Description

Kit based on surface enhanced Raman probe, application thereof and imaging method
Technical Field
The invention relates to the technical field of biological imaging, in particular to a kit based on a Raman probe, and application and an imaging method thereof.
Background
At present, cancer remains the first killer of human health, and the incidence rate is increasing year by year, and the treatment problem of cancer is still being tried to overcome worldwide. China is the country with the greatest increase in the rate of cancer growth worldwide. The postoperative metastasis spread of tumor surgical treatment is one of the main causes of cancer recurrence, and the prevention and treatment of tumor metastasis and recurrence is one of the important ways to improve the survival rate of cancer. The metastasis of tumor cells of primary cancer to the distant end through the lymph system via various levels of lymph nodes is the main mode of tumor metastasis. Therefore, in order to prevent tumor recurrence caused by tumor cell metastasis through lymphatic system, the solid tumor needs to be removed by surgery, and the lymphatic system which may have tumor cell metastasis needs to be cleared by lymphocleaning surgery, so as to achieve the purpose of reducing the recurrence risk.
However, the lymphatic system plays an important role in the vital physiological activities of the human body, and unnecessary cleaning can bring great influence to the mind and body of the patient, for example, breast cancer, and after axillary lymphatic cleaning, edema, dyskinesia, weakness and the like of the upper limbs can be caused, so that the life quality of the patient is seriously influenced. Therefore, accurate positioning of Sentinel Lymph nodes around a tumor and determination of whether the Lymph nodes have tumor metastasis are important bases for assessing whether to perform Lymph Node cleaning, if the Sentinel Lymph nodes have tumor cell metastasis, the risk of tumor metastasis through the lymphatic system is increased, Lymph cleaning is required, if the Sentinel Lymph nodes do not have tumor cell metastasis, the risk of tumor metastasis of a secondary lymphatic system is low, and Lymph cleaning can be avoided, so that the risk of tumor recurrence is reduced, the lymphatic system of a patient is protected, the survival and the life quality are improved, and introduction of the Sentinel Lymph Node Biopsy (SLNB) technology is called a revolution in breast cancer treatment history.
Sentinel Node (SLN) refers to the first Node to which a Lymph Node in the primary focus of a malignant tumor metastasizes. The metastatic status of regional lymph nodes can be judged by SLNB. Sentinel lymph node biopsy requires the use of a sentinel lymph node imaging agent and corresponding imaging techniques to accomplish the localization of sentinel lymph nodes, but existing imaging agents and imaging techniques suffer from certain drawbacks. At present, the sentinel lymph node imaging technology can only locate sentinel lymph nodes, but the accuracy is not high enough, and more importantly, the specific imaging of tumor cells in lymph nodes cannot be directly carried out.
At present, sentinel lymph node localization techniques widely used in clinical practice at home and abroad are first-generation and second-generation traditional techniques, the first-generation technique is a dyeing method, sentinel lymph nodes are dyed by carbon black or methylene blue, and are located by observing the dyed lymph nodes with naked eyes, but the reliability of the naked eye observation is poor, the retention time of a dyeing material in the first-station lymph nodes, namely the sentinel lymph nodes, is short, the dyeing material can quickly enter a secondary lymphatic system, the sentinel lymph nodes are difficult to accurately locate, and certain trouble is caused to doctors. The second generation technology is mainly used for positioning by a nuclide method and a fluorescent staining method, the nuclide method needs to detect signals sent by radioactive substances by means of external equipment to determine lymph nodes, certain potential safety hazards exist, and the nuclide method needs to be matched with nuclear medicine subjects, so that the nuclide method is inconvenient to use and difficult to popularize in large areas in clinic. The fluorescence method needs the help of fluorescence equipment, the price of the fluorescence equipment is high, and the fluorescence method has the problems of poor tissue penetrability, poor fluorescence stability, easy interference of tissue autofluorescence and the like. All the above techniques can only realize the positioning or imaging of sentinel lymph nodes, and cannot realize the specific imaging of tumor cells in lymph nodes.

In addition, signals are obtained by means of a Raman device, and interference of human factors is avoided. The Raman probe has good enhancement performance and stability, has no problem of fluorescence quenching, and can be stored for a long time; the biocompatibility is good. Not only sentinel lymph node localization can be realized, but also whether tumor cells exist in sentinel lymph nodes can be judged.

Specifically, the kit reacts with lymphocytes, and after a period of time, a Raman spectrometer is used for imaging to obtain a Raman spectrum. At this time, the obtained raman spectrum is a composite raman spectrum, and the composite raman spectrum is decomposed by algorithms such as a classical least square method, a nonnegative matrix decomposition method, a convolutional neural network method, a minimum absolute value convergence or a selective operator regression method, so as to obtain spectra of the first surface enhanced raman probe and the second surface enhanced raman probe and abundance in lymph node tissues or cells. The method for obtaining the abundance can be Raman single-point test, multipoint test, two-dimensional imaging or scanning, and three-position imaging or scanning. Accurate and specific imaging of tumor cells in sentinel lymph nodes is achieved by the ratio of the abundance of the two raman probes. If the ratio of the abundances of the two raman probes exceeds a predetermined ratio value, the presence of tumor cells is indicated.
