These results suggest that oral administration of HSE might represent an interesting opportunity for the management of anxiety disorders.Human EGF Receptor 2 (HER2) is an important oncogene driving aggressive metastatic growth in up to 20% of breast cancer tumors. At the same time, it presents a target for passive immunotherapy such as trastuzumab (TZM). Although TZM has been widely used clinically since 1998, not all eligible patients benefit from this therapy due to primary and acquired drug resistance as well as potentially lack of drug exposure. Hence, it is critical to directly quantify TZM-HER2 binding dynamics, also known as cellular target engagement, in undisturbed tumor environments in live, intact tumor xenograft models. Herein, we report the direct measurement of TZM-HER2 binding in HER2-positive human breast cancer cells and tumor xenografts using fluorescence lifetime Forster Resonance Energy Transfer (FLI-FRET) via near-infrared (NIR) microscopy (FLIM-FRET) as well as macroscopy (MFLI-FRET) approaches. By sensing the reduction of fluorescence lifetime of donor-labeled TZM in the presence of acceptor-labeled TZM, we successfully quantified the fraction of HER2-bound and internalized TZM immunoconjugate both in cell culture and tumor xenografts in live animals. Ex vivo immunohistological analysis of tumors confirmed the binding and internalization of TZM-HER2 complex in breast cancer cells. Thus, FLI-FRET imaging presents a powerful analytical tool to monitor and quantify cellular target engagement
