Anti-αvβ3 antibody guided three-step pretargeting approach using magnetoliposomes for molecular magnetic resonance imaging of breast cancer angiogenesis
PURPOSE Pretargeting of biomarkers with nanoparticles in molecular imaging is promising to improve diagnostic specificity and realize signal amplification, but data regarding its targeting potential in magnetic resonance (MR) imaging are limited. The purpose of this study was to evaluate the tumor angiogenesis targeting efficacy of the anti-αvβ3 antibody guided three-step pretargeting approach ...
متن کاملMagnetoliposomes open up new horizons as MRI contrast agents
Introduction High resolution MRI has a low sensitivity for the visualization of low cell numbers in vivo. This is circumvent by the internalization of high concentrations of superparamagnetic iron oxide particles resulting in potential cytotoxic effects or affecting cell biology like differentiation, formation of ROS etc. [1]. In addition, the ability to monitor iron oxide labelled cells in viv...
متن کاملEffective elimination of liver cancer stem-like cells by CD90 antibody targeted thermosensitive magnetoliposomes
AIM To investigate the use of thermosensitive magnetoliposomes (TMs) loaded with magnetic iron oxide (Fe3O4) and the anti-cancer stem cell marker CD90 (CD90@TMs) to target and kill CD90+ liver cancer stem cells (LCSCs). METHODS The hepatocellular carcinoma cell line Huh7 was used to separate CD90+ LCSCs by magnetic-activated cell sorting. CD90@TMs was characterized and their ability to target...
متن کاملA Method for Drug Delivery Using Magnetoliposomes
Student Researcher: Jacquoi James; Mentor: Max Kullberg; University of Alaska Anchorage, Yakutat, Alaska Studies show that current methods of systemic drug delivery lack the specificity needed to effectively target tumors. Our current efforts are a continuation of our work presented through the NIDDK program last year. The aim of our research is to develop a toxin delivery system that will safe...
متن کاملThermosensitive gemcitabine-magnetoliposomes for combined hyperthermia and chemotherapy.
The combination of magnetic hyperthermia therapy with the controlled release of chemotherapeutic agents in tumors may be an efficient therapeutic with few side effects because the bioavailability, tolerance and amount of the drug can be optimized. Here, we prepared magnetoliposomes consisting of magnetite nanoparticle cores and the anticancer drug gemcitabine encapsulated by a phospholipid bila...
