Intraoperative Cerenkov luminescence imaging (CLI) can effectively improve the performance of tumor surgery. Nevertheless, the existing approaches are still unsatisfying to the clinical demands of open surgery. This study develops a novel intraoperative in vivo CLI approach to investigate the potential and value of Cerenkov luminescence (CL) image‐guided surgery. A system characterized with high sensitivity (19.61 kBq mL?1 18F‐FDG) and desirable spatial resolution (88.34 μm) is developed. CL image‐guided surgery is performed on colorectal cancer (CRC) models of mice and swine. Tumor surgery is guided by the static CL images, and the resection quality is evaluated quantitatively and contrasted with other imaging modalities exemplified by bioluminescence imaging (BLI). The in vivo results demonstrated the effectiveness of the proposed intraoperative CLI approach for removing primary and metastatic CRC. Safety of performing in vivo CL image‐guided surgery is verified as well through radiation measurements of related staffs. Overall, the developed intraoperative in vivo CLI approach can efficiently improve the cancer treatment. 相似文献

In molecular imaging, positron emission tomography (PET) and optical imaging (OI) are two of the most important and thus most widely used modalities1-3. PET is characterized by its excellent sensitivity and quantification ability while OI is notable for non-radiation, relative low cost, short scanning time, high throughput, and wide availability to basic researchers. However, both modalities have their shortcomings as well. PET suffers from poor spatial resolution and high cost, while OI is mostly limited to preclinical applications because of its limited tissue penetration along with prominent scattering optical signals through the thickness of living tissues.Recently a bridge between PET and OI has emerged with the discovery of Cerenkov Luminescence Imaging (CLI)4-6. CLI is a new imaging modality that harnesses Cerenkov Radiation (CR) to image radionuclides with OI instruments. Russian Nobel laureate Alekseyevich Cerenkov and his colleagues originally discovered CR in 1934. It is a form of electromagnetic radiation emitted when a charged particle travels at a superluminal speed in a dielectric medium7,8. The charged particle, whether positron or electron, perturbs the electromagnetic field of the medium by displacing the electrons in its atoms. After passing of the disruption photons are emitted as the displaced electrons return to the ground state. For instance, one 18F decay was estimated to produce an average of 3 photons in water5. Since its emergence, CLI has been investigated for its use in a variety of preclinical applications including in vivo tumor imaging, reporter gene imaging, radiotracer development, multimodality imaging, among others4,5,9,10,11. The most important reason why CLI has enjoyed much success so far is that this new technology takes advantage of the low cost and wide availability of OI to image radionuclides, which used to be imaged only by more expensive and less available nuclear imaging modalities such as PET.Here, we present the method of using CLI to monitor cancer drug therapy. Our group has recently investigated this new application and validated its feasibility by a proof-of-concept study12. We demonstrated that CLI and PET exhibited excellent correlations across different tumor xenografts and imaging probes. This is consistent with the overarching principle of CR that CLI essentially visualizes the same radionuclides as PET. We selected Bevacizumab (Avastin; Genentech/Roche) as our therapeutic agent because it is a well-known angiogenesis inhibitor13,14. Maturation of this technology in the near future can be envisioned to have a significant impact on preclinical drug development, screening, as well as therapy monitoring of patients receiving treatments. 相似文献

Imaging the location and extent of cancer provides invaluable information before, during, and after surgery. The majority of "image-guided" methods that use, for example, positron emission tomography (PET) involve preoperative imaging and do not provide real-time information during surgery. It is now well established that the inherent optical emissions (Cerenkov radiation) from various β-emitting radionuclides can be visualized by Cerenkov luminescence imaging (CLI). Here we report the full characterization of CLI using the positron-emitting radiotracer 89Zr-DFO-trastuzumab for target-specific, quantitative imaging of HER2/neu-positive tumors in vivo. We also provide the first demonstration of the feasibility of using CLI for true image-guided, intraoperative surgical resection of tumors. Analysis of optical CLIs provided accurate, quantitative information on radiotracer biodistribution and tissue uptake that correlated well with the concordant PET images. CLI, PET, and biodistribution studies revealed target-specific uptake of 89Zr-DFO-trastuzumab in BT-474 (HER2/neu positive) versus MDA-MB-468 (HER2/neu negative) xenografts in the same mice. Competitive inhibition (blocking) studies followed by CLI also confirmed the in vivo immunoreactivity and specificity of 89Zr-DFO-trastuzumab for HER2/neu. Overall, these results strongly support the continued development of CLI as a preclinical and possible clinical tool for use in molecular imaging and surgical procedures for accurately defining tumor margins. 相似文献

Single crystals of KCl doped with Ce3+,Tb3+ were grown using the Bridgeman–Stockbarger technique. Thermoluminescence (TL), optical absorption, photoluminescence (PL), photo‐stimulated luminescence (PSL), and thermal‐stimulated luminescence (TSL) properties were studied after γ‐ray irradiation at room temperature. The glow curve of the γ‐ray‐irradiated crystal exhibits three peaks at 420, 470 and 525 K. F‐Light bleaching (560 nm) leads to a drastic change in the TL glow curve. The optical absorption measurements indicate that F‐ and V‐centres are formed in the crystal during γ‐ray irradiation. It was attempted to incorporate a broad band of cerium activator into the narrow band of terbium in the KCl host without a reduction in the emission intensity. Cerium co‐doped KCl:Tb crystals showed broad band emission due to the d–f transition of cerium and a reduction in the intensity of the emission peak due to 5D3–7Fj (j = 3, 4) transition of terbium, when excited at 330 nm. These results support that energy transfer occurs from cerium to terbium in the KCl host. Co‐doping Ce3+ ions greatly intensified the excitation peak at 339 nm for the emission at 400 nm of Tb3+. The emission due to Tb3+ ions was confirmed by PSL and TSL spectra. Copyright © 2015 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd. 相似文献

Highly efficient red‐emitting phosphors, CaAlSiN3:Eu2+, were successfully prepared by the solid‐state method using calcium cyanide (CaCN2) as the single calcium source. The influences of crystallization temperature, crystallization time, calcination mode and compounds ratio on the photoluminescent properties were investigated. The CaAlSiN3:Eu2+ phosphors were obtained with 1 mol% CaCN2 by a two‐step calcination procedure at 900°C for 2 h and subsequently at 1600°C for 8 h. The CaAlSiN3:Eu2+ phosphors showed the strongest luminescent intensity at 660 nm when excited by 468 nm. With an increase in crystallization time, the maximum wavelength of the emission was shifted from 644 nm to 660 nm. 相似文献

Several authors have reported on high-sensitivity measurement of oxygen-dependent low-level chemiluminescence (CL) from Maillard reactions (MR), i.e. nonenzymatic amino-carbonyl reactions between reducing sugars and amino acids (also referred to as nonenzymatic browning). Here we report for the first time, that light from Maillard reactions can be seen by the human eye and also can be photographed. In parallel with visual perception and photography CL was monitored by means of a CL-detection programme of a liquid scintillation counter (LSC, single photon rate counting). CL emission spectrum was recorded by a monochromator-microchannel plate photomultiplier arrangement. CL intensity from reaction of 6-aminocaproic acid with D-ribose (200 mg each) in 5 mL H2O at pH 11 at 95°C was high enough for visual perception after adaptation to absolute darkness. Reaction in dimethylsulphoxide (DMSO) exhibited strongly enhanced CL (10 mg each in 5 mL were sufficient for visual detection) and could be photographed (15 minutes' exposure, ASA 6400); all characteristics of Maillard specific CL (O2-dependence, no CL from nonreducing sugars, inhibition by sulphur compounds) remained. Visual detection of CL and measurement by LSC were in full concordance. The CL emission spectrum showed two broad peaks at around 500 nm and 695 nm. Fluorescence emission of the brown reaction mixture matched the bluegreen part of the CL emission spectrum. Emission of visible light during Maillard reactions may partly originate from oxygen-dependent generation of excited states and energy transfer to simultaneously formed fluorescent products of the browning reaction. 相似文献

Bilirubin in an alkaline solution exhibits a weak chemiluminescence (CL) under aerobic conditions. This spontaneous CL was markedly enhanced by the addition of various aldehydes. The fluorescent emission spectrum of bilirubin, excited by weak intensity light at 350 nm, coincided with its CL emission spectrum (peak at 670 nm). CL emission from bilirubin was not quenched by active oxygen scavengers. This suggests that triplet oxygen reacts with bilirubin, and forms an oxygenated intermediate (hydroperoxide) as a primary emitter (oxidative scission of tetrapyrrole bonds in bilirubin is not involved in this CL). The Ehrlich reaction (test for monopyrroles) and hydrolsulphite reaction (test for dipyroles) on the CL reaction mixture and unreacted bilirubin showed no differences. When the CL was initiated by singlet oxygen, rather than superoxide anion, monopyrrole, was detected in the reaction products by gel chromatography. The inhibitory effect of a scavenger of singlet oxygen on CL was eliminated in the presence of formaldehyde. Therefore, triplet carbonyl, formed by singlet oxygen through the dioxetane structure in bilirubin, is not an emitter. The reaction mechanism of bilirubin CL and the formation of a hydroperoxide intermediate is discussed in relation to the chemical structure of luciferin molecules from bioluminescent organisms. 相似文献

Spectra of ultraweak chemiluminescence (CL) accompanying auto-oxidation and hydration of cereal products have been measured using single photon counting and cut-off filters. The spectra cover the 380–880 nm spectral range with maxima centred around 600 nm. Analytically pure air-dried carbohydrates like agar, cellulose and nitrocellulose give emission too weak for spectral measurements. The emission from water pure carbohydrates is on average 4–12 times higher and emission spectra are similar to those from cereal products. The effect of free radical scavengers, SOD and O*2 (1Δg)-quenchers on CL spectra indicates a contribution of radical reactions with the participation of excited carbonyls, O2− and excited molecular oxygen dimoles. Moreover, possible mechanisms of chemi-excitation due to a cooperative H-bond formation during the hydration of carbohydrates and/or recombination of trapped radicals and electron-holes are discussed. It is also postulated that the excitation energy transfer to natural sensitizers occuring in cereal products may account for non-specific broad spectra and differences in the intensity of CL. © 1998 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd. 相似文献

Objective
Brown adipose tissue (BAT), a specialized tissue for thermogenesis, plays important roles for metabolism and energy expenditure. Recent studies validated BAT’s presence in human adults, making it an important re-emerging target for various pathologies. During this validation, PET images with 18F-FDG showed significant uptake of 18F-FDG by BAT under certain conditions. Here, we demonstrated that Cerenkov luminescence imaging (CLI) using 18F-FDG could be utilized for in vivo optical imaging of BAT in mice.Methods
Mice were injected with 18F-FDG and imaged 60 minutes later with open filter and 2 minute acquisition. In vivo activation of BAT was performed by norepinephrine and cold treatment under isoflurane or ketamine anesthesia. Spectral unmixing and 3D imaging reconstruction were conducted with multiple-filter CLI images.Results
1) It was feasible to use CLI with 18F-FDG to image interscapular BAT in mice, with the majority of the signal (>85%) at the interscapular site originating from BAT; 2) The method was reliable because excellent correlations between in vivo CLI, ex vivo CLI, and ex vivo radioactivity were observed; 3) CLI could be used for monitoring BAT activation under different conditions; 4) CLI signals from the group under short-term isoflurane anesthesia were significantly higher than that from the group under long-term anesthesia; 5) The CLI spectrum of 18F-FDG with a peak at 640 nm in BAT after spectral unmixing reflected the actual context of BAT; 6) Finally 3D reconstruction images showed excellent correlation between the source of the light signal and the location and physical shape of BAT.Conclusion
CLI with 18F-FDG is a feasible and reliable method for imaging BAT in mice. Compared to PET imaging, CLI is significantly cheaper, faster for 2D planar imaging and easier to use. We believe that this method could be used as an important tool for researchers investigating BAT. 相似文献10.
An orange‐emitting phosphor, Eu2+‐activated LiSr4(BO3)3, was synthesized using the conventional solid‐state reaction. The photoluminescence excitation and emission spectra, and temperature dependence of the luminescence intensity of the phosphor were investigated. The results showed that LiSr4(BO3)3:Eu2+ could be efficiently excited by incident light of 250–450 nm, and emits a strong orange light. With increasing temperature, the emission bands of LiSr4(BO3)3:Eu2+ show an abnormal blue‐shift with broadening bandwidth and decreasing emission intensity.

Dy3+ and Eu3+ activated Ca3Y2Si3O12 phosphors were synthesized by the solid‐state synthesis method. The phosphors were characterized by X‐ray diffraction (XRD), mechanoluminescence (ML), thermoluminescence (TL) and photoluminescence (PL) to determine structure and luminescence. For ML glow curves, only one peak was observed, as only one type of luminescence centre was formed during irradiation. The Ca3Y2Si3O12:Dy3+ TL glow curve showed a single peak at 151.55°C and the Ca3Y2Si3O12:Eu3+ TL glow curve peaked at 323°C with a small peak at 192°C, indicating that two types of traps were activated. The trapping parameters for both the samples were calculated using Chen's peak shape method. Dy3+‐activated Ca3Y2Si3O12 showed emission at 482 and 574 nm when excited by a 351 nm excitation wavelength, whereas the Eu3+‐activated Ca3Y2Si3O12 phosphor PL emission spectra showed emission peaks at 613 nm, 591 nm, 580 nm when excited at 395 nm wavelength. When excited at 466 nm, prominent emission peaks were observed at their respective positions with very slight shifts. Copyright © 2015 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd. 相似文献

In the present work, a series of Bi3+-activated Ca2BO3Cl phosphors was synthesized using the conventional high-temperature solid-state reaction method. The crystal structure of the prepared sample was determined to be monoclinic with space group P21/c. Scanning electron microscopy (SEM) analysis demonstrated the surface morphology with aggregated particles and sizes in the nano range. The presence of vibrational features and their luminescence characteristics were studied using Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy and photoluminescence (PL) techniques, respectively. At the 486 nm excitation wavelength, the PL spectrum revealed a sharp emission centred at 732 nm that was attributed to the 3P1→1S0 transition of Bi3+. The emission spectra exhibited the highest emission intensity at 0.5 mol% Bi3+ ion concentration, beyond this the emission intensity decreased due to the concentration quenching phenomenon attributed to multipolar interaction. The Commission Internationale de l'éclairage coordinates located at (0.7347, 0.2653) confirmed emission in the deep-red region with a colour purity of 99.98%. The obtained outcomes suggested that the reported material may be a promising candidate as a red-emitting phosphor for w-LEDs and plant growth applications. 相似文献

CaSnO3:Bi3+ blue‐emitting phosphor was synthesized using a high‐temperature solid‐state reaction method in air. The crystal structures and luminescence properties were investigated. A broad emission band peaking at ~448 nm upon excitation at 262 and 308 nm was observed in the range 330–680 nm at room temperature due to 3P1 → 1S0 transition of the Bi3+ ion. The chromaticity coordinate was (0.1786, 0.1665). The optimal Bi3+ ion concentration was ~0.6 mol% in CaSnO3:Bi3+ phosphor. The emission spectrum of CaSnO3:Bi3+ phosphor showed a blue‐shift with increasing temperature from 50 to 300 K due to the influence of temperature on the electron transition of the Bi3+ ion. The emission intensity of CaSnO3:Bi3+ phosphor may be increased ~1.45 times by co‐doping Li+ ions as a charge compensator and fluxing agent. The luminescence mechanism is explained by a configurational coordinate diagram of Bi3+ ion in CaSnO3:Bi3+ phosphor. 相似文献

The 3-phosphoglycerate kinase (EC 2.7.2.3) of yeast which contains two tryptophyl and eight tyrosyl residues per molecule, displayed an unusualy fluorescence emission spectrum with a maximum at 308 nm when excited at 280 nm. The emission peak shifted to 329 nm when excited at 295 nm. We could confirm that it was due to the efficient quenching of tryptophyl fluorescence as well as to the incomplete energy transfer from tyrosyl to tryptophyl residues. The average fluorescence quantum yield of this protein was 0.076 (excitation at 280 nm) and that of tryptophyl residues was 0.046 (excitation at 295 nm). As the pH of the solution was lowered, the fluorescence intensity of phosphoglycerate kinase at 329 nm dramatically increased between pH 5 and 4, while the position of the peak remained unchanged. When denatured in 4 M guanidine hydrochloride, the protein showed two emission peaks, one at 343 nm and the other at 303 nm. 相似文献

In this work, we studied the luminescence properties of Tb3+‐doped MgPbAl10O17 green phosphor. To understand the excitation mechanism and corresponding emission of the prepared phosphor, its structural, morphological and photoluminescence properties were investigated. In general, for green emission, Tb3 is used as an activator and the obtained excitation and emission spectra indicated that this phosphor can be effectively excited by a wavelength of 380 nm, and exhibits bright green emission centered at 545 nm corresponding to the f → f transition of trivalent terbium ions. The chromaticity coordinates were (Cx = 0.263, Cy = 0.723). The impact of Tb3+ concentration on the relative emission intensity was investigated, and the best doping concentration was found to be 2 mol%. This study suggests that Tb3+‐doped MgPbAl10O17 phosphor is a strong candidate for a green component in phosphor‐converted white light‐emitting diodes. Copyright © 2015 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd. 相似文献

The kinetics of chemiluminescence (CL) accompanying Fe2+-induced lipid peroxidation (LPO) in liposome suspension has been investigated. A sequence of stages was observed, namely: (1) fast CL flash (FF); (2) latent period (LP); (3) slow CL flash (SF) and (4) stationary chemiluminescence (SL). The first three stages are known to reflect the Fe2+-mediated LPO process. In spite of the fact that at the stage of SL Fe2+ has completely oxidized and MDA has not accumulated, CL intensity was found to increase and after 0.5–1 h reached a value that was several times higher than SF amplitude. The maximal SL level was linearly dependent on the initial Fe2+ concentration and was not dependent on liposome concentration in the suspension. The nature of the processes responsible for CL emission at the stage of SL has been investigated using free radical reaction inhibitors and measurement of CL spectra. The SL spectrum was observed in the red region (λ>590 nm) in contrast to the SF CL spectrum (maximum at 540 nm). SL amplitude was strongly inhibited by sodium azide (40%), superoxide dismutase (SOD) (30%), desferrioxamine and EDTA (30%), whereas mannitol, ethanol, α-tocopherol and butylated hydroxytoluene were ineffective. The data obtained indicate that CL at the stage of SL is not directly related to LPO process, i.e. lipid free radical recombination. The mechanism of stationary CL generation is discussed. 相似文献

The Eu2+‐induced enhancement of defect luminescence of ZnS was studied in this work. While photoluminescence (PL) spectra exhibited 460 nm and 520 nm emissions in both ZnS and ZnS:Eu nanophosphors, different excitation characteristics were shown in their photoluminescence excitation (PLE) spectra. In ZnS nanophosphors, there was no excitation signal in the PLE spectra at the excitation wavelength λex > 337 nm (the bandgap energy 3.68 eV of ZnS); while in ZnS:Eu nanophosphors, two excitation bands appeared that were centered at 365 nm and 410 nm. Compared with ZnS nanophosphors, the 520 nm emission in the PL spectra was relatively enhanced in ZnS:Eu nanophosphors and, furthermore, in ZnS:Eu nanophosphors the 460 nm and 520 nm emissions increased more than 10 times in intensity. The reasons for these differences were analyzed. It is believed that the absorption of Eu2+ intra‐ion transition and subsequent energy transfer to sulfur vacancy, led to the relative enhancement of the 520 nm emission in ZnS:Eu nanophosphors. In addition, more importantly, Eu2+ acceptor‐bound excitons are formed in ZnS:Eu nanophosphors and their excited levels serve as the intermediate state of electronic relaxation, which decreases non‐radiative electronic relaxation and thus increases the intensity of the 460 nm and 520 nm emission dramatically. In summary, the results in this work indicate a new mechanism for the enhancement of defect luminescence of ZnS in Eu2+‐doped ZnS nanophosphors. Copyright © 2016 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd. 相似文献

In this article we report Eu3+ luminescence in novel K3Ca2(SO4)3Cl phosphors prepared by wet chemical methods. The Eu3+ emission was observed at 594 nm and 615 nm, keeping the excitation wavelength constant at 396 nm nearer to light‐emitting diode excitation, Furthermore, phosphors were characterized by X‐ray diffraction for the confirmation of crystallinity. The variation of the photoluminescence intensity with impurity concentration has also been discussed. Thus, prominent emission in the red region makes prepared phosphors more applicable for white light‐emitting diodes. Copyright © 2013 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd. 相似文献

Luminescence emission, polarization, and excitation spectra of polyadenylic acid (poly(A)) have been studied in room-temperature aqueous solution (pH 8). The temperature dependence of the luminescence of poly(A) at two different excitation wavelengths in the range 10-70 degrees C has also been studied and compared with that of adenosine 5'-monophosphate (AMP). It has been found that the luminescence excitation spectrum and the polarization curve of poly(A) solution reveal a low-intensity electronic transition at about 320 nm which is red-shifted by approximately 0.9 eV from the maximum of the absorption spectrum at 260 nm. A model of two luminescent stacked forms is suggested. The difference in the ground state levels of these two stacked forms obtained from the temperature dependencies of the emissions is insignificant ( approximately 1 kcal/mol). This means a lowering of the excited state of the stacked form with the 320 nm/420 nm absorption/emission bands by approximately 0.9 eV as compared to the main form with the 260 nm/400 nm absorption/emission bands. The low-lying excited states suggest the stronger electronic coupling of the bases in a certain stacked form. It is proposed that such clusters of the stacked bases could provide the wire-like conductivity in the short segments of DNA. 相似文献

With the use of mechanical phosphoroscope the "universal" delayed emission has been found in aerobic solutions of different sensitizers in CCl4. The spectrum of this emission has the main maximum at 703 nm. The luminescence intensity is proportional to the square of the intensity of the exciting light. Removal of oxygen or addition of 10% of acetone led to disappearance of the luminescence. At equal intensities of singlet oxygen generation relative intensities of the 1272 and 703 nm bands differed by several orders of magnitude in solutions of different sensitizers. The energy migration from the molecules responsible for the luminescence to bacteriopheophytin and phtalocyanine has been observed. The luminescence is interpreted as dimol emission of solvated singlet molecular oxygen activated by sensitizer molecules. 相似文献
