Cypate is a near-infrared fluorescent dye that belongs to the family of photosensitizers. Cypate has high photostability and optical properties, and is often used in near-infrared optical imaging, as well as optical imaging, tumor marking, and drug delivery. In addition, Cypate is also used as a molecular probe and combined with targeting molecules (such as CBT or small interfering RNA) to achieve efficient detection and imaging of specific cells or tissues.

Description

Cypate is a near-infrared fluorescent dye that belongs to the family of photosensitizers. Cypate has high photostability and optical properties, and is often used in near-infrared optical imaging, as well as optical imaging, tumor marking, and drug delivery. In addition, Cypate is also used as a molecular probe and combined with targeting molecules (such as CBT or small interfering RNA) to achieve efficient detection and imaging of specific cells or tissues[1][2].

In Vitro

In the study, Cypate coupled upconversion nanoparticles (UCNP-cy) loaded with small interfering RNA gene with anti-heat shock protein 70 (UCNP-cy-siRNA) resulted in targeted cell damage and anti-tumor effects[1].
Cypate can also be coupled to CBT (Cysteine-containing Peptide Backbone Tag), which can be used to track, label and image specific biomolecules or cells. For example, Cypate-CBT, as a near-infrared photoacoustic (PA) probe, can be used to specifically image and track cathepsin B (CTSB) activity in CTSB-overexpressing cells and tumors in real time. After Cypate-CBT entered CTSB overexpressing cells, it underwent glutathione reduction and CTSB cleavage to generate cypate nanoparticles Cypate-CBT-NPs, which enhanced the intensity and retention time of PA signal at tumor sites. Cypate-CBT has the potential to be used as an effective PA imaging agent for clinical diagnosis of early cancer[2].

In Vivo:

Select the appropriate dissolution method based on your experimental animal and administration route.

For the following dissolution methods, please ensure to first prepare a clear stock solution using an In Vitro approach and then sequentially add co-solvents:
To ensure reliable experimental results, the clarified stock solution can be appropriately stored based on storage conditions. As for the working solution for in vivo experiments, it is recommended to prepare freshly and use it on the same day.
The percentages shown for the solvents indicate their volumetric ratio in the final prepared solution. If precipitation or phase separation occurs during preparation, heat and/or sonication can be used to aid dissolution.

  • Protocol 1

    Add each solvent one by one:  10% DMSO    40% PEG300    5% Tween-80    45% Saline

    Solubility: ≥ 1.25 mg/mL (1.89 mM); Clear solution

    This protocol yields a clear solution of ≥ 1.25 mg/mL (saturation unknown).

    Taking 1 mL working solution as an example, add 100 μL DMSO stock solution (12.5 mg/mL) to 400 μL PEG300, and mix evenly; then add 50 μL Tween-80 and mix evenly; then add 450 μL Saline to adjust the volume to 1 mL.

    Preparation of Saline: Dissolve 0.9 g sodium chloride in ddH₂O and dilute to 100 mL to obtain a clear Saline solution.
  • Protocol 2

    Add each solvent one by one:  10% DMSO    90% (20% SBE-β-CD in Saline)

    Solubility: 1.25 mg/mL (1.89 mM); Suspended solution; Need ultrasonic

    This protocol yields a suspended solution of 1.25 mg/mL. Suspended solution can be used for oral and intraperitoneal injection.

    Taking 1 mL working solution as an example, add 100 μL DMSO stock solution (12.5 mg/mL) to 900 μL 20% SBE-β-CD in Saline, and mix evenly.

    Preparation of 20% SBE-β-CD in Saline (4°C, storage for one week): 2 g SBE-β-CD powder is dissolved in 10 mL Saline, completely dissolve until clear.

Help & FAQs
  • Do most proteins show cross-species activity?

    Species cross-reactivity must be investigated individually for each product. Many human cytokines will produce a nice response in mouse cell lines, and many mouse proteins will show activity on human cells. Other proteins may have a lower specific activity when used in the opposite species.
