Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention relates to the technical field of targeted recognition photothermal probes, and specifically to a MXene nanosheet-based active targeted recognition photothermal probe modified with a nucleic acid aptamer, and a preparation method and application thereof. Background Art

[0002] Mild photothermal therapy is an emerging tumor treatment method with great potential in the field of targeted photothermal therapy. Mild photothermal therapy has significant advantages over traditional high-temperature photothermal therapy, which is usually a therapy with a temperature above 50°C. Although high-temperature photothermal therapy can effectively kill cancer cells, it may also cause damage to surrounding healthy tissues, leading to treatment side effects and complications. Mild photothermal therapy can avoid these side effects while regulating the photothermal conversion performance and targeting of photothermal probes to achieve precise treatment of tumor tissues within a lower temperature range, usually below 46°C.

[0003] MXene is an emerging type of two-dimensional material, composed of transition metal carbides, nitrides or carbonitrides, with a unique layered structure and excellent physical and chemical properties; MXene materials have high electrical and thermal conductivity, good hydrophilicity and modifiability, high photothermal conversion efficiency, biocompatibility and degradability, and are widely used in drug delivery, bioimaging, diagnosis and treatment, etc.; By adjusting the size, morphology and surface properties of MXene materials, their photothermal conversion efficiency and targeting can be regulated, thereby achieving precise control of the photothermal therapy process; the high photothermal conversion efficiency of MXene materials means that the temperature required for treatment can be achieved at a lower light intensity, which helps to reduce damage to surrounding healthy tissues; in addition, through surface modification or combination with other molecules, MXene materials can achieve precise targeting of tumor tissues; under the irradiation of external light sources, these targeted aggregated MXene materials can generate local high temperatures, thereby effectively killing cancer cells;

[0004] The nucleolus is an important structure in the cell nucleus, which is mainly responsible for the synthesis of ribosomal RNA (rRNA) and the assembly of ribosomal subunits. Guanosine triphosphate (GTP) and adenosine triphosphate (ATP) are important nucleotides in the cell, playing a key role as energy molecules and signaling molecules. In the nucleolar stress response, GTP and its related metabolism and signaling pathways may play an important role. Therefore, detecting changes in ATP and GTP content in living cells plays an important role in the diagnosis and treatment of tumor cells.

[0005] Existing nanoprobes have poor specificity. Most of them focus on how to image ATP in cells. There are very few reports on simultaneous imaging of ATP and GTP in living cells. The photothermal effect of thermal killing of tumor cells needs to be improved. They have high cytotoxicity and damage to normal cells. They have low yield, high cost, and are difficult to operate.

[0006] In summary, how to design a photothermal probe that can achieve live cell imaging, actively target tumor cells specifically, improve the thermal killing ability of tumor cells, and reduce damage to surrounding normal tissues during mild photothermal therapy, while also being able to specifically detect changes in the content of ATP and GTP molecules and improve the diagnostic and therapeutic effect of photothermal therapy on tumor cells, has become an urgent problem to be solved.

[0133] like Fig.26 As shown, different concentrations of Ti3C2T x -ATP-GTP affects the cell viability of MCF-7 and MCF-10A cells after 24 h of incubation; Ti3C2T x - Cytotoxicity of ATP-GTP nanoprobe; Ti3C2T x -ATP-GTP nanoprobes showed negligible cytotoxicity in MCF-7 and MCF-10A cells; this result suggests that Ti3C2T x-ATP-GTP nanoprobes showed excellent biocompatibility; in order to increase cellular endocytosis, Ti3C2T x -The concentration of ATP-GTP nanoprobe was set to 30 μg mL -1 ;

[0134] like Fig. 27 As shown, MCF-7 and MCF-10A cells were treated with Ti3C2T x After 4 h of incubation with ATP-GTP, the cells were irradiated with 808 nm near-infrared light (1 W cm -2 ) cell survival rate; Ti3C2T x -ATP-GTP nanoprobes were incubated with MCF-7 and MCF-10A cells for 4 hours and then illuminated with 808 nm near-infrared light (1 W cm -2 ) irradiated at different time intervals; with the extension of 808nm near-infrared light irradiation time, the cell viability of cancerous MCF-7 cells decreased significantly, while normal MCF-10A cells were still able to maintain good cell viability;

[0135] like Fig.28 As shown, 808nm near-infrared light irradiation (1Wcm -2 ) after MCF-7 and MCF-10A cells were imaged; then, the Ti3C2T x -The photothermal effect of ATP-GTP nanoprobe on cells; 808nm near-infrared light (1Wcm -2 ) for 6 minutes, about half of the cancerous MCF-7 cells died, and almost all of them died after 9 minutes. In contrast, 808nm near-infrared light (1Wcm -2 ) for 12 minutes, only a portion of normal MCF-10A cells died; therefore, 808 nm near-infrared light (1 W cm -2 ) laser intensity for subsequent experiments; these results show that Ti3C2T x -ATP-GTP nanoprobes have good photothermal properties and the ability to specifically kill tumor cells, and have good application prospects in the research field of mPTT;

[0136] like Fig.29 As shown, MCF-7 and MCF-10A cells uptake Ti3C2T x -Quantitative test of ATP-GTP; in Ti3C2T xThe surface modification of FA-PEG-NH2 relies on the strong affinity of folic acid (FA) to the folate receptor (FR) on the surface of cancer cells, thereby enhancing the targeted endocytosis of the nanoprobe to tumor cells. Generally, FR is highly expressed in a variety of malignant tumors, while the expression of FR in normal cells is strictly restricted, making FR a commonly used tumor biomarker. The quantitative analysis results of inductively coupled plasma resonance emission spectrometry (ICP) show that Ti3C2T x -ATP-GTP nanoprobes were treated with MCF-7 and MCF-10A cells for 4 hours, and the intracellular Ti contents of MCF-7 and MCF-10A cells were 3.84±0.25mM and 1.16±0.12mM, respectively; this result shows that in Ti3C2T x The surface modification of FA-PEG-NH2 is more suitable for targeted biorecognition and enhances the endocytosis of nanoprobes into tumor cells;

[0137] mPTT activated ATP and GTP imaging test during nucleolar stress in living cells:

[0138] like Fig.30 As shown, using Ti3C2T x -ATP-GTP nanoprobes were used for live cell imaging to monitor the levels of GTP and ATP and their changes in real time during the nucleolar stress process of live cells activated by mPTT; in order to make the temperature of the cell culture medium comparable to the mPTT treatment temperature under the same conditions, an 808 nm laser with an intensity of 1 W cm -2 , respectively directly irradiating Ti3C2T x - MCF-7 and MCF-10A cells incubated with ATP-GTP nanoprobes without PBS washing; thermal infrared images of the two cells were monitored using a Fluke thermal imager; and photothermal temperature changes of the measured cells were observed;

[0139] like Fig.31As shown, the ability of nucleic acid aptamer-modified nanoprobes to display ATP and GTP in real-time fluorescence in living cells is demonstrated; for MCF-7 cells, after 3 minutes of mPTT laser irradiation, the temperature in the wells increased to 34.4°C, and the fluorescence intensity of ATP and GTP began to increase; it is obvious that ATP fluorescence is evenly distributed in the cells, while GTP fluorescence is mainly distributed in the cytoplasm; after 6 minutes of laser irradiation, the temperature in the wells increased to 39.3°C, most of the ATP fluorescence in the cells weakened, and a small part of ATP fluorescence around the nucleus increased; it is worth noting that at this time, GTP fluorescence tightly surrounded the nucleus area and was significantly enhanced, and some fluorescence even entered the nucleus; after 9 minutes of laser irradiation, the temperature of the cell culture medium increased to 43.2°C, and most of the ATP and GTP fluorescence were distributed around the nucleus; however, GTP fluorescence still partially surrounded the peripheral area of ​​the nucleus; after 12 minutes of irradiation, the temperature of the culture medium was increased to 45.5°C, and the green fluorescence of ATP and the red fluorescence of GTP were significantly weakened; this reduction in fluorescence is attributed to the consumption of energy metabolism in the process of tumor cell apoptosis induced by mPTT stimulation;

[0140] For comparison with cancer cells, the same experiment was performed on normal MCF-10A cells. After 808 nm laser irradiation for 3-6 min, the temperature of MCF-10A cells (solution) increased from 33.1°C to 37.9°C, and the green and red fluorescence in the cytoplasm increased and were evenly distributed. After 9 min of irradiation, the temperature of MCF-10A cells reached 42.1°C, and the green and red fluorescence increased and were distributed around the cell nucleus, but not obviously. After 12 min of laser irradiation, the green and red fluorescence weakened. These results indicate that the content of ATP and GTP in cells increases with the extension of photothermal treatment time. However, the change trend of normal cells is not as obvious as that of tumor cells. This study confirmed the Ti3C2T for mPTT by real-time monitoring and visualization of ATP and GTP in living cells. x -ATP-GTP nanoprobes are activated upon thermal stimulation, inducing tumor cell apoptosis through a specific nuclear stress process and inhibiting the energy metabolism of GTP.
