A new synthesis of cystamine modified Eu3+ DOTAM-Gly-Phe-OH: a conjugation ready temperature sensitive MRI contrast agent.
Several approaches towards asymmetrically derivatized peptide-decorated cyclens that yield lanthanide metal chelators, in which three of the nitrogen atoms of cyclen share a common substituent and the fourth nitrogen atom is differentially substituted, have been evaluated. The most effective route consisted of selective monoalkylation followed by peralkylation with a second different electrophi...
متن کاملA Single PARACEST MRI Contrast Agent for Accurate in vivo pH Measurements
Introduction: pH is a physiological indicator of tumor lesions and other pathological abnormalities in soft tissues. MRI has shown tremendous potential for noninvasive in vivo pH measurements, though formidable challenges exist regarding sensitivity, accuracy and/or the need of a second pHunresponsive agent as control. Endogenous Chemical Exchange Saturation Transfer (CEST) and PARAmagnetic CES...
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...
متن کاملA self-calibrating PARACEST MRI contrast agent that detects esterase enzyme activity.
The CEST effect of many PARACEST MRI contrast agents changes in response to a molecular biomarker. However, other molecular biomarkers or environmental factors can influence CEST, so that a change in CEST is not conclusive proof for detecting the biomarker. To overcome this problem, a second control CEST effect may be included in the same PARACEST agent, which is responsive to all factors that ...
متن کاملCoCEST: cobalt(II) amide-appended paraCEST MRI contrast agents.
The first examples of air-stable Co(II) paraCEST MRI contrast agents are reported. Amide NH protons on the complexes give rise to CEST peaks that are shifted up to 112 ppm from the bulk water resonance. One complex has multiple CEST peaks that may be useful for ratiometric mapping of pH.
