Cerenkov luminescence (CL) imaging is an emerging technique that collects the
visible photons produced by radioisotopes. Here, molecular imaging strategies are
investigated that switch the CL signal off. The noninvasive molecularly specific
detection of cancer is demonstrated utilizing a combination of clinically
approved agents, and their analogues. CL is modulated in vitro in a dose
dependent manner using approved small molecules (Lymphazurin), as well as the
clinically approved Feraheme and other preclinical superparamagnetic iron oxide
nanoparticles (SPIO). To evaluate the quenching of CL in vivo, two strategies are
pursued. [(18) F]-FDG is imaged by PET and CL in tumors prior to and following
accumulation of nanoparticles. Initially, non-targeted particles are administered
to mice bearing tumors in order to attenuate CL. For targeted imaging, a dual
tumor model (expressing the human somatostatin receptor subtype-2 (hSSTr2) and a
control negative cell line) is used. Targeting hSSTr2 with octreotate-conjugated
SPIO, quenched CL enabling non-invasive distinction between tumors' molecular
expression profiles is demonstrated. In this work, the quenching of Cerenkov
emissions is demonstrated in several proof of principle models using a
combination of approved agents and nanoparticle platforms to provide disease
relevant information including tumor vascularity and specific antigen expression.
