Anti-CEA-functionalized superparamagnetic iron oxide nanoparticles for examining colorectal tumors in vivo
Although the biomarker carcinoembryonic antigen (CEA) is expressed in colorectal tumors, the utility of an anti-CEA-functionalized image medium is powerful for in vivo positioning of colorectal tumors. With a risk of superparamagnetic iron oxide nanoparticles (SPIONPs) that is lower for animals than other material carriers, anti-CEA-functionalized SPIONPs were synthesized in this study for labe...
متن کاملInteraction of functionalized superparamagnetic iron oxide nanoparticles with brain structures.
Super Paramagnetic Iron Oxide Nanoparticles (SPIONs) combined with magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) are under clinical evaluation to enhance detection of neurodegenerative diseases. A major improvement would be to link therapeutic drugs to the SPIONs to achieve targeted drug delivery, either at the cell surface or intracellularly, together with active disease detection, without inducing cell re...
متن کاملFunctionalized superparamagnetic iron oxide nanoparticles provide highly efficient iron-labeling in macrophages for magnetic resonance–based detection in vivo
BACKGROUND AIMS Tracking cells during regenerative cytotherapy is crucial for monitoring their safety and efficacy. Macrophages are an emerging cell-based regenerative therapy for liver disease and can be readily labeled for medical imaging. A reliable, clinically applicable cell-tracking agent would be a powerful tool to study cell biodistribution. METHODS Using a recently described chemical...
متن کاملDendrimer-Functionalized Shell-crosslinked Iron Oxide Nanoparticles for In-Vivo Magnetic Resonance Imaging of Tumors**
Non-invasive diagnosis and detection of early-stage tumors is regarded as one of the current challenges in the biomedical sciences. Magnetic resonance (MR) imaging is a powerful, non-invasive imaging technique because of its high spatial resolution and tomographic capabilities. However, the signal sensitivity of MR imaging for specific biological targets is largely dependent on the specificity ...
متن کاملSophorolipids-functionalized iron oxide nanoparticles.
Functional iron oxide nanoparticles (NP) have been synthesized in a one and a two-step method using a natural functional glycolipid belonging to the family of sophorolipids (SL). These compounds, whose open acidic form is highly suitable for nanoparticle stabilization, are readily obtained by a fermentation process of the yeast Candida bombicola (polymorph Starmerella bombicola) in large amount...
