This video demonstrates a near-infrared photoimmunotherapy technique to treat lung cancer in an engineered mouse model exhibiting luciferase-expressing tumor cells. Upon injecting an antibody-photosensitizer conjugate (APC) that binds to specific antigens on the tumor cells, the mouse is exposed to near-infrared radiation, inducing photochemical changes in the APC and leading to necrotic death of the bound tumor cells. The effectiveness of the treatment is monitored by injecting luciferin, a luciferase substrate, and measuring the bioluminescence over time, correlating with tumor growth.

Protocol

All procedures involving animal models have been reviewed by the local institutional animal care committee and the JoVE veterinary review board. 1. Conjugation of IR700 with mAb Incubate monoclonal antibody (mAb) (1 mg, 6.8 nmol) with IR700 N-Hydroxysuccinimide (NHS) ester (66.8 mg, 34.2 nmol, 5 mmol/L in dimethyl sulfoxide [DMSO]) in 0.1 mol/L Na2HPO4 (pH 8.6) at 15-25 °C for 1 h. Purify the mixture using a column (e.g., Sephad…
