NIR-II fluorescence imaging without intended excitation light.

ABSTRACT: Nowadays, second near-infrared window (NIR-II) dyes are almost excited by laser diodes, but none of the white light (400-700 nm) excited NIR-II imaging has been studied because of the lack of suitable optical probes. Herein, a novel blue-shifted NIR-II dye, TPA-TQT, has been selected for use in multi-wavelength white light emitting diode (LED) excited NIR-II imaging. This white LED barely caused photo-quenching of the dyes, especially indocyanine green (ICG), whereas the ICG's brightness decreased by 90% under continuous 808 nm laser irradiation. Compared to single-wavelength LED, multi-wavelength LED showed a lower background and similar signal-to-background ratios. This system provided high image resolution to identify blood vessels (103 μm), lymphatic capillaries (129.8 μm), and to monitor hindlimb ischemia-reperfusion and lymphatic inflammation. Furthermore, white LED excited NIR-II fluorescence imaging-guided surgery (FIGS) was successfully performed in 4T1 tumor-bearing mice. Impressively, the lighting LED-based NIR-II FIGS was found to clearly delineate small lesions of metastatic tumors of about ∼350 μm diameter and further was able to guide surgical removal. Overall, multi-wavelength LED-based NIR-II imaging is a promising imaging strategy for tumor delineation and other biomedical applications.

Project description:BackgroundSurgery is the cornerstone of colorectal cancer (CRC) treatment, yet complete removal of the tumour remains a challenge. The second near-infrared window (NIR-II, 1000-1700 nm) fluorescent molecular imaging is a novel technique, which has broad application prospects in tumour surgical navigation. We aimed to evaluate the ability of CEACAM5-targeted probe for CRC recognition and the value of NIR-II imaging-guided CRC resection.MethodsWe constructed the probe 2D5-IRDye800CW by conjugated anti-CEACAM5 nanobody (2D5) with near-infrared fluorescent dye IRDye800CW. The performance and benefits of 2D5-IRDye800CW at NIR-II were confirmed by imaging experiments in mouse vascular and capillary phantom. Then mouse colorectal cancer subcutaneous tumour model (n = 15), orthotopic model (n = 15), and peritoneal metastasis model (n = 10) were constructed to investigate biodistribution of probe and imaging differences between NIR-I and NIR-II in vivo, and then tumour resection was guided by NIR-II fluorescence. Fresh human colorectal cancer specimens were incubated with 2D5-IRDye800CW to verify its specific targeting ability.Findings2D5-IRDye800CW had an NIR-II fluorescence signal extending to 1600 nm and bound specifically to CEACAM5 with an affinity of 2.29 nM. In vivo imaging, 2D5-IRDye800CW accumulated rapidly in tumour (15 min) and could specifically identify orthotopic colorectal cancer and peritoneal metastases. All tumours were resected under NIR-II fluorescence guidance, even smaller than 2 mm tumours were detected, and NIR-II had a higher tumour-to-background ratio than NIR-I (2.55 ± 0.38, 1.94 ± 0.20, respectively). 2D5-IRDye800CW could precisely identify CEACAM5-positive human colorectal cancer tissue.Interpretation2D5-IRDye800CW combined with NIR-II fluorescence has translational potential as an aid to improve R0 surgery of colorectal cancer.FundingsThis study was supported by Beijing Natural Science Foundation (JQ19027), the National Key Research and Development Program of China (2017YFA0205200), National Natural Science Foundation of China (NSFC) (61971442, 62027901, 81930053, 92059207, 81227901, 82102236), Beijing Natural Science Foundation (L222054), CAS Youth Interdisciplinary Team (JCTD-2021-08), the Strategic Priority Research Program of the Chinese Academy of Sciences (XDA16021200), the Zhuhai High-level Health Personnel Team Project (Zhuhai HLHPTP201703), the Fundamental Research Funds for the Central Universities (JKF-YG-22-B005) and Capital Clinical Characteristic Application Research (Z181100001718178).
