Magnetofluorescent micellar complexes of terbium(III) as potential bimodal contrast agents for magnetic resonance and optical imaging.

چکیده
Terbium(III) was coordinated to four novel 1,4,7,10-tetraazacyclododecane-1,4,7,10-tetraacetic acid (DOTA) amphiphilic bisamide ligands. The complexes were assembled into mono-disperse micellar nano-aggregates and for the first time Tb(III) has been evaluated as a single lanthanide negative bimodal contrast agent for MRI/OI. The complexes show characteristic Tb(III) emission with quantum yields reaching 7.3% and transverse relaxivity r2 per Tb(III) micelle at 500 MHz and 310 K reaches maximum values up to 60 s(-1) micelle(-1). The efficient T2 relaxation at high magnetic field strengths is sustained by the increased rotational correlation time of the nano-aggregates and high magnetic moment of the terbium ion.

Bimodal imaging combines two imaging modalities in order to benefit from their advantages and compensate the limitations of each modality. This technique could accurately detect diseases for diagnostic purposes. Nanoparticles simultaneously offer diagnostic data via various imaging modalities owing to their unique properties. Moreover, bimodal nanoprobes could be incorporated into theranostic s...

Two new potential magnetic resonance imaging contrast agents, Gd-hematoporphyrin (Gd-H) and Gd-tetra-carboranylmethoxyphenyl-porphyrin (Gd TCP), were synthesized and applied to nude mice with human melanoma (MM 138) xenografts. These agents showed a high relaxivity because of their greater potential to coordinate water molecules. The reduction of T1 relaxation times of 16 and 21% was observed i...
