Near-Infrared Fluorescent Macromolecular Reporters for Real-Time Imaging and Urinalysis of Cancer Immunotherapy

Abstract

Real-time imaging of immunoactivation is imperative for cancer immunotherapy and drug discovery; however, most existing imaging agents possess “always-on” signals and thus have poor signal correlation with immune responses. Herein, renal-clearable near-infrared (NIR) fluorescent macromolecular reporters are synthesized to specifically detect an immunoactivation-related biomarker (granzyme B) for real-time evaluation of cancer immunotherapy. Composed of a peptide-caged NIR signaling moiety linked with a hydrophilic poly(ethylene glycol) (PEG) passivation chain, the reporters not only specifically activate their fluorescence by granzyme B but also passively target the tumor of living mice after systemic administration. Such granzyme B induced in vivo signals of the reporters are validated to correlate well with the populations of cytotoxic T lymphocytes (CD8 + ) and T helper (CD4 + ) cells detected in tumor tissues. By virtue of their ideal renal clearance efficiency (60% injected doses at 24 h postinjection), the reporters can be used for optical urinalysis of immunoactivation simply by detecting the status of excreted reporters. This study thus proposes a molecular optical imaging approach for noninvasive evaluation of cancer immunotherapeutic efficacy in living animals.

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
