Abstract: | Most molecular imaging technologies require exogenous probes and may have some influence on the intracellular dynamics of
target molecules. In contrast, Raman scattering light measurement can identify biomolecules in their innate state without
application of staining methods. Our aim was to analyze intracellular dynamics of topoisomerase I inhibitor, CPT-11, by using
slit-scanning confocal Raman microscopy, which can take Raman images with high temporal and spatial resolution. We could acquire
images of the intracellular distribution of CPT-11 and its metabolite SN-38 within several minutes without use of any exogenous
tags. Change of subcellular drug localization after treatment could be assessed by Raman imaging. We also showed intracellular
conversion from CPT-11 to SN-38 using Raman spectra. The study shows the feasibility of using slit-scanning confocal Raman
microscopy for the non-labeling evaluation of the intracellular dynamics of CPT-11 with high temporal and spatial resolution.
We conclude that Raman spectromicroscopic imaging is useful for pharmacokinetic studies of anticancer drugs in living cells.
