Temperature Sensing of Deep Abdominal Region in Mice by Using Over-1000 nm Near-Infrared Luminescence of Rare-Earth-Doped NaYF4 Nanothermometer.

ABSTRACT: Luminescence nanothermometry has attracted much attention as a non-contact thermal sensing technique. However, it is not widely explored for in vivo applications owing to the low transparency of tissues for the light to be used. In this study, we performed biological temperature sensing in deep tissues using ?-NaYF4 nanoparticles co-doped with Yb3+, Ho3+, and Er3+ (NaYF4: Yb3+, Ho3+, Er3+ NPs), which displayed two emission peaks at 1150?nm (Ho3+) and 1550?nm (Er3+) in the >1000?nm near-infrared wavelength region, where the scattering and absorption of light by biological tissues are at the minimum. The change in the luminescence intensity ratio of the emission peaks of Ho3+ and Er3+ (IHo/IEr) in the NaYF4: Yb3+, Ho3+, Er3+ nanothermometer differs corresponding to the thickness of the tissue. Therefore, the relationship between IHo/IEr ratio and temperature needs to be calibrated by the depth of the nanothermometer. The temperature-dependent change in the IHo/IEr was evident at the peritoneal cavity level, which is deeper than the subcutaneous tissue level. The designed experimental system for temperature imaging will open the window to novel luminescent nanothermometers for in vivo deep tissue temperature sensing.

Luminescence nanothermometry has attracted much attention as a non-contact thermal sensing technique. However, it is not widely explored for in vivo applications owing to the low transparency of tissues for the light to be used.

Project description:We report the synthesis and properties of the first representative of a new class of PtL2 complexes with ambidentate mixed-donor cyanoxime ligands [L = 2-cyano-2-oximino-N,N'-diethylaminoacetamide, DECO (1)]. Three differently colored polymorphs of "Pt(DECO)2" (3-5) were isolated, with the first two being crystallographically characterized. The dark-green complex [Pt(DECO)2]n (5) spontaneously forms in aqueous solution via aggregation of yellow monomeric complex 3 into the red dimer [Pt(DECO)2]2 (4), followed by further oligomerization into coordination polymer 5. A spectroscopic and light-scattering study revealed a "poker-chips"-type 1D polymeric structure of 5 in which units are held by noncovalent metallophilic interactions, forming a Pt---Pt wire. The polymer 5 shows a broad absorption at 400-900 nm and emission at unusually long wavelengths in the range of 1000-1100 nm in the solid state. The near-infrared (NIR) emission of polymer 5 is due to the formation of a small amount of nonstoichiometric mixed-valence Pt(II)/Pt(IV) species during synthesis. A featureless electron paramagnetic resonance spectrum of solid sample 5 recorded at +23 and -193 °C evidences the absence of Pt(III) states, and the compound represents a "solid solution" containing mixed-valence Pt(II)/Pt(IV) centers. Exposure of KBr pellets with 5% 5 to Br2 vapors leads to an immediate ∼30% increase in the intensity of photoluminescence at 1024 nm, which confirms the role and importance of mixed-valence species for the NIR emission. Thus, the emission is further enhanced upon additional oxidation of Pt(II) centers, which improves delocalization of electrons along the Pt---Pt vector. Other polymorph of the "Pt(DECO)2" complex--monomer--did not demonstrate luminescent properties in solutions and the solid state. An excitation scan of 5 embedded in KBr tablets revealed an emission only weakly dependent on the wavelength of excitation. The NIR emission of quasi-1D complex 5 was studied in the range of -193 to +67 °C. Data showed a blue shift of λmax and a simultaneous increase in the emission line intensity with a temperature rise, which is explained by analogy with similar behavior of known quasi-1D K2[Pt(CN)4]-based solids, quantum dots, and quantum wells with delocalized carriers. The presented finding opens a route to a new class of platinum cyanoxime based NIR emissive complexes that could be used in the design of novel NIR emitters and imaging agents.
