intestinal Ischemia in Mice

[0109] First, two models of mesenteric thrombosis (intestinal obstruction) and intestinal volvulus were established, and the relevant data were tested respectively.

[0110] Figure 10 Figure 2 shows the early diagnosis of acute intestinal ischemia using B-ToMeT nanoparticles and the corresponding signal-to-noise ratio analysis. (a) Intestinal obstruction and (b) Intestinal volvulus.

[0111] like Figure 10As shown in Figure a, after tail vein injection of B-ToMeT nanoparticles, obvious fluorescent signals were observed in the healthy part of the intestine, while no fluorescent signals could be detected in the ischemic part due to the obstruction of the intestinal artery. After the obstruction was cleared, the fluorescence was restored, indicating that blood flow was restored to the ischemic part. Similarly, B-ToMeT nanoparticles were also used to evaluate ischemia caused by intestinal volvulus; as shown in Figure 4, the fluorescence signal was not detected in the ischemic part. Figure 10 As shown in (b), after tail vein injection of B-ToMeT nanoparticles, the healthy part of the intestine showed a clear fluorescent signal, while the torsion part showed almost no fluorescent signal due to blood flow obstruction. As the torsion recovered, fluorescence appeared, indicating that blood supply had been successfully restored.

[0112] 10. Fluorescence Imaging Surgical Navigation for Acute Intestinal Ischemia in Mice

[0113] Surgery was performed on mice with acute intestinal ischemia (ileus and volvulus), and relevant data before and after the surgery were collected.

[0114] Figure 11 This image shows surgical navigation for acute intestinal ischemia using B-ToMeT nanoparticles. Figures a and b are white-light and fluorescence images related to surgical navigation for intestinal obstruction, and c and d are white-light and fluorescence images related to surgical navigation for intestinal volvulus.

[0115] like Figure 11 As shown in a and b, after the tail vein injection of B-ToMeT nanoparticles, there is almost no fluorescence signal in the ischemic part. After the obstruction is removed, the fluorescence cannot be restored, indicating that the ischemic part has been necrotic. To ensure the health of the remaining intestine, the necrotic part is removed and the intestinal anastomosis is performed under fluorescence guidance. Similarly, B-ToMeT nanoparticles can also be used for surgical navigation of ischemic necrosis caused by torsion of the intestine, such as Figure 11 As shown in c and d, under fluorescence guidance, the necrotic intestinal part was precisely resected and then intestinal anastomosis was performed.
