Existing technologies are not effective in treating hypoxic tumors. Radionuclide therapy and sonodynamic therapy have limitations in efficacy due to uneven biological distribution, radiation blind spots, and tumor cell self-repair issues.
The acoustic sensitizer MnTTP and the hypoxia-activating drug TPZ were loaded onto PLGA via an emulsion-solvent evaporation method and modified into an aqueous phase by PVA. Dopamine hydrochloride was used to increase biocompatibility, and the nanoprobe TMP@D was prepared. Then, the radionuclide 131I was labeled on TMP@D to form 131I-TMP@D.

Abstract

Technical Field
[0001] This invention relates to the field of nanobioprobe technology, and in particular to a method for preparing and applying a nanoprobe for multimodal imaging and synergistic therapy. Background Technology
[0002] Recent research indicates that cancer-related deaths have increased by 20% in recent years. Pancreatic cancer, often considered the "king of cancers," has a survival rate of only 12%, with most cases diagnosed at a time when it is inoperable or metastatic. The low oxygen content and dense structure of malignant tumor tissue are major reasons for resistance to conventional radiotherapy and chemotherapy. Therefore, improving the hypoxia level of tumor tissue can significantly improve the prognosis of cancer treatment. Reactive oxygen species (ROS), as products of aerobic respiration, have been shown to have significant killing effects on malignant tumors through multiple pathways. However, the production of ROS is accompanied by a further reduction in the oxygen content of tumor tissue, making drug resistance even more pronounced. Therefore, developing a probe capable of generating large amounts of ROS and alleviating hypoxia is essential.
[0003] Internal radiation therapy, which concentrates radioactive isotopes at the tumor site, is a highly effective method for treating malignant tumors. This treatment utilizes the energy accumulation of high-energy rays and the close-range action of the rays to efficiently kill tumor cells. 131 I-12, a "star radionuclide" in internal radiotherapy, boasts an excellent half-life (7.6 days), and its released beta rays exhibit superior linear energy transfer compared to X-rays. Beta rays not only damage tumor cell DNA double-strands but also radiate surrounding water molecules to generate reactive oxygen species (ROS), thereby damaging tumor cells. Simultaneously, 131 I-rays emitted by radionuclide radiation have been widely used in functional imaging SPECT (single-photon emission computed tomography). However, radionuclide therapy still needs to consider issues such as uneven biological distribution and radiation blind spots. Furthermore, the radiation resistance of hypoxic tumors and the self-repair of tumor cells' DNA further limit the efficacy of radionuclide therapy. Utilizing nanomaterials to deliver drugs and target radionuclides to tumor sites can significantly improve the shortcomings of radionuclide therapy.
[0004] Polylactic acid-glycolic acid copolymer (PLGA) is a biodegradable high-molecular-weight organic compound with good biocompatibility as a drug carrier, and is widely used in the biomedical field. Sonodynamic therapy (SDT) damages tumor cells by activating a sonosensitive agent with ultrasound to generate reactive oxygen species (ROS). Common sonosensitive agents include porphyrins, phthalocyanines, and porphyrins. Manganese porphyrin (MnTTP) can not only be used as a sonosensitive agent, but the Mn group in the porphyrin ring... 2+ Sensitive to T1-weighted magnetic resonance imaging (MRI), using Mn 2+The accumulation effect of nanoprobes at the tumor site can be observed at different times using MRI (magnetic resonance imaging). The therapeutic effect of SDT is largely affected by the location, concentration, and duration of the sonosensitive agent. Loading drugs into PLGA allows them to enter the tumor tissue under passive targeting and release them at the tumor site. 131 I and MnTTP, upon ultrasound activation, generate a large amount of ROS. Simultaneously, the bioreducing drug telatazamine (TPZ) loaded on the PLGA is extensively activated under the aggravated hypoxia state induced by radionuclide therapy and SDT to promote bioreducing chemotherapy.
[0005] Therefore, develop a 131 The use of I-labeled nanoprobes in conjunction with sonodynamics and chemotherapy to provide a new treatment approach for malignant tumors is of great clinical value. Summary of the Invention

[0044] The specific embodiments of the present invention will be described in further detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings and examples. The following examples are for illustrative purposes only and are not intended to limit the scope of the invention.
[0045] The present invention provides a method for preparing nanoprobes for multimodal imaging and synergistic therapy. This method involves loading the acoustic sensitizer MnTTP and the hypoxia-activating drug TPZ onto a PLGA via an emulsion-solvent evaporation method, modifying it to an aqueous phase using PVA, and using dopamine hydrochloride to increase biocompatibility, resulting in the nanoprobe TMP@D. Then, a radionuclide is... 131 I-labeling on TMP@D yields radionuclide-loaded nanoprobes. 131 I-TMP@D.
[0046] In one specific embodiment, the synthesis steps of TMP@D are as follows:
[0047] S1, PLGA, MnTTP and TPZ are co-dissolved in dichloromethane, ultrasonically vibrated and then PVA is added dropwise while stirring in the dark to form an oil-in-water structure;
[0048] S2, the solution obtained from S1 is adjusted with Tris base;
[0049] S3, add dopamine hydrochloride to the solution obtained in S2, and continue stirring after ultrasonic vibration;
[0050] S4. The solution obtained in S3 was filtered through a liposome extruder, and then repeatedly ultrafiltered to retain 10kd molecular weight nanoprobes. After freeze-drying, TMP@D was obtained.
[0051] More specifically, in S1: 20 mg PLGA, 2 mg TPZ, and 1 mg MnTTP are weighed and added to 1 mL of dichloromethane. After ultrasonic oscillation for 10 min, 50 mg PVA with a molecular weight of 20,000-40,000 is added dropwise to a solution formed by dissolving 5 mL of pure water. The mixture is stirred in the dark for 12 h, and the reaction system changes from a water-oil separation structure to a clear yellow water-in-oil structure.
[0052] In S2: the pH of the solution obtained in S1 is adjusted to 8.5 using Tris base;
[0053] In S3: 8 mg of dopamine hydrochloride powder was weighed and added to the solution obtained in S2. After the reaction system was ultrasonically vibrated for 5 min, it was transferred to a magnetic stirrer and stirred continuously at room temperature in the dark for 12 h. The solution became a black aqueous solution without precipitate.
[0054] In step S4, the solution obtained in step S3 is filtered through an Avanti Polar Lipids liposome extruder and a 0.4 μm filter membrane. Then, it is ultrafiltered using a 10 kDa Millipore ultrafiltration tube at 5000 rpm for 10 min. The solution is washed three times with pure water until the filtrate is clear. The final solution is then freeze-dried for 48 h to obtain TMP@D, which is stored at 4°C.
[0055] In another embodiment, when TMP@D is prepared, a radionuclide is further prepared. 131 The I-marked TMP@D is... 131 The I-TMP@D method involves: [the radionuclide is then...] 131 I was labeled onto TMP@D using the chloramine-T method. Specifically: 3 mg TMP@D and 2 mCi Na were added. 131 I and 400 μL of chloramine T aqueous solution were sequentially added to a 25 mL reaction flask and mixed and stirred at room temperature in the dark. The resulting solution was then subjected to repeated ultrafiltration and centrifugation using a 10 kDa Millipore ultrafiltration tube at 5000 rpm for 10 min, followed by washing, until the filtrate was inactive. Preferably, the concentration of TMP@D is 3 mg·mL⁻¹. -1 The concentration of chloramine T aqueous solution is 10 mg·mL -1 The stirring time is 15 minutes.
[0056] To verify the performance of TMP@D prepared by the preparation method provided in this embodiment of the invention, the components of TMP@D were also characterized, referring to... Figure 1-4 .
[0057] The specific method is as follows: TMP (formed by stirring for 12 hours before adding dopamine) and TMP@D are dispersed in deionized water, and the particle size is measured using a Malvern particle size analyzer. The results are as follows: Figure 1 As shown. By Figure 1 The average particle size of TMP@D is 101.6 ± 9.851 nm, making it suitable for tumor treatment via the EPR effect.
[0058] The TMP@D, MnTTP, and TPZ prepared above were used to form suspensions. Baseline correction was performed with pure water, and the UV-Vis spectrum from 230 nm to 600 nm was scanned. The results are shown in the appendix. Figure 2 As shown. By Figure 2It was found that TMP@D exhibited characteristic absorption peaks at 274 nm and 474 nm. The characteristic absorption peak at 274 nm was consistent with that of TPZ, while the characteristic absorption peak at 474 nm was consistent with that of both TPZ and MnTTP. This indicates that TPZ was ultimately loaded into TMP@D, but the UV-Vis spectroscopy results did not confirm successful loading of MnTTP.
[0059] Furthermore, the TMP@D, MnTTP, and TPZ solutions were excited at 360 nm, and the emission spectra of each component in the 420-700 nm range were measured. The results are shown in the appendix. Figure 3 As shown. By Figure 3 It can be seen that the emission spectrum of TMP@D in the 470-550nm range is consistent with that of MnTTP, but inconsistent with that of TPZ, indicating that TMP@D was successfully loaded with MnTTP.
[0060] Ultimately, the combined ultraviolet-visible spectroscopy and fluorescence emission spectroscopy demonstrated that TMP@D was successfully loaded with TPZ and MnTTP.
[0061] In addition, the potentials of TMP@D, MnTTP, and TPZ were measured respectively, and the results are attached. Figure 4 As shown. By Figure 4 It can be seen that TMP@D exhibits a negative potential and is stable at -26.46±1.93mV, indicating that TMP@D carries a negative charge on its surface and can be dispersed stably in solution.
[0062] Furthermore, the preparation method of the nanoprobe for multimodal imaging and synergistic therapy provided in this embodiment of the invention also includes testing the effect of TMP@D in releasing singlet oxygen. Specifically, the testing method involves testing the generation of singlet oxygen by different concentrations of TMP@D at the same ultrasonic power and by the same concentration of TMP@D at different ultrasonic cycles. (Using 1.5 W·cm⁻¹) -2 Ultrasound was used as the probe excitation source, pure water as the control group, and TMP@D concentrations of 50, 100, 200, and 400 μg / mL were used as experimental groups; 1.5 W·cm -2 Ultrasound was used as the probe excitation source. Zero ultrasound cycles served as the control group, and ultrasound cycles of 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, and 6 cycles were used as the two experimental groups, with a 1-minute interval between each. SOSG was used as the singlet oxygen detection reagent. The test results are as follows: Figure 5 and Figure 6 As shown.
[0063] Depend on Figure 5 It can be seen that, under the same ultrasonic power, the higher the TMP@D concentration, the more singlet oxygen is released. From... Figure 6 It can be seen that for the same concentration of TMP@D, under different sonication times, the more sonication times, the more singlet oxygen is produced.
[0064] In another embodiment, the method for preparing the nanoprobe for multimodal imaging and synergistic therapy further includes: detecting... 131 The nuclide stability efficiency of I-TMP@D is specifically detected by the following method: [The text abruptly ends here, likely due to an incomplete sentence or a missing section.] 131 I-TMP@D was placed in 2 mL of PBS and 2 mL of 1640 medium containing 10% fetal bovine serum (FBS), respectively; measurements were taken at different time points. 131 The radioactivity before and after I-TMP@D ultrafiltration is recorded as CPM0 before centrifugation and CPM1 after centrifugation with the probe retained. The formula for calculating the nuclide stabilization efficiency is: Nuclide stabilization efficiency = CPM1 / CPM0*100%.
[0065] Radiostability over time, such as Figure 7 As shown, by Figure 7 We can obtain, 131 The high labeling efficiency and radiostability of I-TMP@D within 7 days give it a high labeling efficiency and stability. 131 I-TMP@D offers better biocompatibility, reducing the release of radionuclides into other normal tissues during in vivo treatment and providing a safety guarantee for radionuclide therapy.
[0066] Furthermore, 131 I and 131 I-TMP@D was spotted onto a silica gel thin-layer chromatography plate, and acetone was used as the developing solvent. The radiochemical purity was determined using an FC-3600 Flow-Count system (Bioscan, America). The results are as follows: Figure 8 As shown. By Figure 8 It can be obtained that, with 131 I. Compare with (Figure a) to illustrate 131 The radionuclides on I-TMP@D (Figure b) exist stably in a form chelated onto nanoparticles.
[0067] Furthermore, the method for preparing nanoprobes for multimodal imaging and synergistic therapy provided in this embodiment of the invention further includes: [further details needed - likely related to the preparation of nanoprobes for multimodal imaging and synergistic therapy]. 131 I-TMP@D was used for toxicity testing and synergistic therapy testing against pancreatic cancer cells. 131 The specific detection method for I-TMP@D toxicity is as follows: using different concentrations... 131 I-TMP@D was used as the experimental group. After incubating BxPC3 (human orthotopic pancreatic cancer cells) cells for 4 hours, cell viability was detected using CCK-8 assay. The specific detection method for synergistic treatment of pancreatic cancer cells was as follows: 131 I, TMP@D, 131 I-TMP@D, TMP@D+US and 131I-TMP@D+US was used as the experimental group, and the control group was added with an equal amount of culture medium. After incubation for 4 hours, the power was increased to 1.5 W·cm⁻¹. -2 Cells were irradiated with US radiation at 15-second intervals for 3 minutes, and then cell viability was detected using CCK-8 assay.
[0068] Specifically, 131 During I-TMP@D toxicity assay: BxPC3 cells were cultured at 5 × 10⁻⁶ 3 Cells were seeded at high density in 96-well plates and incubated overnight at 37°C. After washing away the culture medium with PBS, 100 μL of different concentrations of TMP@D (100, 200, 400, 800, 1000 μg / mL) were added to the experimental groups, 100 μL of 1640 medium was added to the control group, and 100 μL of 1640 medium was added to the blank group (which contained no cells). Five parallel sample wells were set up for each group. Different concentrations... 131 After incubating I-TMP@D and BxPC3 cells in an incubator for 4 hours, the cells were washed three times with PBS, incubated with fresh 1640 medium for 20 hours, and then 90 μL of 1640 and 10 μL of CCK-8 were added to each well. After 4 hours, the OD value was measured at 450 nm using a microplate reader, and the cell viability was calculated. The experimental results are as follows. Figure 9 As shown.
[0069] Depend on Figure 9 It can be concluded that the cytotoxicity of TMP@D itself can be judged by cell survival rate. Under normoxic conditions, the cell survival rate of high concentration of TMP@D exceeds 80%, indicating that it has almost no cytotoxicity. Under hypoxic conditions, the cell survival rate is low, indicating that TMP@D is beneficial for the treatment of hypoxic tumors.
[0070] Specifically, when performing synergistic therapy testing on pancreatic cancer cells: BxPC3 cells were administered at a concentration of 5 × 10⁻⁶ cells / year. 3 The culture medium was seeded at a density in 96-well plates and incubated overnight at 37°C. After washing away the culture medium with PBS, 100 μL of the culture medium was added to the experimental group. 131 I, TMP@D, 131 I-TMP@D, TMP@D+US and 131 I-TMP@D+US (50 μCi·mL) -1 2 mg·mL -1 The control group received 100 μL of 1640 medium, while the blank group (containing no cells) received 100 μL of 1640 medium. Five parallel sample wells were set up for each group. After cell treatment, each experimental group was washed three times with PBS, incubated with fresh 1640 medium for 20 h, and then 90 μL of 1640 and 10 μL of CCK-8 were added to each well. After 4 h, the OD value was measured at 450 nm using a microplate reader, and cell viability was calculated. Experimental results are as follows: Figure 10 As shown.
[0071] Depend on Figure 10 It can be seen that the cell survival rate after synergistic treatment under hypoxic conditions was only 22.36±6.626%, indicating that the treatment method of radionuclide therapy + sonodynamic therapy + hypoxic activating chemotherapy can greatly kill tumor cells.
[0072] In addition, this embodiment of the invention also performed in vivo imaging of the nanoprobe. Specifically, the tumor-bearing mouse model used 4-week-old male mice, and 1×10⁻⁶ nanoprobes were used to image the nanoprobes in vivo. 7 Cells were subcutaneously inoculated into the backs of mice. The tumors were allowed to grow to 800 mm. 3 At that time, TMP@D (10 mg / mL) was injected intratumorally. -1 MRI imaging was performed at different time points (0, 1, 3, 6, 12, and 24 hours) using 100 μL of ammonium chloride (m³). The imaging results are as follows: Figure 11 As shown. By Figure 11 It can be seen that TMP@D has a T1 relaxation response in vivo, and after intratumoral injection, the signal at the tumor site gradually diffuses and maintains a high signal over time.
[0073] The tumor volume reached 800 mm. 3 Tumor-bearing mice were randomly divided into two groups, and intratumoral injections were administered to each group. 131 I and 131 SPECT imaging was performed on I-TMP@D (200 μCi, 100 μL) at different time points: 0, 0.5, 1, 3, 6, 12, and 24 h. The imaging results are as follows: Figure 12 As shown. By Figure 12 It can be obtained that, with 131 Compared to I, 131 I-TMP@D can remain stable at the tumor site for at least 12 hours, while 131 I was present at the tumor site for less than 3 hours, proving 131 I-TMP@D can remain stably present at the tumor site for synergistic therapy.
[0074] It should be noted that in the above-mentioned embodiments of the present invention, statistical analysis was performed using Graphpad 10.1.1 software. The independent samples t-test was used for comparisons between two groups, and one-way ANOVA was used for comparisons among multiple groups. P < 0.05 was considered statistically significant.
[0075] In summary, the multimodal imaging and diagnostic probe provided in this embodiment of the invention... 131 I-TMP@D, with a core consisting of a nanocluster composite structure formed by PLGA-loaded MnTTP and TPZ, was modified with polyvinyl alcohol (PVA) to an aqueous phase and then coated with dopamine hydrochloride (PDA). Radionuclides were then labeled using the chloramine-T method. 131 I. Aqueous nanoclusters facilitate endocytosis into tumor cells, while the externally encapsulated dopamine hydrochloride provides... 131I labeling sites also increases the biocompatibility of nanoprobes, improves their size, and enhances their permeability and retention effect (EPR effect) at tumor sites.
[0076] Due to the hypoxia-activated properties of the probe, 131 I-TMP@D demonstrates excellent multimodal imaging and synergistic therapeutic capabilities in pancreatic cancer, a highly hypoxic malignant tumor, and is particularly suitable for MRI and SPECT imaging of pancreatic cancer.
[0077] The above description is merely a preferred embodiment of the present invention and is not intended to limit the present invention. It should be noted that for those skilled in the art, several improvements and modifications can be made without departing from the technical principles of the present invention, and these improvements and modifications should also be considered within the scope of protection of the present invention.
