Engineering Ultrasound Contrast Agents for Targeted Therapeutics: A Theranostic Approach to Drug Delivery, Gene Therapy, and Immunomodulation

Advanced NanoBiomed Research, Volume 6, Issue 2, February 2026.
Ultrasound contrast agents, including microbubbles and nanobubbles, transform imaging and targeted therapy through precise engineering of size, shell composition, and surface properties. This review explores how these innovations enable tissue‐specific delivery, enhance therapeutic efficacy, and extend applications from vascular imaging to tumor ...

Precision mRNA Delivery via Ultrasound‐Controlled Release Perfluorocarbon Emulsions: An Innovative Ultrasound Theranostic Strategy with 19F MRI Feasibility

Small, Volume 22, Issue 11, 20 February 2026.
A key challenge in advancing messenger RNA (mRNA) therapeutics in cardiovascular diseases lies in achieving controlled release at the precise site within the vasculature. This study presents the development of perfluorocarbon nanodroplets with exceptional theranostic potential, enabling real‐time tracking through ultrasound and fluorine‐19 (19F ...

Shedding Light on the Cellular Uptake Mechanisms of Bioactive Glass Nanoparticles as Controlled Intracellular Delivery Platforms: A Review of the Recent Literature

Advanced Healthcare Materials, Volume 15, Issue 1, 9 January 2026.
This review summarizes the main uptake pathways of bioactive glass nanoparticles (BGNs) and their intracellular localization, highlighting that BGNs are mainly internalized and entrapped within endosomes/lysosomes. Strategies for controlled intracellular ion release, with implications for targeted modulation of cell behavior, are discussed. The need to

Sonoporation: Gene transfer using ultrasound

World Journal of Methodology, 2013
Genes can be transferred using viral or non-viral vectors. Non-viral methods that use plasmid DNA and short interference RNA (siRNA) have advantages, such as low immunogenicity and low likelihood of genomic integration in the host, when compared to viral methods.

Ultrasonic enhancement of drug penetration in solid tumors

Frontiers in Oncology, 2013
Increasing the penetration of drugs within solid tumors can be accomplished through multiple ultrasound-mediated mechanisms. The application of ultrasound can directly change the structure or physiology of tissues or can induce changes in a drug or ...

Electrochemical generation of microbubbles by carbon nanotube interdigital electrodes to increase the permeability and material uptakes of cancer cells

Drug Delivery, 2019
Artificial cavitation as a prerequisite of sonoporation, plays an important role on the ultrasound (US) assisted drug delivery systems. In this study, we have proposed a new method of microbubble (MB) generation by local electrolysis of the medium.
