Semiconducting Polymer Nanoprobe for In Vivo Imaging of Reactive Oxygen and Nitrogen Species

Abstract: Semiconducting polymer nanoparticles are utilized as a free-radical inert and light-harvesting nanoplatform for in vivo molecular imaging of reactive oxygen and nitrogen species (RONS). With its RONS-sensitive fluorescence, good biodistribution and passive targeting ability to leaky inflammatory vasculature, this nanoprobe permits detection of RONS in the microenvironment of spontaneous bacterial infection following systemic administration. Keywords semiconducting polymers; RONS; nanoparticles; biosensors; ima… Show more

“…Interestingly, this group is also well-known for developing BRET-based self-illuminating QDs [90], and SLNM was one of the first proof-of-concept applications of NIR-emitting QDs [91]. Rao and coworkers have also developed CRET/FRET-based Pdot probes for oxidative and nitrosative stress [65,66 ], including measurement of peroxide and peroxynitrite in the liver of a mouse model with overdoses of acetaminophen and isoniazid ( Figure 4b) [66 ].…”

“…For example, doping Pdots with NIR fluorophores [63][64][65]66 ], QDs [67], or Eu(III) complexes [68 ] yields more spectrally narrow, redshifted emission, and, in the case of Eu(III), long-lived excited states to permit time-gated measurements with improved signal-to-background ratios. Alternatively, boron-dipyrromethene (BODIPY) fluorophores [53 ,54] and Eu(III) complexes [69] can be incorporated directly into the constituent polymer chains (Figure 4a).…”

“…Recently, Pu et al developed a RONS nanosensor based on RONS-activated FRET between a semiconducting polymer and a NIR dye. Although it was not reversible, the nanosensor could image inflammatory microenvironments in vivo 17 . Another implantable nanosensor paired an oxygen-sensitive dye with an oxygen-consuming enzyme and demonstrated reversible in vivo detection of the small-molecule histamine (Figure 2) as a platform proof-of concept for nonsaccharides 18 .…”

“…Other semiconductor fluorophores like non-crystalline semiconducting polymer-dots (Pdots) 17 and upconverting nanocrystals have interesting optical properties for nanosensors 66 . Both fluorophores have been incorporated into ratiometric nanosensors 67 , and neither has raised acute toxicity concerns 94b, c, 95 although their biocompatibilities are not fully characterized 67b, 68 .…”

“…Here, we used RAW264.7, a murine macrophage cell line, as the model system. To mimic the inflammatory conditions, RAW264.7 cells were successively treated with lipopolysaccharide (LPS) and phorbol 12-myristate 13-acetate (PMA) to activate the generation of ROS such as O 2 À , OH, ONOO À , and ClO À [22,23]. As determined by laser-scanning upconversion luminescence microscopy (LSUCLM), control RAW264.7 cells incubated with HAR-UCNPs showed only a weak green UCL emission at 515e560 nm (Fig.…”
