RESUMO

The effect of novel silver nanowire encapsulated NaGdF4:Yb,Er hybrid nanocomposite on the upconversion emission and bioimaging properties has been investigated. The upconvension nanomaterials were synthesised by polyol method in the presence of ethylene glycol, PVP and ethylenediamine. The NaGdF4:Yb,Er-Ag hybrid was formed with upconverting NaGdF4:Yb,Er nanoparticles of size ~ 80 nm and silver nanowires of thickness ~ 30 nm. The surface plasmon induced by the silver ion in the NaGdF4:Yb,Er-Ag nanocomposite resulted an intense upconversion green emission at 520 nm and red emission at 660 nm by NIR diode laser excitation at 980 nm wavelength. The UV-Vis-NIR spectral absorption at 440 nm and 980 nm, the intense Raman vibrational modes and the strong upconversion emission results altogether confirm the localised surface plasmon resonance effect of silver ion in the hybrid nanocomposite. MRI study of both NaGdF4:Yb,Er nanoparticle and NaGdF4:Yb,Er-Ag nanocomposite revealed the T1 relaxivities of 22.13 and 10.39 mM-1 s-1, which are larger than the commercial Gd-DOTA contrast agent of 3.08 mM-1 s-1. CT imaging NaGdF4:Yb,Er-Ag and NaGdF4:Yb,Er respectively showed the values of 53.29 HU L/g and 39.51 HU L/g, which are higher than 25.78 HU L/g of the CT contrast agent Iobitridol. The NaGdF4:Yb,Er and NaGdF4:Yb,Er-Ag respectively demonstrated a negative zeta potential of 54 mV and 55 mV, that could be useful for biological application. The in vitro cytotoxicity of the NaGdF4:Yb,Er tested in HeLa and MCF-7 cancer cell line by MTT assay demonstrated a cell viability of 90 and 80 %, respectively. But, the cell viability of NaGdF4:Yb,Er-Ag slightly decreased to 80 and 78%. The confocal microscopy imaging showed that the UCNPs are effectively up-taken inside the nucleolus of the cancer cells, and it might be useful for NIR laser-assisted phototherapy for cancer treatment.

RESUMO

Near-infrared (NIR) Ytterbium(ΙΙΙ) complexes namely [Yb(dpq)(DMF)2Cl3] (1), [Yb(dppz)(DMF)2Cl3] (2), [Yb(dpq)(ttfa)3] (3) and [Yb(dppz)(ttfa)3] (4) based on photosensitizing antenna: dipyrido-[3,2-d:2',3'-f]-quinoxaline (dpq), dipyrido-[3,2-a:2',3'-c]-phenazine (dppz) and 4,4,4-trifluoro-1-(2-thienyl)-1,3-butanedione (Httfa), were designed as NIR bioimaging agents utilizing cooperative upconversion luminescence (CUCL) of Yb(III). Their structures, detailed photophysical properties, biological interactions, photo-induced DNA cleavage, NIR photocytotoxicity and cellular internalization and bioimaging properties were examined. Discrete mononuclear complexes adopt a seven-coordinated {LnN2O2Cl3} mono-capped octahedron (1, 2) and eight-coordinated {LnN2O6} distorted square antiprism geometry (3, 4) with bidentate N, N-donor dpq, dppz and O,O-donor ttfa ligands. The designed Yb(III) probes (3, 4) having advantages of dual sensitizing antennae (dpq/dppz and Httfa) to modulate the desirable optical properties in NIR region for bioimaging in biologically transparent window and light-responsive intracellular damage with spatiotemporal control. The lack of inner-sphere water (q = 0), remarkable photostability, large Stokes' shifts, presence of energetically rightly poised ligand 3T states allows efficient energy transfer (ET) to the emissive 2F5/2 state of Yb(ΙΙΙ). The unique cooperative upconversion luminescence (CUCL) of Yb(III) was observed in 1-4 in the visible blue region (λem = 490 nm) upon NIR excitation at 980 nm, makes them special candidates for NIR-to-visible or NIR-to-NIR cellular imaging probes. The CUCL property of Yb(III) were observed in the discrete mononuclear complexes both in solid state and solution. We elegantly utilized this remarkable property of Yb(III) for cellular imaging application for the first time to the our knowledge including potential uses in CUC/multiphoton excitation microscopy. The complexes exhibit significant binding propensity to DNA, HSA and BSA (K ∼ 105 M-1). They effectively cleave supercoiled (SC) DNA to its nicked circular (NC) form at 365 nm via photoredox pathways. The cellular uptake studies evidently displayed cytosolic and nuclear localization of the complexes. Finally, the capability of Yb(III) complexes usage for PDT were demonstrated through significant near-IR photocytotoxicity at 980 nm CW laser. The results depicted here offers an intelligent strategy towards developing light-responsive highly photostable Yb(III) probes for NIR theranostic application in the biologically transparent phototherapeutic window.
