Denne protokol giver en tilgang til den kemiske modifikation af VNPs og deres anvendelse til in vivo tumorafbildning. De dyr fluorescensimagografi, fluorescens kvantificering, og immunhistokemi teknikker præsenteres her, er anvendelige til at studere biodistribution og evaluering tumor homing. Disse teknikker giver værdifulde oplysninger om adgang for nanopartikler til tumoren via EPR effekt. Ved at kombinere resultaterne fra de forskellige analysemetoder, får vi en stærk fremgangsmåde til evaluer...

viral nanoparticles for in vivo tumor imaging

Anvendelsen af ​​nanomaterialer har potentialet til at revolutionere materialevidenskab og medicin. I øjeblikket er en række forskellige nanopartikler, som undersøges for anvendelse i billeddannelse og terapi. Virale nanopartikler (VNPs) stammer fra planter kan betragtes som selv-samlet bionanomaterials med veldefinerede størrelser og former. Plantevira, der undersøges i Steinmetz lab omfatter ikosaedriske partikler dannet ved Cowpea-mosaikvirus (CPMV) og Brome mosaikvirus (BMV), der begge er 30 nm i diameter. Vi udvikler også stavformede og filamentøse strukturer afledt af følgende plantevira: tobakmosaikvirus (TMV), som danner stive stænger med dimensionerne 300 nm med 18 nm, og Potato Virus X (PVX), der danner filamentøse partikler 515 nm i længde og 13 nm i bredden (læseren henvises til ref. 1 og 2 for yderligere information om VNPs). i planta, er usædvanligt stabilt, og biokompatible. Også VNPs er &quot;programmerbare&quot; enheder, som specifikt kan manipuleret ved hjælp af genetisk modificering eller kemiske bioconjugation metoder 3. Strukturen af VNPs er kendt for atomar opløsning, og modifikationer kan udføres med rumlig præcision på det atomare niveau 4, en grad af kontrol, som ikke kan opnås ved anvendelse af syntetiske nanomaterialer med aktuelle state-of-the-art teknologi. I denne artikel beskriver vi udbredelsen af CPMV, PVX, TMV, og BMV i Vigna ungiuculata og Nicotiana benthamiana planter. Udvinding og oprensning protokoller for hver VNP er angivet. Fremgangsmåder til karakterisering af oprenset og kemisk-mærkede VNPs beskrives. I denne undersøgelse fokuserer vi på chemical mærkning af VNPs med fluoroforer (fx Alexa Fluor 647) og polyethylenglycol (PEG). Farvestofferne lette sporing og detektion af VNPs 5-10, og PEG reducerer immunogeniciteten af de proteinholdige nanopartikler og samtidig øge deres farmakokinetik 8,11. Vi demonstrere tumor homing af pegyleret VNPs bruge en mus xenograft tumor model. En kombination af fluorescensimagografi af væv ex vivo under anvendelse Maestro Imaging System, fluorescens kvantificering i homogeniserede væv, og konfokal mikroskopi anvendes til at studere biofordeling. VNPs slettes via det retikuloendoteliale system (RES) tumor homing opnås passivt via den forbedrede permeabilitet og tilbageholdelse (EPR) effekt 12. Det VNP nanoteknologi er en kraftfuld plug-and-play teknologi til billede og behandle lokaliteter af sygdom in vivo. Vi videreudvikler VNPs at bære lægemiddel laster og klinisk relevante imaging-dele, samt vævsspecifikke ligander tilmålrette molekylære receptorer overudtrykt i kræft og hjerte-karsygdomme.
