Bi2S3-SiO2 NRs/二氧化硅涂层硫化铋纳米棒多模态显影剂可用于胃肠道GI成像技术


利用硫酸钡悬浮液作为X光显影剂用于小肠成像,由于其自身具备的非降解及其他一些不理想的特点使其在胃肠道穿孔及肠道结构观测方面受到很大限制;其他常用的胃肠道显影剂便是碘代分子,但因其本身X射线吸收率较低,所以通常需要大剂量使用才能达到理想的效果,这常常会使病人产生碘过敏性反应。

制备得到二氧化硅涂覆的硫化铋纳米棒(Bi2S3@SiO2 NRs)作为多模态显影剂用于胃肠道的无侵害性实时成像以及直接观测其在胃肠道下部的流经过程(Scheme 1)。经二氧化硅包覆后,在胃及小肠中,Bi2S3@SiO2 NRs展现出非常好的水溶性,生物相容性以及稳定性。通过TEM可以看出,Bi2S3 NRs宽约10 nm,长约50 nm,元素分析谱图显示成功制备得到高纯度的Bi2S3 NRsFig. 1),经二氧化硅涂覆后,Bi2S3@SiO2 NRs呈现单分散性,SiO2壳层厚度约为6 nmFig. 2)。

通过CT成像分析发现,随着Bi2S3@SiO2 NRs浓度增加,其HU值明显增加,相同浓度下的HU值明显高于硫酸钡,PAT信号随浓度增加也呈线性增长关系(Fig. 3)。

Bi2S3@SiO2 NRs的生物相容性进行检测,发现16HBEBi2S3@SiO2 NRs共培养24 h后并未显示出明显的毒性,并且该粒子进入秀丽隐杆线虫体内后对其寿命也没有明显的影响,这就说明Bi2S3@SiO2 NRs具有非常好的生物相容性(Fig. 4)。

Bi2S3@SiO2 NRs以口服的方式进入BALB/c裸鼠体内,通过CTPATBi2S3@SiO2 NRs进行实时成像追踪,发现该粒子通过胃肠道渐渐进入小肠较后以粪便的形式排出体外,该过程中对胃肠道的功能没有明显的损伤,说明Bi2S3@SiO2 NRs对组织无侵入性损伤(Fig. 5, 6, 7)。
