Abstract:
Objective:To construct fused cancer cell/neutrophil membrane-coated polydopamine nanoparticles chelated with manganese ions (Ⅱ) (PMNP@FMs) and explore the potential for targeted pancreatic cancer fluorescence imaging and MRI.Methods:Cancer cell membranes fused with neutrophil membranes were encapsulated on the surface of polydopamine nanoparticles chelated with manganese ions (Ⅱ) (PMNPs) to prepare PMNP@FMs. The morphology, structure, and MRI performance of the product were characterized. The cytotoxicity of PMNP@FMs towards human pancreatic cancer cells (PANC-1) and normal human pancreatic ductal epithelial cells (hTERT-HPNE) was evaluated using cell counting kit (CCK)-8, and in vivo toxicity was assessed in healthy mice. PANC-1 pancreatic cancer xenograft nude mouse models were established for in vivo fluorescence imaging and MRI. Data were analyzed using the independent-sample t test, repeated measures analysis of variance and the least significance difference method. Results:PMNP@FMs exhibited a core-shell structure with a diameter of (112.81±8.64) nm, negative surface charge, and good dispersibility. The T 1 relaxivity of PMNPs was 18.81±0.22, which was 4.1 times higher than that of gadopentetate dimeglumine (Gd-DTPA) (4.55±0.24; t=75.54, P<0.001). Co-culture of PMNPs and PMNP@FMs with hTERT-HPNE and PANC-1 cells for 24 h resulted in cell viability above 90% within the concentration range of 0-500 μg/ml. PMNP@FMs did not affect mouse survival and showed no apparent organ damage. In vivo fluorescence imaging and MRI revealed that PMNP@FMs accumulated highly in tumors and reached the peak 24 h post intravenous administration (relative MR signal: 1.35±0.01, fluorescence intensity: (1.20±0.25)×10 10), surpassing the peak observed in the control group (1.22±0.01, (3.87±0.50)×10 9;F values: 11.03-188.01, t values: 18.20, 5.64, all P<0.05), with hepatic metabolism being the primary route of clearance. Conclusion:PMNP@FMs demonstrate a potential for targeted pancreatic cancer fluorescence imaging and MRI, offering promising prospect for precise diagnosis of early-stage pancreatic cancer.
