Spectral polarization imaging of human prostate cancer tissue using a near-infrared receptor-targeted contrast agent.

چکیده
The Cypate-Bombesin Peptide Analogue Conjugate (Cybesin) was used as a prostate tumor receptor-targeted contrast agent. The absorption and fluorescence spectra of Cybesin were measured and shown to exist in the NIR tissue "optical window". The spectral polarization imaging of Cybesin-stained prostate cancerous and normal tissues shows that prostate cancerous tissue takes-up more Cybesin than that of prostate normal tissue, making Cybesin a potential marker of prostate cancer.

Time-resolved fluorescence polarization dynamics and optical imaging of Cytate: a prostate cancer receptor-targeted contrast agent.
Cypate-octreote peptide analogue conjugate (Cytate) was investigated as a prostate cancer receptor-targeted contrast agent. The absorption and fluorescence spectra of Cytate were ranged in the near-infrared "tissue optical window." Time-resolved investigation of polarization-dependent fluorescence emitted from Cytate in solution as well as in cancerous and normal prostate tissues was conducted....
متن کاملStudy of rotational dynamics of receptor-targeted contrast agents in cancerous and normal prostate tissues using time-resolved picosecond emission spectroscopy.
We studied the time-resolved polarization-dependent fluorescence spectroscopy of receptor-targeted contrast agents (Cybesin and Cytate) bound with prostate cancer cells in prostate tissue. An analytical model dealing with highly viscous tissue media was developed and used to investigate the rotation times and fluorescence anisotropies of the receptor-targeted contrast agents in prostate tissue....

The objective of this research was to improve 3-D imaging system by near-infrared light emission in breast tissue to achieve a more accurate diagnosis of tumor. The results of repeated experiments in this research have shown that with this imaging system, a more accurate diagnosis of abnormal area depends on the location of the sources and detectors. Therefore, an optimal location model has bee...
متن کاملDevelopment of targeted near-infrared imaging agents for prostate cancer.
Prostate cancer is the most common noncutaneous malignancy affecting men in North America. Radical prostatectomy remains a definitive treatment for prostate cancer. However, prostate surgeries are still performed "blindly" with the extent of tumor infiltration past the margins of the surgery only being determined postoperatively. An imaging modality that can be used during surgery is needed to ...
