Magnetic Resonance Imaging of Fibroblast Activation Protein Using a Targeted Gadolinium-Based Contrast Agent.
The aim of this study was to synthesize a quinoline-based MRI contrast agent, Gd-DOTA-FAPI04, and assess its capacity for targeting fibroblast activation protein (FAP)-positive tumors in vivo. Gd-DOTA-FAPI04 was synthesized by attaching a 1,4,7,10-tetraazacyclododecane-1,4,7,10-tetraacetic acid (DOTA) complex of gadolinium(III) to FAP inhibitor FAPI04. The longitudinal relaxation time (T1) of the contrast agent was measured using a Siemens Prisma 3.0T MR system, and the CCK-8 assay was performed to evaluate its potential cytotoxicity. Male nude mice bearing tumors grown from FAP-expressing fibrosarcoma cells were divided into experimental (n = 4) and control (n = 4) groups, and T1-weighted image enhancement was measured at different times (0, 10, 30, 60, 90, and 120 min) postinjection of Gd-DOTA-FAPI04. The control group received an additional preinjection of excess FAPI04. FAP expression in tumor tissue was investigated by using immunohistochemistry with an anti-FAP antibody. The longitudinal relaxivities of gadodiamide and Gd-DOTA-FAPI04 were measured to be 3.734 mM-1 s-1 and 5.323 mM-1 s-1, respectively. The CCK-8 assay demonstrated that Gd-DOTA-FAPI04 has minimal toxicity to cultured human fibrosarcoma cells. In vivo MRI showed that peak accumulation of Gd-DOTA-FAPI04 in FAP-expressing tumors occurred 1 h postinjection and could be blocked by preinjection of excess FAPI04. Immunohistochemical analysis of harvested tumor tissue supported the above findings. Gd-DOTA-FAPI04 is a promising contrast agent for in vivo imaging of FAP.
