Electrostatic Polyion Micelles with Fluorescence and MRI Dual Functions.
We report in this work the formation of fluorescence and MRI bimodal imaging nanoparticles achieved by electrostatic self-assembly. The nanoparticles are micelles formed with Gd(3+) ion, a bisligand that contains aggregation induced emission (AIE) group, and a block copolymer. The coordination between the Gd(3+) ion and the bisligand produces a negatively charged coordination complex, which int...
متن کاملMicelles and nanoparticles for ultrasonic drug and gene delivery.
Drug delivery research employing micelles and nanoparticles has expanded in recent years. Of particular interest is the use of these nanovehicles that deliver high concentrations of cytotoxic drugs to diseased tissues selectively, thus reducing the agent's side effects on the rest of the body. Ultrasound, traditionally used in diagnostic medicine, is finding a place in drug delivery in connecti...
متن کاملGlioma-targeting micelles for optical/magnetic resonance dual-mode imaging
Surgical resection is the primary mode for glioma treatment, while gross total resection is difficult to achieve, due to the invasiveness of the gliomas. Meanwhile, the tumor-resection region is closely related to survival rate and life quality. Therefore, we developed optical/magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) bifunctional targeted micelles for glioma so as to delineate the glioma location befor...
متن کاملA folate-integrated magnetic polymer micelle for MRI and dual targeted drug delivery.
This paper devotes a novel micellar structure for cancer theranostics by incorporating magnetic and therapeutic functionalities into a natural sourced targeting polymer vehicle. Heparin-folic acid micelles taking advantage of both excellent loading capability and cancer targeting ability have been employed to simultaneously incorporate superparamagnetic iron oxide nanoparticles (SPIONs) and dox...
متن کاملMagnetic Graphene Oxide Nanocarrier as a drug delivery vehicle for MRI monitored magnetic targeting of rat brain tumors
Introduction: Glioblastoma multiform is the most common malignant brain tumor, with an invasive nature. Despite the development of conventional therapies such as surgery, radiotherapy and chemotherapy, because of high recurrence rates, the prognosis remains very poor. Over the last decade, nanotechnology has represented an innovative method as nanoparticle-based drug delivery ...
