Abstract
Description
A near-infrared fluorescent probe and its preparation method and application Technical Field
[0001] The present invention relates to the field of organic fluorescent probe molecules, and in particular to a near-infrared fluorescent probe and a preparation method and application thereof. Background Art
[0002] Cancer poses a serious threat to human life and health. With the deepening of the aging population and changes in people's lifestyles, the challenges posed by cancer are becoming more severe. Clinically, the main treatments for cancer include surgical resection, chemotherapy, radiotherapy, etc. Among them, surgical resection is currently the preferred option for treating solid tumors. Accurate resection of tumors can effectively improve patient prognosis and prolong patient survival. In order to achieve accurate identification of tumors and surgical navigation, technologies including computed tomography (CT), magnetic resonance imaging (MRI), positron emission tomography (PET) and ultrasound (US) have been used for imaging and diagnosis of cancer tissues. However, due to inherent limitations such as low spatial resolution or sensitivity, their ability to accurately identify the boundaries of diseased tissues is affected. Optical molecular imaging surgical navigation technology has the characteristics of real-time, non-invasive and high resolution, providing a new imaging-assisted means for precise tumor surgery. Near-infrared fluorescence imaging diagnosis has advantages in tumor diagnosis (early, middle and late), intraoperative navigation, prognosis and recurrence monitoring diagnosis. This diagnostic method mainly uses near-infrared fluorescent probes (650-1000nm) for specific detection. It can provide high-resolution tissue and organ images, has the advantages of low biological toxicity and low autofluorescence, and is conducive to minimizing background interference.
[0003] Indocyanine green (ICG) is an FDA-approved near-infrared fluorescent dye that readily binds to plasma proteins after intravenous injection, is metabolized by the liver into bile, and can be retained in tumor tissue via the EPR effect. However, ICG has poor specificity, making it difficult to distinguish tumor tissue from peritumoral inflammatory tissue and benign nodules, which can easily lead to false-positive results. Near-infrared fluorescent probes with specific targeting and renal excretion can effectively avoid false-positive results and significantly improve the tumor-to-background ratio, allowing surgeons to more accurately identify tumor boundaries during surgery, completely remove residual tumor lesions, and maximize patient survival and improve quality of life.
[0004] Cellular mesenchymal-epithelial transition factor (c-MET) is a tyrosine kinase receptor, and hepatocyte growth factor (HGF) is the sole ligand for c-MET. It is a paracrine signaling molecule produced and secreted by mesenchymal cells during development. Under normal physiological conditions, HGF / c-MET mediates embryonic development, cell proliferation, tissue repair, and neuromuscular formation. Many targets involved in or implicated in the c-MET signaling pathway are crucial for the development of various cancers. Abnormal activation of these targets can contribute to the development of various cancers, thus highlighting the crucial role of c-MET in the pathogenesis of cancer. Numerous studies have demonstrated that c-MET targets are susceptible to overactivation, which can potentially transform normal cells into cancer cells and further promote subsequent events such as invasion, metastasis, and spread.
[0005] Crizotinib is an anti-tumor drug and tyrosine kinase inhibitor whose primary target is c-MET. It is used to treat patients with locally advanced or metastatic non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) that is positive for anaplastic lymphoma kinase (ALK) as determined by a CFDA-approved test. Crizotinib specifically targets tumor tissue, activating pathways that further lead to tumor cell apoptosis, thus playing a therapeutic role. In the development of tumor-specific fluorescent probes, anti-tumor drugs with tumor-specific killing effects have considerable research value and can be used in the development of specifically targeted fluorescent probes, further expanding the application value of drugs for surgical navigation and tumor resection.
[0006] Patent publication number CN116200188A discloses a near-infrared zone II indocyanine green nanoparticle-specific tumor imaging fluorescent probe, its preparation method and application. It uses hexadecyltrimethylammonium bromide as a template and uses a one-pot co-condensation method to synthesize monodisperse thiol-functionalized nanoparticles. Anti-PD-L1 antibodies are then coupled to the obtained nanoparticles through a polyethylene glycol linker. After dispersion, an antibody-polyethylene glycol functionalized nanoparticle solution is obtained. Indocyanine green (ICG) solution is added to the above solution. After dispersion, a near-infrared zone II indocyanine green nanoparticle-specific tumor imaging fluorescent probe is formed. The thiol-functionalized nanoparticles in this fluorescent probe can prevent ICG aggregation and reduce fluorescence quenching, but the problem is that false positives are easily generated.

[0070] Test Example 1 Spectral Test
[0071] The NY-cMet-01 to 06 series probes were prepared into approximately 1 nmol aqueous solutions. The absorption spectra of each probe in the range of 500-900 nm were first detected using an ultraviolet spectrophotometer (HITACHI, 3J1-0015). The results are shown in Figure 1. The maximum absorption of NY-cMet-01, NY-cMet-02, NY-cMet-03, and NY-cMet-05 is approximately 775 nm, and that of NY-cMet-04 and NY-cMet-06 is approximately 1 nmol. The maximum absorption is approximately 790 nm, and the fluorescence emission spectra of each probe in the range of 750-850 nm are detected on a microplate reader (Molecule desevices, D1524R). The results are shown in Figure 2. The maximum emission spectra of NY-cMet-01, NY-cMet-02, NY-cMet-03, and NY-cMet-05 are approximately 800 nm, and the maximum emission spectra of NY-cMet-04 and NY-cMet-06 are approximately 820 nm.
[0072] Test Example 2: In vivo imaging of subcutaneous HepG2 tumor-bearing mouse model (human liver cancer cells)
[0073] In the subcutaneous HepG2 tumor-bearing mouse model, NY-cMet-01-05 series probes (5 nmol / mouse, 100 μL of glucose injection) were administered via the tail vein, with indocyanine green (ICG, 1.0 mg / kg, 100 μL of water for injection) used as a control. Fluorescence imaging was performed using a surgical fluorescence imaging system (Nanjing Nuoyuan Medical Instrument Co., Ltd., 10B) at 0 h (before administration), 6 h, 12 h, 24 h, and 48 h after administration. The results are shown in Figure 3. As can be seen from the figure, in mice bearing subcutaneous HepG2 tumors, NY-cMet-02~05 have stronger tumor fluorescence signals compared to ICG, while NY-cMet-01 has a weaker fluorescence signal at the tumor site; NY-cMet-02 and NY-cMet-03 remain in the liver for up to 48 hours after administration; NY-cMet-04 and NY-cMet-05 not only exhibit good in vivo metabolic properties (renal excretion), but also have good tumor targeting capabilities. 24 hours after administration, only the tumor remains with fluorescence signals, and imaging lasts for more than 48 hours. NY-cMet-02~05 probes have potential for liver cancer tumor imaging and are worthy of further research and development with the goal of applying them to clinical fluorescence-guided tumor resection.
[0074] Test Example 3: In vivo imaging of a colorectal cancer (HCT116) tumor-bearing mouse model
[0075] In a colorectal cancer (HCT116) tumor-bearing mouse model, the probes NY-cMet-02 and NY-cMet-04 (5 nmol / mouse, in 100 μL of glucose injection) were administered via the tail vein. Fluorescence imaging was performed using a surgical fluorescence imaging system (Nanjing Nuoyuan Medical Instrument Co., Ltd., 10B) at 0 h (before administration), 6 h, 12 h, 24 h, and 48 h after administration. The results are shown in Figure 4. As shown in this figure, the probes NY-cMet-02 and NY-cMet-04 also exhibited good tumor targeting ability in colorectal cancer (HCT116) tumor-bearing mice, demonstrating potential clinical application prospects and warranting further research and development for application in clinical surgery.
