Precise diagnosis of lymph node metastasis to guide lymphadenectomy is highly important for gastric cancer therapy in clinics. Though surgical dissection of regional metastatic lymph nodes remains the only way for gastric cancer therapy, the extended dissection may cause unavoidable postoperative risk of complications. These is still lack of effective method enabling the accurate removal of metastatic gastric cancer cells in lymph nodes with minimum injuries to normal tissue. Herein, we report a new fluorescent copper sulfide (CuS) nanoparticle (RGD-CuS-Cy5.5) enabling both non-invasive multimodality imaging and targeting photothermal therapy (PTT) of metastatic gastric cancer cells in lymph nodes. We demonstrate that RGD-CuS-Cy5.5 can easily drain into sentinel lymph nodes (SLN) after injection into primary tumors, and selectively enter into metastatic gastric MNK45 tumor cells via αvβ3 integrin-mediated endocytosis. The resulting strong near-infrared (NIR) fluorescence and computed tomography (CT) contrast in metastatic SLN compared to normal SLN can precisely differentiate SLN metastasis of gastric cancers. Guided by the imaging, localized PTT with RGD-CuS-Cy5.5 is conducted upon irradiation with an 808 nm laser, resulting in complete removal of metastatic gastric tumor cells in SLN without obvious toxicity. Moreover, RGD-CuS-Cy5.5 can also allow for the rapid and non-invasive self-monitoring of PTT efficacy against metastatic SLNs in living mice. This study highlights the potential of using RGD-CuS-Cy5.5 for imaging-guided and targeting PTT of SLN metastasis in vivo, which may be applicable for the metastatic gastric cancer therapy in clinics.Statement of SignificanceRGD-CuS-Cy5.5 nanoparticles possess NIR fluorescence and CT signals for in vivo bimodality imaging of lymph node metastasis.Strong photothermal property under irradiation at 808 nm for efficient PTT.Easy drain into sentinel lymph nodes and selective enter metastatic gastric cancer cells via αvβ3 integrin-mediated endocytosis.Rapid and non-invasive monitoring of therapeutic efficacy against lymph node metastasis.
