Biodistribution of TPPOH Treatments

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
To determine the biodistribution of TPPOH treatments, free TPPOH and TPPOH-X SNPs were labeled with Cyanine 5.5 (Lumiprobe, Hannover, Germany) to allow tracking because the TPPOH emission spectrum overlaps with that of blood. HT-29 tumor-bearing mice, established as described above, were randomly divided into two groups (n = 3) and intravenously injected with 1/100e LD50 for both group: Cy5.5-free TPPOH (3.26 mg/kg) and Cy5.5-TPPOH-X SNPs (1.16 mg/kg TPPOH and 334 mg/kg SNPs). Then 24 h post-injection, the biodistribution was determined using IVIS Lumina quantitative fluorescence imaging system (PerkinElmer, Villepinte, France). Subsequently, the mice were sacrificed and ex vivo biodistribution images of the tumors and major organs were immediately taken. Relative signal intensity in tumors and organs was calculated, using Living Image software (PerkinElmer), as radiant efficiency ([photons/s/cm2/sr]/[μW/cm2]) per pixel of the region of interest (ROI), which was drawn around the respective organ.

[Figure (not displayed)]

N-(Cyanine5.5)-4′-(α-D-mannopyranosyl)-3′-methyl-[1,1′biphenyl]-3-carboxamide chloride (10) 23 was made following the coupling procedure for 7, utilizing 4′-(α-D-mannopyranosyloxy)-3′-methyl-[1,1′biphenyl]-3-carboxylic acid (loc. cit.) (12.4 mg, 0.032 mmol) and HATU (12.2 mg, 0.032 mmol) in dry DMF (2 mL), followed by commercially available Cyanine5.5amine (Lumiprobe, #7000) (20 mg, 0.027 mmol) and DIPEA (28 μL, 0.16 mmol), to give the product in 69% yield.

Meningioma Tumor Imaging and Targeting

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
The growth of meningioma (CH157-MN-FLuc) tumors in xenografted NSG mice was monitored by measuring bioluminescent signal (FLuc) using an IVIS Lumina Series III (PerkinElmer, Waltham, MA, USA) every two days post cells injection. To monitor meningioma targeting, the anti-SSTR2 mAb or ADC was labeled with Cyanine 5.5 (Lumiprobe, Hunt Valley, MD, USA) according to the manufacturer protocol. The Cy5.5-labeled mAb or ADC was intravenously (i.v.) injected into mice via tail vein. At 24 h post injection, the xenograft mice were imaged under IVIS with a wavelength of 660/710 nm (excitation/emission) and an exposure time of 10 s to analyze the meningioma targeting and biodistribution in vivo. The important organs, including brain, heart, lung, kidney, and spleen, were also extracted to collect ex vivo images to check the possible off-target binding.

Antibody and Lectin Microarray Preparation

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
We purchased antibodies and proteins from various sources (Table S1), and Dr. Mehta provided the recombinant Aleuria aurantia lectin (AAL)24 (link). We obtained as kind gifts the Dupan-2 antibody from Dr. Michael Hollingsworth (Omaha, NE, USA), the DNA for RSL from Dr. Anne Imberty (Grenoble, France), and the DNA for CCL2 and CGL2 from Dr. Markus Kuenzler and Dr. Markus Aebi (Zurich, Switzerland).
We purified the antibodies to be printed onto microarray slides by dialysis (Slide-A-Lyzer, Pierce Biotechnology) to phosphate buffered saline (PBS) and by ultra-centrifugation. To link biotin on the detection antibodies and lectins, we used the EZ-Link-sulfo-NHS-LC-Biotin reagent (Pierce Biotechnology) according to the manufacturer’s instructions with modifications25 . We labeled the anti-polyHis antibody (Ab18184, Abcam) with Cyanine5 (Sulpho-Cyanine5 NHS ester, #13320, Lumiprobe) using the same protocol as for biotinylation. We purchased streptavidin with conjugated Cy5 (#SA1011, Invitrogen Life Technologies).

Quantification of Primary Amines on CeO2 NPs

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
The primary amine groups of CeO2@P2 and CeO2@P3 were quantified by spectrofluorometry (Supplementary Information S4). CeO2@P2 and CeO2@P3 were labelled with Cyanine 5 (Lumiprobe, #23320) in PBS buffer adjusted to pH 8 (2 hours at room temperature while stirring continuously). Particles were washed five times with PBS on an exclusion column (30 kDa) to remove the free Cyanine. The same experimental procedure was carried out with the amine-free particle CeO2@P1 as a control, to validate the washing procedure.

About PubCompare

Our mission is to provide scientists with the largest repository of trustworthy protocols and intelligent analytical tools, thereby offering them extensive information to design robust protocols aimed at minimizing the risk of failures.

We believe that the most crucial aspect is to grant scientists access to a wide range of reliable sources and new useful tools that surpass human capabilities.

However, we trust in allowing scientists to determine how to construct their own protocols based on this information, as they are the experts in their field.
