Glucosamine Conjugated Gadolinium (III) Oxide Nanoparticles as a Novel Targeted Contrast Agent for Cancer Diagnosis in MRI
Background: Glucose transporter (Glut), a cellular transmembrane receptor, has a key role in the metabolism of cell glucose and is also associated with various human carcinomas.Objective: In this study, we evaluated a magnetic resonance (MR) imaging contrast agent for tumor detection based on paramagnetic gadolinium oxide (Gd2O3) coated polycyclodextrin (PCD) and mod...
متن کاملHyaluronic acid-functionalized single-walled carbon nanotubes as tumor-targeting MRI contrast agent
A tumor-targeting carrier, hyaluronic acid (HA)-functionalized single-walled carbon nanotubes (SWCNTs), was explored to deliver magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) contrast agents (CAs) targeting to the tumor cells specifically. In this system, HA surface modification for SWCNTs was simply accomplished by amidation process and could make this nanomaterial highly hydrophilic. Cellular uptake was pe...

slice images of Gd-DTPA, Gd-DOTACAT and 10% BSA at 37oC at 9.4T. Figure 2. Relaxation rate (R1 = 1/T1) as a function of concentration. Gd-DOTACAT has a greater relaxivity 6.9 (mM s) than clinically used Gd-DTPA (Magnevist®) of 3.2 (mM s). Figure 3. Signal intensity plots from 3 regions of interest: brain tissue, cerebral and non-cerebral blood vessels. There was an increase in signal intensity ...
متن کاملA peptide-targeted MRI contrast agent for cancer molecular imaging
Introduction: Early detection and diagnosis of malignant tumors enable more efficacious cancer treatment at an earlier stage and improvement of cancer patients' survival and quality of the life. Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) is a powerful imaging modality for cancer detection and diagnosis. However, current clinically used contrast enhanced MRI is not effective for molecular imaging because ...
متن کاملA novel MRI contrast agent synthesized by ion exchange method
Objective: In this study, the zeolite-coated iron oxide nanoparticles were evaluated as MRI contrast agent and effect of the nanocomposite synthesis method on MRI contrast was tested. Materials and Methods: Ion exchange method was used for synthesis of iron oxide-zeolite and the as prepared nanocomposite was characterized by XRD, FESEM and TEM. The nanocomposite toxicity in the cell culture, a...
