Résumé

Nanoparticles have emerged as promising theranostic tools for biomedical applications, notably in the treatment of cancers. However, to fully exploit their potential, a thorough understanding of their biodistribution is imperative. In this context, we prepared radioactive [64Cu]-exchanged faujasite nanosized zeolite ([64Cu]-FAU) to conduct positron emission tomography (PET) imaging tracking in preclinical glioblastoma models. In vivo results revealed a rapid and gradual accumulation over time of intravenously injected [64Cu]-FAU zeolite nanocrystals within the brain tumor, while no uptake in the healthy brain was observed. Although a specific tumor targeting was observed in the brain, the kinetics of uptake into tumor tissue was found to be dependent on the glioblastoma model. Indeed, our results showed a rapid uptake in U87-MG model while in U251-MG glioblastoma model tumor uptake was gradual over the time. Interestingly, a [64Cu] activity, decreasing over time, was also observed in organs of elimination such as kidney and liver without showing a difference in activity between both glioblastoma models. Ex vivo analyses confirmed the presence of zeolite nanocrystals in brain tumor with detection of both Si and Al elements originated from them. This radiolabelling strategy, performed for the first time using nanozeolites, enables precise tracking through PET imaging and confirms their accumulation within the glioblastoma. These findings further bolster the potential use of zeolite nanocrystals as valuable theranostic tools.
