Préparation de liposomes fonctionnels pour l’encapsulation de composés bioactifs ou de sondes moléculaires fluorescentes pour l’imagerie cellulaire
2016
At ICMUB Institute, SUV liposomes have been used to achieve fluorophore encapsulation (subphtalocyanine) for cellular imaging [1] and have been bioconjugated to a peptide (bombesin) to achieve site-specificity, thanks to the structural modification of cholesterol, a component of the liposome, upon introduction of a reactive function. Hence, such liposomes fonctionnalised on the outer face may react with the terminal function of the peptide. Upon purification of the liposome by FPLC a 15 % encapsulation rate was measured by UV/Vis and attempted by ICP. The (outer) diameter of the liposomes (dDLS and dMET) ranged between 20 and 60 nm depending on the type of function or substituents on the ou…
New site-specific bioconjugation strategies and their application to the development of molecular imaging agents for cancer diagnostic
2018
The preparation of targeted imaging agents suitable for cancer diagnostic involves the coupling of an imaging probe to a vector, generally a protein, able to specifically target cancerous tissues. Unfortunately, this bioconjugation step is often problematic. Indeed, proteins present a large variety of reactive functions that can potentially interfere with the coupling reaction. The purpose of this work is the design of innovative selective bioconjugation strategies that can facilitate the synthesis of molecular imaging agents.Our research led to the development of a simple and efficient approach allowing the modification of a protein with a fluorophore by using a site-specific bioconjugatio…
Multifunctional platforms for cancer theranosis
2018
The objective of this thesis was to develop multifunctional tools for cancer theranosis, particularly based on nanotechnology. The work is based on the premise of monomolecular multimodal platform that aims to create the building blocks that can be used for the synthesis of functionalized nanoparticles, bioconjugates or targeted small molecular imaging probes.The initial work focused on the synthesis of the chelator based silane precursors. These novel precursors were employed for the functionalization of AGuIX nanoparticles and have also been implicated in a one pot AGuIX synthesis. Radiolabelling of these nanoparticles was performed with the aim to evaluate the stability of these nanopart…
