Abstract:
Two neuropilin 1 (NRP1)-targeted near-infrared fluorescence probes for tumor imaging were synthesized via click reaction. These two probes achieve excellent solubility and less aggregation. Importantly, they were able to rapidly target NRP1-overexpressing tumors and had long retention within tumors. Additionally, QS-1 with appropriate hydrophilicity displays higher tumor to muscle (T/M) ratio. And QS-1 can be easily modified with other functional group, and serve as a platform for constructing dual-modal or dual-targeting probes.
