Objective: To construct FITC-NGR-Gd targeted contrast agents and observe its targeting efficiency to HEPG2 cells in vitro.
Procedures: To use amide linkage to chemically synthesize the stable connector of FITC-NGR-Gd. To establish HEPG2
experimental group and HT-29 control group for cell fluorescence assay and observe the targeting efficiency of contrast agent
to HEPG2 in vitro. To establish HEPG2 experimental group and HT-29 control group for cell in vitro MRI test, change the
gadolinium concentration and observe the targeting efficiency of contrast agent to HEPG2 in vitro by measuring changes in
T1 values. Results: FITC-NGR-Gd has a higher T1 relaxivity; immunofluorescence assay shows that in the cell test, HEPG2
experimental group has more CY3 targeted red fluorescence on the surface of cell membrane and the HT-29 control group
has no marked red fluorescent substance on the cell membrane; FITC-NGR-Gd cell fluorescence assay shows that HEPG2
experimental group has more green FITC targeted fluorescence on the surface of cell membrane and HT-29 control group has
no marked green fluorescent substance on the cell membrane. In vitro the cell MRI test shows T1 values of HEPG2 experimental
group are significantly higher than that of HT-29 control group, P <0.05. There is statistically significant difference between two
groups. With the increasing concentrations of gadolinium, T1 values of experimental groups increase progressively and the
intensity enhances.
Conclusion: FITC-NGR-Gd can take HEPG2 cells as target in vitro and realize targeted fluorescence imaging and MRI imaging.
