摘要
Tumor drainage lymph node identification and dissection are crucial for the oncological surgery to prevent/delay the recurrence. However, commercial imaging reagents distinguish the lymph nodes by staining them dark, which would be seriously interfered by blood and surrounding tissues. In this study, we reported the Cr3+/Pr3+doped zinc gallogermanate persistent luminescent nanoparticles (PLNPs) for fast tumor drainage lymph node imaging with high contrast. PLNPs were synthesized by citrate sol-gel method and dispersed in Tween 80 for in vivo applications. PLNPs were well dispersed in water with hydrodynamic radii of 5 nm and emitted strong persistent luminescence at 696 nm upon the irradiation of UV light. The advantage of afterglow imaging over fluorescent imaging of PLNPs was first established after subcutaneous injection to mice with much higher contrast and less interference of autofluorescence. PLNPs quickly migrated to sentinel lymph nodes after the interdermal injection to extremity of mice. The tumor drainage lymph node imaging was achieved within 5 min upon the intratumoral injection to H460 tumor bearing mice and the signal to noise ratio was 462. Due to the lack of targeting moieties, the intravenous injected PLNPs mainly accumulated in liver. There were no statistical changes in serum biochemistry and abnormal histopathological characteristic, indicating the low toxicity of PLNPs. These findings highlighted the great potential of PLNPs as high-performance imaging reagent for lymph node identification.
