Theranostic Agents

Conjugated polymer nanoparticles (CPNs) have emerged as advanced polymeric nanoplatforms in biomedical applications by virtue of extraordinary properties including high fluorescence brightness, large absorption coefficients of one and two-photons, and excellent photostability and colloidal stability in water and physiological medium. In addition, low cytotoxicity, easy functionalization, and the ability to modify CPN photochemical properties by the incorporation of dopants, convert them into excellent theranostic agents with multifunctionality for imaging and treatment. In this work, CPNs were designed and synthesized by incorporating a metal oxide magnetic core (Fe3O4 and NiFe2O4 nanoparticles, 5 nm) into their matrix during the nanoprecipitation method. This modification allowed the in vivo monitoring of nanoparticles in animal models using magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) and intravital fluorescence, techniques widely used for intracranial tumors evaluation. The modified CPNs were assessed in vivo in glioblastoma (GBM) bearing mice, both heterotopic and orthotopic developed models. Biodistribution studies were performed with MRI acquisitions and fluorescence images up to 24 h after the i.v. nanoparticles administration. The resulting IONP-doped CPNs were biocompatible in GBM tumor cells in vitro with an excellent cell incorporation depending on nanoparticle concentration exposure. IONP-doped CPNs were detected in tumor and excretory organs of the heterotopic GBM model after i.v. and i.t. injection. However, in the orthotopic GBM model, the size of the nanoparticles is probably hindering a higher effect on intratumorally T2-weighted images (T2WI) signals and T2 values. The photodynamic therapy (PDT)—cytotoxicity of CPNs was not either affected by the IONPs incorporation into the nanoparticles.

Glioblastoma is one of the most aggressive types of cancer with median survival of only 15 months. Successful therapy is hampered by the existence of treatment resistant populations of stem-like tumour initiating cells (TICs) and poor blood-brain barrier drug penetration. Therapies capable of effectively targeting the TIC population are in high demand. Here, we synthesize spherical diketopyrrolopyrrole (DPP)-based conjugated polymer nanoparticles (CPNs) with an average diameter of 109 nm. The CPN were designed to include fluorescein-conjugated hyaluronic acid (HA), a ligand for the CD44 receptor present on one population of TICs. We demonstrate blood-brain barrier permeability of this system and concentration and cell cycle phase-dependent selective uptake of HA-CPNs in CD44 positive GBM-patient derived cultures. Interestingly, we found that uptake alone decreases stemness, invasive properties and proliferation of the CD44-TIC population in zebrafish PDX models in vivo. This study is the first to show surface moiety-driven selectivity of conjugated polymer nanoparticles in targeting TIC populations in brain cancer.
