Photoacoustic imaging (also called optoacoustic or thermoacoustic imaging) can image vascularity clearly with simultaneous high contrast and high spatial resolution, and has the potential to be an application for tumor diagnosis and treatment monitoring. In a unique photoacoustic system, a single pulse laser beam was used as the light source for both cancer treatment and for concurrently generating ultrasound signals for photoacoustic imaging. The photoacoustic system was used to detect early tumor on the rat back, and the vascular structure around the tumor could be imaged clearly with optimal contrast. This system was also used to monitoring damage of the vascular structures before, during and after photodynamic therapy of tumor. This work demonstrates that photoacoustic imaging can potentially be used to guide photodynamic therapy and other phototherapies using vascular changes during treatment. Prospective application of photoacoustic imaging is to characterize and monitor the accumulation of gold nanoshells in vivo to guide nanoshell-based thermal tumor therapy.

AbstractAs a basic structure of most polypyridinal metal complexes, [Ru(bpy)3]2+, has the advantages of simple structure, facile synthesis and high yield, which has great potential for scientific research and application. However, sonodynamic therapy (SDT) performance of [Ru(bpy)3]2+ has not been investigated so far. SDT can overcome the tissue-penetration and phototoxicity problems compared to photodynamic therapy. Here, we report that [Ru(bpy)3]2+ is a highly potent sonosensitizer and sonocatalyst for sonotherapy in vitro and in vivo. [Ru(bpy)3]2+ can produce singlet oxygen (1O2) and sono-oxidize endogenous 1,4-dihydronicotinamide adenine dinucleotide (NADH) under ultrasound (US) stimulation in cancer cells. Furthermore, [Ru(bpy)3]2+ enables effective destruction of mice tumors, and the therapeutic effect can reach deep tissues over 10 cm under US irradiation. This work paves a way for polypyridinal metal complexes to be applied to the noninvasive precise sonotherapy of cancer.
