Polyacetylenes containing
2,2,6,6-tetramethyl-piperidinooxy and poly(ethylene
glycol) conjugated with carboxyl fluorescein and folic
acid (FA) are synthesized by metathesis polymerization
of corresponding substituted acetylenes for targeted
bimodal MRI /optical imaging of tumors. In vitro studies
confirm excellent binding specificity and subsequent
enhanced cellular internalization of the targeted ORCAs
(PA-TEMPO-FI-FA). In vivo T1-weighted MRI and optical
imaging demonstrate the active tumor targeting ability
of PA-TEMPO-FI-FA to generate specific contrast
enhancement in mice bearing HeLa tumors. These results
indicate that the multifunctional ORCAs may provide a
tumor-targeted delivery platform for further molecular
imaging guided cancer therapy.
