Folate-modified erythrocyte membrane nanoparticles loaded with Fe3O4 and artemisinin enhance ferroptosis of tumors by low-intensity focused ultrasound

Frontiers in Oncology, 2022
To overcome the challenges of the low efficiency of artemisinin (ART) in anticancer therapy due to its poor water solubility and poor bioavailability, we constructed folate (FA)-modified erythrocyte membrane (EM)-camouflaged poly (lactic-co-glycolic acid)

Molecular imaging agents for ultrasound

Current Opinion in Chemical Biology, 2018
Ultrasound (US) imaging is a safe, sensitive and affordable imaging modality with a wide usage in the clinic. US signal can be further enhanced by using echogenic contrast agents (UCAs) which amplify the US signal. Developments in UCAs which are targeted to sites of disease allow the use of US imaging to provide molecular information.

Ultrasound molecular imaging of cardiovascular disease [PDF]

Nature Clinical Practice Cardiovascular Medicine, 2008
Myocardial contrast echocardiography utilizes intravenously injected gas-filled microspheres as acoustically active red blood cell tracers. During ultrasound imaging, unimpeded microsphere transit through the intramyocardial microcirculation causes transient myocardial opacification, which can be mapped and quantified as myocardial perfusion ...

Chemotherapy-Response Monitoring of Breast Cancer Patients Using Quantitative Ultrasound-Based Intra-Tumour Heterogeneities [PDF]

, 2017
© 2017 The Author(s). Anti-cancer therapies including chemotherapy aim to induce tumour cell death. Cell death introduces alterations in cell morphology and tissue micro-structures that cause measurable changes in tissue echogenicity.

Ultrasound molecular imaging of atherosclerosis [PDF]

Cardiovascular Research, 2009
Recent advances in our understanding of the pathophysiological mechanisms of atherosclerosis have created the need for better non-invasive imaging of vascular phenotype. Ultrasound is widely available, inexpensive, and well suited for high-throughput screening in populations that are at risk for atherosclerosis.
