Acoustic characterization of cavitation intensity: A review

Ultrasonics Sonochemistry, 2022
Cavitation intensity is used to describe the activity of cavitation, and several methods are developed to identify the intensity of cavitation. This work aimed to provide an overview and discussion of the several existing characterization methods for cavitation intensity, three acoustic approaches for charactering cavitation were discussed in detail ...

Femtosecond‐Laser Nanocavitation Regenerates SERS‐Active Plasmonic Nanogaps for Longitudinal Molecular Sensing at Biointerfaces

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
A regenerative molecular sensing platform that co‐localizes surface‐enhanced Raman spectroscopy (SERS) sensing and nanocavitation‐based actuation. Femtosecond‐laser triggered nanocavitation produces thermomechanical forces to locally regenerate SERS‐active nanogaps in protein‐rich biofluids while preserving optical performance.

Biodegradable Acoustic Targeting for Ultrasound‐Supported Gene Therapy (BATUS) in Glioblastoma

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Glioblastoma (GBM) remains one of the most challenging brain malignancies due to the restrictive nature of the blood–brain barrier (BBB), which severely limits effective drug and gene delivery. To overcome this, we introduce Biodegradable Acoustic Targeting for Ultrasound‐Supported Gene Therapy (BATUS), a modular platform that enables safe ...

Cavitation erosion from single acoustically driven bubbles

Ultrasonics Sonochemistry
Acoustic cavitation is achieved by exciting mechanical vibrations at ultrasonic frequencies, which in turn cause the formation of bubble clouds, followed by flows and emulsification.

Effects of sub-atmospheric pressure and dissolved oxygen concentration on lesions generated in ex vivo tissues by high intensity focused ultrasound

BioMedical Engineering OnLine, 2021
Background Acoustic cavitation plays an important role in the medical treatment using high-intensity focused ultrasound (HIFU), but unnecessarily strong cavitation also could deform the morphology and enlarge the size of lesions.

Spatiotemporally Ultrasound‐Controlled Nanoparticles Reprogramming Immunostimulatory Antigen‐Presenting Cancer‐Associated Fibroblasts to Enhance Cancer Immunotherapy

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
We developed an ultrasound‐controlled biomimetic nanoplatform, mRNA/V@M NPs, to co‐deliver CD74 mRNA and V‐9302 for fibrotic TNBC therapy. CD74 mRNA reprograms myCAFs into antigen‐presenting apCAF cells through the CD74‐MHC II pathway, while V‐9302 induces ICD and activates MHC I‐CD8+ T cell immunity.

Immediate Growth Control in Response to Boiling Histotripsy is Prognostic for Intratumoral Immune Activation

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Boiling Histrotripsy (BH), a mechanical form of focused ultrasound (FUS), allows for non‐invasive and non‐ionizing tissue destruction. Utilizing a BH treatment protocol that yielded bifurcating primary tumor growth responses, we found that immediate BH‐induced tumor growth control identifies tumors with acute reductions in antigen‐presenting cells (APC)

Sonoselective Transfection of Glioma Endothelium

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Delivering non‐viral, gene‐bearing nanoparticles with thiol‐decorated surfaces to gliomas with focused ultrasound yields transfection tropism for endothelial cells. From this platform, “sonoselective” transfection of glioma endothelium is achieved via incorporation of an endothelial cell‐specific promoter.

Dual‐Responsive Hydrogels Integrate Bioelectrical Stimulation and Piezo‐Photocatalysis for Regenerative Treatment of Infected Wounds

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
A wireless, dual‐responsive hydrogel (PVA/(PVDF‐TrFE)/BiOClBr@PDA) is developed to promote efficient regeneration of infected wounds by integrating piezoelectric stimulation with piezo‐photocatalytic pathways. Under simultaneous light and ultrasonic stimulation, the hydrogel generates therapeutic electrical cues and reactive oxygen species, disrupting ...
