英文摘要Multi-modality imaging based on multifunctional nanoparticles holds great promise to fundamentally augment the capability of biomedical imaging, for both the diagnosis and therapy of tumor. Herein, we developed a green and facile method to prepare PEGylated, reduced nano-graphene oxide (rNGO-PEG) from covalently PEGylated nano-graphene oxide (NGO-PEG). The rNGO-PEG was further loaded with indocyanine green (ICG) and was shown to simultaneously offer excellent fluorescence imaging capability and greatly enhanced optical absorption for photoacoustic imaging. In vitro laser confocal fluorescence microscopy study showed that the ICG loaded rNGO-PEG (rNGO-PEG/ICG) can be effectively uptaken by Hela cells into the cytoplasm area. Moreover, in vivo imaging experiments demonstrated that, compared with free ICG, upon intravenous injection, rNGO-PEG/ICG was able to provide greatly enhanced fluorescence and photoacoustic imaging contrasts of the tumor region. Finally, we found that the signals of rNGO-PEG/ICG in the tumor region and mouse body could sustain up to 6 hours post injection; while after one day, no obvious accumulation of rNGO-PEG/ICG was observed from all the major organs (liver, spleen, kidney etc.), except the tumors, excised from the experimented mice, suggesting that the rNGO-PEG/ICG had a life time highly suitable for biomedical imaging. Overall, the synthesized rNGO-PEG/ICG had an excellent passive targeting capability for in vivo tumor imaging, presumably due to the enhanced permeability and retention (EPR) effect. In addition, the demonstrated low toxicity, excellent life time, and high fluorescence/photoacoustic dual-contrasts of the synthesized rNGO-PEG/ICG make it a promising candidate for further biomedical imaging translational studies for the early detection, diagnosis, and image-guided therapy of tumor.
