Description

TECHNICAL FIELD

[0001] The application belongs to the technical field of medicine, and relates to an iron-bismuth oxide multi-modal imaging probe and a preparation method and application thereof. BACKGROUND

[0002] Computed tomography (CT) is a widely used non-invasive diagnostic tool in clinical practice. However, the small molecule iodinated contrast agents (ICAs) commonly used in clinical CT imaging have limitations such as non-specific in vivo distribution and rapid renal clearance, resulting in a narrow imaging time window. Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) is a non-invasive medical imaging method that is routinely used in clinical practice, providing anatomical information with micron resolution, soft tissue contrast, and deep penetration. The use of contrast agents to enhance contrast by shortening the longitudinal (T1) or transverse (T2) relaxation time of water protons can significantly improve the resolution of MRI for disease diagnosis. For CT imaging, it can provide excellent spatial resolution and 3D images of tissues without depth limitation, but it cannot be used for targeted imaging and angiography, and it cannot distinguish different soft tissues with very close mass density. While MRI has the advantage of clearly displaying soft tissue structures and the disadvantage of low sensitivity for imaging tumor lesions. Therefore, single CT and MRI imaging has limitations and deficiencies in clinical application, and cannot meet the needs of precise imaging in clinical practice.

[0003] Currently, there is no drug in clinical practice that can simultaneously achieve the effect of enhancing CT and MRI imaging. Multi-modal imaging of CT and MRI is a powerful strategy that can provide complementary and reliable information about the disease site, and has important clinical significance. Inorganic nanoparticles have advantages in multi-modal imaging due to their customizable morphology (size, shape, porosity, etc.) and physical and chemical (optical, magnetic, catalytic, X-ray opacity, etc.) properties.

[0004] The tumor microenvironment (TME) has characteristics such as hypoxia, high levels of hydrogen peroxide and overexpression of glutathione (GSH), which are closely related to the development of tumors: the hypoxic state of the TME hinders many normal physiological processes and treatment-related reactions that rely on oxygen, such as some conventional oxidative reaction-based treatments, which are difficult to fully exert their effects due to the lack of sufficient oxygen as a reactant, greatly reducing the killing effect on tumor cells; the high levels of hydrogen peroxide in TEM can cause DNA damage, oxidative modification of proteins and lipids, and thus promote the survival and proliferation of tumor cells; overexpression of glutathione (GSH) provides a "protective umbrella" for tumor cells, and when it is overexpressed in the tumor microenvironment, whether it is the body's own immune defense mechanism that wants to kill tumor cells by producing some oxidizing substances or exogenous introduction of some treatment drugs based on the principle of oxidation, the process of exerting their effects will be interfered with by glutathione, and these oxidizing substances will be consumed by reacting with glutathione first and thus cannot cause substantial damage to tumor cells. These characteristics of TEM make malignant tumor cells resistant to oxidative stress, thereby exacerbating the challenge of achieving an ideal treatment effect. If appropriate strategies can be developed to cleverly target these characteristics, it may be possible to transform these seemingly "disadvantages" into powerful weapons against tumors, that is, the so-called "turning waste into treasure" strategy.

[0005] Nanocatalysts with active sites can catalyze cascade reactions through their active sites to produce reactive oxygen species (ROS) with high toxicity, which have strong oxidizing properties and are a powerful "attack force" against the antioxidant defense mechanisms in tumor cells, and are therefore widely used for targeted tumor therapy. The POD / GSH-Px / CAT-like nanocatalyst has a unique and ingenious function: in an acidic tumor environment, it can function like a peroxidase (POD). The acidic environment of cancer cells provides suitable reaction conditions for this nanocatalyst, allowing it to utilize the hydrogen peroxide and other substances present in the tumor microenvironment to catalyze the generation of products with killing properties. At the same time, the nanocatalyst can also function like glutathione peroxidase (GSH-Px) and catalase (CAT) to protect normal cells. Through this dual function of killing cancer cells and protecting normal cells, the nanocatalyst greatly enhances the overall effectiveness of tumor therapy, making it more precise and efficient, reducing side effects on normal tissues, and having a broad application prospect in the field of tumor therapy.

Dissolve 485 mg of bismuth nitrate pentahydrate (Bi(NO3)3·5H2O) in water, sonicate to dissolve, then add 0.1 g of polyvinylpyrrolidone (molecular weight approximately 10,000), and magnetically stir at 500 rpm for 10 min to form solution A; weigh 404 mg of ferric nitrate nonahydrate (Fe(NO3)3·9H2O) and dissolve in water to form solution B.

[0103] Steps S2-S4 are the same as in Example 1. BiFeO is obtained. x .

[0104] Add 10 μL of 1M H2O2, 10 μL of methylene blue (MB) solution, and 100 μL of BiFeO from Comparative Example 3 to a 1.5 mL centrifuge tube. x An aqueous dispersion (Fe: 0.25 mg / mL) and 880 μL of deionized water were mixed. After mixing, the absorbance at 664 nm was measured using UV-Vis absorption spectroscopy at different time points of 0, 5, 10, and 20 min. The results are shown in the figure. Figure 13It can be observed that within 20 minutes, the difference in absorbance value of BiFeOx in Comparative Example 3 at a wavelength of 664 nm is smaller than that in Example 1, and less ·OH is generated. The POD-like enzyme activity of BiFeOx in Comparative Example 3 is not as good as that in Example 1.
