NIR-II fluorescence imaging-guided colorectal cancer surgery targeting CEACAM5 by a nanobody.

ABSTRACT:

Background

Surgery 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.

Methods

We 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), orthot
