This study evaluated the tumor targeting and therapeutic efficacy of a novel theranostic agent (131)I-labeled immuno-gold-nanoparticle ((131)I-C225-AuNPs-PEG) for high epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR)-expressed A549 human lung cancer. Confocal microscopy demonstrated the specific uptake of C225-AuNPs-PEG in A549 cells. (131)I-C225-AuNPs-PEG induced a significant reduction in cell viability, which was not observed when incubated with AuNPs-PEG and C225-AuNPs-PEG. MicroSPECT/CT imaging of tumor-bearing mice after intravenous injection of (123)I-C225-AuNPs-PEG revealed significant radioactivity retention in tumor suggested that (131)I-labeled C225-conjugated radioimmuno-gold-nanoparticles may provide a new approach of targeted imaging and therapy towards high EGFR-expressed cancers.
本研究评估了一种新型治疗诊断试剂(131)I 标记免疫金纳米颗粒((131)I-C225-AuNPs-PEG)对高表皮生长因子受体(EGFR)表达的 A549 人肺癌的肿瘤靶向和治疗效果。共聚焦显微镜显示 C225-AuNPs-PEG 特异性摄取 A549 细胞。(131)I-C225-AuNPs-PEG 导致细胞活力显著降低,而与 AuNPs-PEG 和 C225-AuNPs-PEG 孵育时则未观察到这种情况。荷瘤小鼠静脉注射(123)I-C225-AuNPs-PEG 后进行 MicroSPECT/CT 成像,显示肿瘤中存在显著的放射性滞留,表明(131)I 标记的 C225 结合放射性免疫金纳米颗粒可能为高 EGFR 表达癌症的靶向成像和治疗提供新方法。
