Abstract
OBJECTIVES Mn-PyC3A is an experimental manganese (Mn)-based extracellular fluid magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) contrast agent that is being evaluated as a direct replacement for clinical gadolinium (Gd)-based contrast agents. The goals of this study were to use simultaneous positron emission tomography (PET)-MRI to (1) compare the whole-body pharmacokinetics, biodistribution, and elimination of Mn-PyC3A with the liver-specific contrast agent mangafodipir (Mn-DPDP), (2) determine the pharmacokinetics and fractional excretion of Mn-PyC3A in a rat model of renal impairment, and (3) compare whole-body elimination of Mn-PyC3A to gadoterate (Gd-DOTA) in a rat model of renal impairment. METHODS Mn-PyC3A and Mn-DPDP were radiolabeled with the positron emitting isotope Mn-52 via Mn2+ exchange with 52MnCl2. Dynamic simultaneous PET-MRI was used to measure whole-body pharmacokinetics and biodistribution of Mn-52 immediately and out to 7 days after an intravenous 0.2 mmol/kg dose of [52Mn]Mn-PyC3A to normal or to 5/6 nephrectomy rats or a 0.01 mmol/kg dose of [52Mn]Mn-DPDP to normal rats. The fractional excretion and 1- and 7-day biodistribution in rats after the injection of 2.0 mmol/kg [52Mn]Mn-PyC3A (n = 11 per time point) or 2.0 mmol/kg Gd-DOTA (n = 8 per time point) were quantified by gamma counting or Gd elemental analysis, respectively. Comparisons of Mn-PyC3A pharmacokinetics and in vivo biodistribution in normal and 5/6 nephrectomy rats and comparisons of ex vivo Mn versus Gd biodistribution data in 5/6 nephrectomy were made with an unpaired t test. RESULTS Dynamic PET-MRI data demonstrate that both [52Mn]Mn-PyC3A and [52Mn]Mn-DPDP were eliminated by mixed renal and hepatobiliary elimination but that a greater fraction of [52Mn]Mn-PyC3A was eliminated by renal filtration. Whole-body PET images show that Mn-52 from [52Mn]Mn-PyC3A was efficiently eliminated from the body, whereas Mn-52 from [52Mn]Mn-DPDP was retained throughout the body. The blood elimination half-life of [52Mn]Mn-PyC3A in normal and 5/6 nephrectomy rats was 13 ± 3.5 minutes and 23 ± 12 minutes, respectively (P = 0.083). Area under the curve between 0 and 60 minutes postinjection (AUC0-60) in the bladder of normal and 5/6 nephrectomy rats was 2600 ± 1700 %ID/cc*min and 750 ± 180 %ID/cc*min, respectively (P = 0.024), whereas AUC0-60 in the liver of normal and 5/6 nephrectomy rats was 33 ± 13 %ID/cc*min and 71 ± 16 %ID/cc*min, respectively (P = 0.011), indicating increased hepatobiliary elimination in 5/6 nephrectomy rats. The %IDs of Mn from [52Mn]Mn-PyC3A and Gd from Gd-DOTA recovered from 5/6 nephrectomy rats 1 day after injection were 2.0 ± 1.1 and 1.3 ± 0.34, respectively (P = 0.10) and 7 days after injection were 0.14 ± 0.11 and 0.41 ± 0.24, respectively (P = 0.0041). CONCLUSIONS Mn-PyC3A has different pharmacokinetics and is more efficiently eliminated than Mn-DPDP in normal rats. Mn-PyC3A is efficiently eliminated from both normal and 5/6 nephrectomy rats, with increased fractional hepatobiliary excretion from 5/6 nephrectomy rats. Mn-PyC3A is more completely eliminated than Gd-DOTA from 5/6 nephrectomy rats after 7 days.

Abstract
Abnormal gastric pH (pH > 3) has instructive significance for early diagnosis of various diseases, including cancer. However, for low patient compliance, limited penetration depth, high dependence on physiological function or unsafety issue, in situ noninvasive monitoring gastric pH is challenged. Herein, we developed a hydrogel capsule isolated human serum albumin-manganese complex (HSA-Mn) for in situ magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) gastric pH monitoring for the first time. In this strategy, the rotation motion restriction of Mn2+ after binding to HSA significantly increased the R1 (longitudinal relaxation rate) signal, and its high correlation with protonation imparted the HSA-Mn system sensitive responsiveness to varying pH (R1(pH 7)/R1(pH 1) = 8.2). Moreover, a screw jointed hydrogel capsule with signal confinement and internal standard abilities was designed. Such a nanoporous hydrogel capsule with size selectivity to surrounding molecules enabled a stable and sensitive response to different pH simulated gastric fluid within 0.5 h. In addition, with the unique structural outline and stable MRI characteristics, the capsule could also work as an internal standard, which facilitates the collection of signals and trace of the capsule in vivo. Through validating in a rabbit model, the precise abnormal gastric pH recognition capacity of the HSA-Mn hydrogel capsule was amply confirmed. Hence, the hydrogel capsule isolated HSA-Mn system strategy with great biocompatibility could be expected to be a potent tool for in situ anti-disturbance MRI of gastric pH in future clinical application.

Abstract
Interactions of paramagnetic metal complexes with their biological environment can modulate their magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) contrast-enhancing properties in different ways, and this has been widely exploited to create responsive probes that can provide biochemical information. We survey progress in two rapidly growing areas: the MRI detection of biologically important metal ions, such as calcium, zinc, and copper, and the use of transition metal complexes as smart MRI agents. In both fields, new imaging technologies, which take advantage of other nuclei (19F) and/or paramagnetic contact shift effects, emerge beyond classical, relaxation-based applications. Most importantly, in vivo imaging is gaining ground, and the promise of molecular MRI is becoming reality, at least for preclinical research.

Abstract
A Mn(II)-based zinc-sensitive MRI contrast agent, MnPyC3A-BPEN, was prepared, characterized, and applied in imaging experiments to detect glucose-stimulated zinc secretion (GSZS) from the mouse pancreas and prostate in vivo. Thermodynamic and kinetic stability tests showed that MnPyC3A-BPEN has superior kinetic inertness compared to GdDTPA, is less susceptible to transmetalation in the presence of excess Zn2+ ions, and less susceptible to transchelation by albumin. In comparison with other gadolinium-based zinc sensors bearing a single zinc binding moiety, MnPyC3A-BPEN appears to be a reliable alternative for imaging β-cell function in the pancreas and glucose-stimulated zinc secretion from the prostate.

Abstract
We report a detailed investigation of the coordination properties of macrocyclic lanthanide complexes containing a 3,6,10,13-tetraaza-1,8(2,6)-dipyridinacyclotetradecaphane scaffold functionalized with four acetamide pendant arms. The X-ray structures of the complexes with the large Ln3+ ions (La and Sm) display 12- and 10-coordinated metal ions, where the coordination sphere is fulfilled by the six N atoms of the macrocycle, the four O atoms of the acetamide pendants, and a bidentate nitrate anion in the La3+ complex. The analogous Yb3+ complex presents, however, a 9-coordinated metal ion because one of the acetamide pendant arms remains uncoordinated. 1H NMR studies indicate that the 10-coordinated form is present in solution throughout the lanthanide series from La to Tb, while the smaller lanthanides form 9-coordinated species. 1H and 89Y NMR studies confirm the presence of this structural change because the two species are present in solution. Analysis of the 1H chemical shifts observed for the Tb3+ complex confirms its D2 symmetry in aqueous solution and evidences a highly rhombic magnetic susceptibility tensor. The acetamide resonances of the Pr3+ and Tb3+ complexes provided sizable paraCEST effects, as demonstrated by the corresponding Z-spectra recorded at different temperatures and studies on tube phantoms recorded at 22 °C.

Abstract
The stability constants of Mn2+ complexes with ligands containing a trans-1,2-cyclobutanediamine spacer functionalized with picolinate and/or carboxylate functions were determined using potentiometric titrations (25 °C, 0.1 M KCl). The stability constant of the complex with a hexadentate ligand containing four acetate groups (L14-, log KMnL = 10.26) is improved upon replacing one (L24-, log KMnL = 14.71) or two (L34-, log KMnL = 15.81) carboxylate groups with picolinates. The [Mn(L1)]2- complex contains a water molecule coordinated to the metal ion in aqueous solutions, as evidenced by 1H NMRD studies and 17O chemical shifts and transverse relaxation rates. The 1H relaxivities determined at 60 MHz (3.3 and 2.4 mM-1 s-1 at 25 and 37 °C, respectively) are comparable to those of monohydrated complexes such as [Mn(edta)]2-. The exchange rate of the inner-sphere water molecule (k = 248 × 106 s-1) is slightly lower than that of the edta4- analogue. DFT calculations (M11/def2-TZVP) suggest that the water exchange reaction follows a dissociatively activated mechanism, providing activation parameters in reasonably good agreement with the experimental data. DFT calculations also show that the 17O hyperfine coupling constant A/ℏ is affected slightly by changes in the Mn-Owater distance and the orientation of the water molecule with respect to the Mn-O vector.

Abstract
Molecular magnetic resonance (MR) imaging utilizes molecular probes to provide added biochemical or cellular information to what can already be achieved with anatomical and functional MR imaging. This review provides an overview of molecular MR and focuses specifically on molecular MR contrast agents that provide contrast by shortening the T1 time. We describe the requirements for a successful molecular MR contrast agent and the challenges for clinical translation. The review highlights work from the last 5 years and places an emphasis on new contrast agents that have been validated in multiple preclinical models. Applications of molecular MR include imaging of inflammation, fibrosis, fibrogenesis, thromboembolic disease, and cancers. Molecular MR is positioned to move beyond detection of disease to the quantitative staging of disease and measurement of treatment response.

Abstract
We report the Mn(II) complexes with two pyclen-based ligands (pyclen = 3,6,9,15-tetraazabicyclo[9.3.1]pentadeca-1(15),11,13-triene) functionalized with acetate pendant arms at either positions 3,6 (3,6-PC2A) or 3,9 (3,9-PC2A) of the macrocyclic fragment. The 3,6-PC2A ligand was synthesized in five steps from pyclen oxalate by protecting one of the secondary amine groups of pyclen using Alloc protecting chemistry. The complex with 3,9-PC2A is characterized by a higher thermodynamic stability [log KMnL = 17.09(2)] than the 3,6-PC2A analogue [log KMnL = 15.53(1); 0.15 M NaCl]. Both complexes contain a water molecule coordinated to the metal ion, which results in relatively high 1H relaxivities (r1p = 2.72 and 2.91 mM-1 s-1 for the complexes with 3,6-PC2A and 3,9-PC2A, respectively, at 25 °C and 0.49 T). The coordinated water molecule displays fast exchange kinetics with the bulk in both cases; the rates (kex298) are 140 × 106 and 126 × 106 s-1 for [Mn(3,6-PC2A)(H2O)] and [Mn(3,9-PC2A)(H2O)], respectively. The two complexes were found to be remarkably inert with respect to their dissociation, with half-lives of 63 and 21 h, respectively, at pH = 7.4 in the presence of excess Cu(II). The r1p values recorded in blood serum remain constant at least over a period of 120 h. Cyclic voltammetry experiments show irreversible oxidation features shifted to higher potentials with respect to [Mn(EDTA)(H2O)]2- (H4EDTA = ethylenediaminetetraacetic acid) and [Mn(PhDTA)(H2O)]2- (H4PhDTA = phenylenediamine-N,N,N',N'-tetraacetic acid), indicating that the PC2A complexes reported here have a lower tendency to stabilize Mn(III). The superoxide dismutase activity of the Mn(II) complexes was tested using the xanthine/xanthine oxidase/p-nitro blue tetrazolium chloride assay at pH = 7.8. The Mn(II) complexes of 3,6-PC2A and 3,9-PC2A are capable of assisting decomposition of the superoxide anion radical. The kinetic rate constant of the complex of 3,9-PC2A is smaller by 1 order of magnitude than that of 3,6-PC2A.

Abstract
Paramagnetic chemical exchange saturation transfer (paraCEST) agents are well-suited for imaging tissue pH because the basis of CEST, chemical exchange, is inherently sensitive to pH. Several previous pH-sensitive paraCEST agents were based on an exchanging Ln3+ -bound water molecule as the CEST antenna but this design often added additional line-broadening to the bulk water signal due to T2 exchange. We report herein a pH-sensitive paraCEST agent that lacks an inner-sphere water molecule but contains one Ln-bound -OH group for CEST activation. The Yb3+ complex, Yb(1), displayed a single, highly shifted CEST peak originating from the exchangeable Yb-OH proton, the frequency of which changed over the biologically relevant pH range. CEST images of phantoms ranging in pH from 6 to 8 demonstrate the potential of this agent for imaging pH. Initial rodent imaging studies showed that Gd(1) remains in the vascular system much longer than anticipated but is cleared slowly via renal filtration.

NANOMATERIALS (BASEL, SWITZERLAND) 2020; 10:E2276. [PMID: 33212974 PMCID: PMC7698489 DOI: 10.3390/nano10112276] [Citation(s) in RCA: 31] [Impact Index Per Article: 7.8] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 09/29/2020] [Revised: 11/05/2020] [Accepted: 11/12/2020] [Indexed: 12/13/2022]
Abstract
Bioinspired nanomaterials are ideal components for nanomedicine, by virtue of their expected biocompatibility or even complete lack of toxicity. Natural and artificial melanin-based nanoparticles (MNP), including polydopamine nanoparticles (PDA NP), excel for their extraordinary combination of additional optical, electronic, chemical, photophysical, and photochemical properties. Thanks to these features, melanin plays an important multifunctional role in the design of new platforms for nanomedicine where this material works not only as a mechanical support or scaffold, but as an active component for imaging, even multimodal, and simple or synergistic therapy. The number of examples of bio-applications of MNP increased dramatically in the last decade. Here, we review the most recent ones, focusing on the multiplicity of functions that melanin performs in theranostics platforms with increasing complexity. For the sake of clarity, we start analyzing briefly the main properties of melanin and its derivative as well as main natural sources and synthetic methods, moving to imaging application from mono-modal (fluorescence, photoacoustic, and magnetic resonance) to multi-modal, and then to mono-therapy (drug delivery, anti-oxidant, photothermal, and photodynamic), and finally to theranostics and synergistic therapies, including gene- and immuno- in combination to photothermal and photodynamic. Nanomedicine aims not only at the treatment of diseases, but also to their prevention, and melanin in nature performs a protective action, in the form of nanopigment, against UV-Vis radiations and oxidants. With these functions being at the border between nanomedicine and cosmetics nanotechnology, recently examples of applications of artificial MNP in cosmetics are increasing, paving the road to the birth of the new science of nanocosmetics. In the last part of this review, we summarize and discuss these important recent results that establish evidence of the interconnection between nanomedicine and cosmetics nanotechnology.

Abstract
5-Fluorouracil (5-FU) is one of the most prescribed drugs and the major component of chemotherapy for the treatment of colorectal cancer. In this study, we have designed arginine-functionalized manganese oxide nanocuboids (Arg@MNCs) for the effective delivery of 5-FU to colon cancer cells. Arginine was used as multifunctional agent to provide stability to MNCs, achieve high drug loading, control the release of loaded drug, and improve delivery to cancer cells. The synthesized Arg@MNCs were characterized by DLS, TEM, XRD, FTIR, XPS, TGA, and VSM analysis. The structural and morphological analysis by TEM showed cuboid-shaped MNCs with average particle size ∼15 nm. Biodegradation studies indicated that the Arg@MNCs were degraded at endolyosomal pH in 24 h while remaining stable at physiological pH. Hemolytic toxicity studies revealed the safety and nontoxic nature of the prepared MNCs. 5-FU-loaded Arg@MNCs showed significant control over the release of 5-FU, decrease in the hemolytic toxicity of loaded 5-FU but higher in vitro anticancer activity against HCT 116 and SW480 human colon cancer cells. Importantly, both the bare MNCs and Arg@MNCs showed excellent T1 and T2MR relaxivity under 3.0 T MRI scanner. Thus, the nanostructures developed in this study, i.e., 5-FU-Arg@MNCs could overcome the issues of both MNCs (stability) and 5-FU (low drug loading and nonspecificity) and may be used as a multifunctional theranostic nanocarrier for colon cancer treatment.

Abstract
Paramagnetic relaxation enhancement (PRE) is the current strategy of choice for enhancing magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) contrast and for accelerating MRI acquisition schemes. Yet, debates regarding lanthanides' biocompatibility and PRE-effect on MRI signal quantification have raised the need for alternative strategies for relaxation enhancement. Herein, we show an approach for shortening the spin-lattice relaxation time (T1) of fluoride-based nanocrystals (NCs) that are used for in vivo 19F-MRI, by inducing crystal defects in their solid-crystal core. By utilizing a phosphate-based rather than a carboxylate-based capping ligand for the synthesis of CaF2 NCs, we were able to induce grain boundary defects in the NC lattice. The obtained defects led to a 10-fold shorter T1 of the NCs' fluorides. Such paramagnetic-free relaxation enhancement of CaF2 NCs, gained without affecting either their size or their colloidal characteristics, improved 4-fold the obtained 19F-MRI signal-to-noise ratio, allowing their use, in vivo, with enhanced hotspot MRI sensitivity.

Abstract
Background Recent studies have validated and confirmed the great potential of nanoscale metal-organic framework (NMOF) in the biomedical field, especially in improving the efficiency of cancer diagnosis and therapy. However, most previous studies only utilized either the metal cluster or the organic ligand of the NMOF for cancer treatments and merely reported limited theranostic functions, which may not be optimized. As a highly designable and easily functionalized material, prospective rational design offers a powerful way to extract the maximum benefit from NMOF for cancer theranostic applications. Materials and Methods A NMOF based on hafnium (Hf) cluster and Mn(III)-porphyrin ligand was rational designed and synthesized as a high-performance multifunctional theranostic agent. The folic acid (FA) was modified on the NMOF surface to enhance the cancer targeting efficacy. The proposed “all-in-one” FA-Hf-Mn-NMOF (fHMNM) was characterized and identified using various analytical techniques. Then, in vitro and in vivo studies were performed to further explore the effects of fHMNM both as the magnetic resonance imaging (MRI)/computed tomography (CT)/photoacoustic imaging (PAI) contrast agent and as the photothermal therapy (PTT)/radiotherapy (RT) agent. Results A tumour targeting multifunctional fHMNM was successfully synthesized with high performance for MRI/CT/PAI enhancements and image-guided PTT/RT synergistic therapy properties. Compared with the current clinical CT and MR contrast agents, the X-ray attenuation and T1 relaxation rate of this integrated nanosystem increased 1.7-fold and 3–5-fold, respectively. More importantly, the catalase-like Mn(III)-porphyrin ligand can decompose H2O2 into O2 in tumour microenvironments to improve the synergistic treatment efficiency of PTT and RT. Significant tumour growth inhibition was achieved in mouse cancer models without obvious damage to the other organs. Conclusion This work highlights the potential of fHMNM as an easily designable material for biomedical applications, could be an effective tool for in vivo detection and subsequent treatment of tumour.

Abstract
We present two ligands containing a N-ethyl-4-(trifluoromethyl)benzenesulfonamide group attached to either a 6,6'-(azanediylbis(methylene))dipicolinic acid unit (H3DPASAm) or a 2,2'-(1,4,7-triazonane-1,4-diyl)diacetic acid macrocyclic platform (H3NO2ASAm). These ligands were designed to provide a pH-dependent relaxivity response upon complexation with Mn2+ in aqueous solution. The protonation constants of the ligands and the stability constants of the Mn2+ complexes were determined using potentiometric titrations complemented by spectrophotometric experiments. The deprotonations of the sulfonamide groups of the ligands are characterized by protonation constants of log KiH = 10.36 and 10.59 for DPASAm3- and HNO2ASAm2-, respectively. These values decrease dramatically to log KiH = 6.43 and 5.42 in the presence of Mn2+, because of the coordination of the negatively charged sulfonamide groups to the metal ion. The higher log KiH value in [Mn(DPASAm)]- is related to the formation of a seven-coordinate complex, while the metal ion in [Mn(NO2ASAm)]- is six-coordinated. The X-ray crystal structure of Na[Mn(DPASAm)(H2O)]·2H2O confirms the formation of a seven-coordinate complex, where the coordination environment is fulfilled by the donor atoms of the two picolinate groups, the amine N atom, the N atom of the sulfonamide group, and a coordinated water molecule. The lower conditional stability of the [Mn(NO2ASAm)]- complex and the lower protonation constant of the sulfonamide group results in complex dissociation at relatively high pH (<7.0). However, protonation of the sulfonamide group in [Mn(DPASAm)]- falls into the physiologically relevant pH window and causes a significant increase in relaxivity from r1p = 3.8 mM-1 s-1 at pH 9.0 to r1p = 8.9 mM-1 s-1 at pH 4.0 (10 MHz, 25 °C).

Abstract
Nowadays, magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) is the first diagnostic imaging modality for numerous indications able to provide anatomical information with high spatial resolution through the use of magnetic fields and gradients. Indeed, thanks to the characteristic relaxation time of each tissue, it is possible to distinguish between healthy and pathological ones. However, the need to have brighter images to increase differences and catch important diagnostic details has led to the use of contrast agents (CAs). Among them, Gadolinium-based CAs (Gd-CAs) are routinely used in clinical MRI practice. During these last years, FDA highlighted many risks related to the use of Gd-CAs such as nephrotoxicity, heavy allergic effects, and, recently, about the deposition within the brain. These alerts opened a debate about the opportunity to formulate Gd-CAs in a different way but also to the use of alternative and safer compounds to be administered, such as manganese- (Mn-) based agents. In this review, the physical principle behind the role of relaxivity and the T1 boosting will be described in terms of characteristic correlation times and inner and outer spheres. Then, the recent advances in the entrapment of Gd-CAs within nanostructures will be analyzed in terms of relaxivity boosting obtained without the chemical modification of CAs as approved in the chemical practice. Finally, a critical evaluation of the use of manganese-based CAs will be illustrated as an alternative ion to Gd due to its excellent properties and endogenous elimination pathway.

Abstract
Owing to the increasing importance of manganese(II) complexes in the field of magnetic resonance imaging (MRI), large efforts have been devoted to find an appropriate ligand for Mn(II) ion encapsulation by providing balance between the seemingly contradictory requirements (i.e., thermodynamic stability and kinetic inertness vs low ligand denticity enabling water molecule(s) to be coordinated in its metal center). Among these ligands, a large number of pyridine or pyridol based open-chain and macrocyclic chelators have been investigated so far. As a next step in the development of these chelators, 15-pyN3O2Ph and its transition metal complexes were synthesized and characterized using established methods. The 15-pyN3O2Ph ligand incorporates both pyridine and ortho-phenylene units to decrease ligand flexibility. The thermodynamic properties, protonation and stability constants, were determined using pH-potentiometry; the solid-state structures of two protonation states of the free ligand and its manganese complex were obtained by single crystal X-ray diffractometry. The results show a seven-coordinate metal center with two water molecules in the first coordination sphere. The longitudinal relaxivity of [Mn(15-pyN3O2Ph)]2+ was found to be 5.16 mM-1 s-1 at 0.49 T (298 K). Furthermore, the r2p value of 11.72 mM-1 s-1 (0.49 T), which is doubled at 1.41 T field, suggests that design of this Mn(II) complex does achieve some characteristics required for contrast imaging. In addition, 17O NMR measurements were performed in order to access the microscopic parameters governing this key feature (e.g., water exchange rate). Finally, manganese complexes of ligands with analogous polyaza macrocyclic scaffold have been investigated as low molecular weight Mn(CAT) mimics. Here, we report the H2O2 disproportionation study of [Mn(15-pyN3O2Ph)]2+ to demonstrate the versatility of this ligand scaffold as well.

Abstract
In this communication, a paramagnetic bifunctional manganese(ii) chelate ([Mn(Dopa-EDTA)]2-) containing a catechol group is designed and synthesized. The catechol can bind iron ions on the surface of superparamagnetic iron oxide (SPIO) nanocrystals to form core-shell nanoparticles. Both 4 and 7 nm SPIO@[Mn(Dopa-EDTA)]2- show good water solubility, single-crystal dispersion, and low cytotoxicity. The study of the interplay between the longitudinal and transverse relaxation revealed that 4 nm SPIO@[Mn(Dopa-EDTA)]2- with lower r 2/r 1 = 1.75 at 0.5 T tends to be a perfect T 1 contrast agent while 7 nm SPIO@[Mn(Dopa-EDTA)]2- with a higher r 2/r 1 = 15.0 at 3.0 T tends to be a T 2 contrast agent. Interestingly, 4 nm SPIO@[Mn(Dopa-EDTA)]2- with an intermediate value of r 2/r 1 = 5.26 at 3.0 T could act as T 1-T 2 dual-modal contrast agent. In vivo imaging with the 4 nm SPIO@[Mn(Dopa-EDTA)]2- nanoparticle shows unique imaging features: (1) long-acting vascular imaging and different signal intensity changes between the liver parenchyma and blood vessels with the CEMRA sequence; (2) the synergistic contrast enhancement of hepatic imaging with the T 1WI and T 2WI sequence. In summary, these Fe/Mn hybrid core-shell nanoparticles, with their ease of synthesis, good biocompatibility, and synergistic contrast enhancement ability, may provide a useful method for tissue and vascular MR imaging.

Abstract
Recently, Mn(II)-based T1-weighted magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) contrast agents (CAs) have been explored widely for cancer diagnosis. However, the "always-on" properties and poor excretability of the conventional Mn(II)-based CAs leads to high background signals and unsatisfactory clearance from the body. Here, we report an "in situ three-dimensional to two-dimensional (3D-to-2D) transformation" method to prepare novel excretable 2D manganese-based layered silicates (Mn-LSNs) with extremely high signal-to-noise for tumor-specific MR imaging for the first time. Our observations combined with density functional theory (DFT) calculations reveal that 3D metal (Mn, Fe, Co) oxide nanoparticles are initially formed from the molecular precursor solution and then in situ transform into 2D metal (Mn, Fe, Co)-based layered silicates triggered by the addition of tetraethyl orthosilicate, which provides a time-saving and versatile way to prepare novel 2D silicate nanomaterials. The unique ion-exchangeable capacity and high host layer charge density endow Mn-LSNs with an "ON/OFF" pH/GSH stimuli-activatable T1 relaxivity with superb high signal-to-noise (640-, 1200-fold for slightly acidic and reductive changes, respectively). Further in vivo MR imaging reveals that Mn-LSNs exhibit a continuously rapid T1-MRI signal enhancement in tumor tissue and no visible signal enhancement in normal tissue, indicating an excellent tumor-specific imaging. In addition, Mn-LSNs exhibit a rapid excretion from the mouse body in 24 h and invisible organ toxicity, which could help to solve the critical intractable degradation issue of conventional inorganic CAs. Moreover, the tumor microenvironment (pH/GSH/H2O2) specific degradability of Mn-LSNs could help to improve the penetration depth of particles into the tumor parenchyma. Developing this novel Mn-LSNs contrast agent, together with the already demonstrated capacity of layered silicates for drug and gene delivery, provides opportunities for future cancer theranostics.

Modulating the Properties of Fe(III) Macrocyclic MRI Contrast Agents by Appending Sulfonate or Hydroxyl Groups. Molecules 2020; 25:molecules25102291.

Abstract
Complexes of Fe(III) that contain a triazacyclononane (TACN) macrocycle, two pendant hydroxyl groups, and a third ancillary pendant show promise as MRI contrast agents. The ancillary group plays an important role in tuning the solution relaxivity of the Fe(III) complex and leads to large changes in MRI contrast enhancement in mice. Two new Fe(III) complexes, one with a third coordinating hydroxypropyl pendant, Fe(L2), and one with an anionic non-coordinating sulfonate group, Fe(L1)(OH2), are compared. Both complexes have a deprotonated hydroxyl group at neutral pH and electrode potentials representative of a stabilized trivalent iron center. The r1 relaxivity of the Fe(L1)(OH2) complex is double that of the saturated complex, Fe(L2), at 4.7 T, 37 °C in buffered solutions. However, variable-temperature 17O-NMR experiments show that the inner-sphere water of Fe(L1)(OH2) does not exchange rapidly with bulk water under these conditions. The pendant sulfonate group in Fe(L1)(OH2) confers high solubility to the complex in comparison to Fe(L2) or previously studied analogues with benzyl groups. Dynamic MRI studies of the two complexes showed major differences in their pharmacokinetics clearance rates compared to an analogue containing a benzyl ancillary group. Rapid blood clearance and poor binding to serum albumin identify Fe(L1)(OH2) for development as an extracellular fluid contrast agent.

Abstract
Contrast-enhanced magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) is an indispensable tool for diagnostic medicine. However, safety concerns related to gadolinium in commercial MRI contrast agents have emerged in recent years. For patients suffering from severe renal impairment, there is an important unmet medical need to perform contrast-enhanced MRI without gadolinium. There are also concerns over the long-term effects of retained gadolinium within the general patient population. Demand for gadolinium-free MRI contrast agents is driving a new wave of inorganic chemistry innovation as researchers explore paramagnetic transition-metal complexes as potential alternatives. Furthermore, advances in personalized care making use of molecular-level information have motivated inorganic chemists to develop MRI contrast agents that can detect pathologic changes at the molecular level. Recent studies have highlighted how reaction-based modulation of transition-metal paramagnetism offers a highly effective mechanism to achieve MRI contrast enhancement that is specific to biochemical processes. This Viewpoint highlights how recent advances in transition-metal chemistry are leading the way for a new generation of MRI contrast agents.

Abstract
Several radionuclides of the transition metal manganese are known and accessible. Three of them, 51Mn, 52mMn, and 52gMn, are positron emitters that are potentially interesting for positron emission tomography (PET) applications and, thus, have caught the interest of the radiochemical/radiopharmaceutical and nuclear medicine communities. This mini‐review provides an overview of the production routes and physical properties of these radionuclides. For medical imaging, the focus is on the longer‐living 52gMn and its application for the radiolabelling of molecules and other entities exhibiting long biological half‐lives, the imaging of manganese‐dependent biological processes, and the development of bimodal PET/magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) probes in combination with paramagnetic natMn as a contrast agent.

Abstract
The heptadentate ligand L was shown to form an extremely stable Gd complex at neutral pH with a pGd value of 18.4 at pH 7.4. The X-ray crystal structures of the complexes formed with Gd and Tb displayed two very different coordination behaviors being, respectively, octa- and nonacoordinated. The relaxometric properties of the Gd complex were studied by field-dependent relaxivity measurements at various temperatures and by 17 O NMR spectroscopy. The pH-dependence of the longitudinal relaxivity profile indicated large changes around neutral pH leading to a very large value of 10.1 mm-1 ⋅s-1 (60 MHz, 298 K) at pH 4.7. The changes were attributed to an increase of the hydration number from one water molecule in basic conditions to two at acidic pH. A similar trend was observed for the luminescence of the Eu complex, confirming the change in hydration state. DOSY experiments were performed on the Lu analogue, pointing to the absence of dimers in solution in the considered pH range. A breathing mode of the complex was postulated, which was further supported by 1 H and 31 P NMR spectroscopy of the Yb complex at varying pH and was finally modeled by DFT calculations.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES The goals of this study were to compare the efficacy of the new manganese-based magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) contrast agent Mn-PyC3A to the commercial gadolinium-based agents Gd-DOTA and to Gd-EOB-DTPA to detect tumors in murine models of breast cancer and metastatic liver disease, respectively, and to quantify the fractional excretion and elimination of Mn-PyC3A in rats. METHODS T1-weighted contrast-enhanced MRI with 0.1 mmol/kg Mn-PyC3A was compared with 0.1 mmol/kg Gd-DOTA in a breast cancer mouse model (n = 8) and to 0.025 mmol/kg Gd-EOB-DTPA in a liver metastasis mouse model (n = 6). The fractional excretion, 1-day biodistribution, and 7-day biodistribution in rats after injection of 2.0 mmol/kg [Mn]Mn-PyC3A or Gd-DOTA were quantified by Mn gamma counting or Gd elemental analysis. Imaging data were compared with a paired t test; biodistribution data were compared with an unpaired t test. RESULTS The postinjection-preinjection increases in tumor-to-muscle contrast-to-noise ratio (ΔCNR) 3 minutes after injection of Mn-PyC3A and Gd-DOTA (mean ± standard deviation) were 17 ± 3.8 and 20 ± 4.4, respectively (P = 0.34). Liver-to-tumor ΔCNR values at 8 minutes postinjection of Mn-PyC3A and Gd-EOB-DTPA were 28 ± 9.0 and 48 ± 23, respectively (P = 0.11). Mn-PyC3A is eliminated with 85% into the urine and 15% into the feces after administration to rats. The percentage of the injected doses (%ID) of Mn and Gd recovered in tissues after 1 day were 0.32 ± 0.12 and 0.57 ± 0.12, respectively (P = 0.0030), and after 7 days were 0.058 ± 0.051 and 0.19 ± 0.052, respectively (P < 0.0001). CONCLUSIONS Mn-PyC3A provides comparable tumor contrast enhancement to Gd-DOTA in a mouse breast cancer model and is more completely eliminated than Gd-DOTA; partial hepatobiliary elimination of Mn-PyC3A enables conspicuous delayed phase visualization of liver metastases.

Abstract
The complex etiology of neurodegeneration continues to stifle efforts to develop effective therapeutics. New agents elucidating key pathways causing neurodegeneration might serve to increase our understanding and potentially lead to improved treatments. Here, we demonstrate that a water-soluble manganese(II) texaphyrin (MMn) is a suitable magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) contrast agent for detecting larger amyloid beta constructs. The imaging potential of MMn was inferred on the basis of in vitro studies and in vivo detection in Alzheimer's disease C. elegans models via MRI and ICP-MS. In vitro antioxidant- and cellular-based assays provide support for the notion that this porphyrin analog shows promise as a therapeutic agent able to mitigate the oxidative and nitrative toxic effects considered causal in neurodegeneration. The present report marks the first elaboration of an MRI-active metalloantioxidant that confers diagnostic and therapeutic benefit in Alzheimer's disease models without conjugation of a radioisotope, targeting moiety, or therapeutic payload.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Despite the growing concern about the safety of gadolinium-based contrast agents (GBCAs), they are still the most commonly used. Ferumoxytol, as an off-label alternative MRI contrast agent, cannot be administered by a rapid bolus for dynamic susceptibility contrast perfusion-weighted imaging (DSC-PWI). PURPOSE To assess the feasibility of iron sucrose (IS) as a contrast agent for MR angiography (MRA) and DSC-PWI. STUDY TYPE Prospective animal model. ANIMAL MODEL Thirty-six normal rats (16 for MRA, 20 for biocompability tests) and 36 occlusion of the middle cerebral artery (MCAO) model rats. FIELD STRENGTH/SEQUENCE 3.0T; head and neck angiography, using a fast spoiled gradient-recalled-echo (FSPGR) sequence and DSC-MRI using echo planar imaging(EPI) sequence. ASSESSMENT MRA was performed on normal rats to examine the signal-to-noise ratio (SNR) and contrast-to-noise ratio (CNR) of different doses of IS. DSC-PWI was performed on MCAO rats at 0, 24, 48, and 72 hours postreperfusion to investigate the lesion detectability of IS. Arterial spin labeling (ASL) and DSC-PWI enhanced by GBCAs were conducted on MCAO rats as controls. STATISTICAL TESTS Kruskal-Wallis test was used to compare qualitative assessment. One-way analysis of variance (ANOVA) was used to compare the parametric data. Pearson's r values were evaluated between relative cerebral blood flow(rCBF)-ASL, rCBF-DSCIS , and rCBF obtained from DSC-PWI enhanced by GBCA. RESULTS The mean SNR and CNR of the common carotid artery at doses of 10 mg Fe/kg of IS were comparable with the standard dose of GBCAs (SNR: 68.04 ± 12.55 vs. 67.72 ± 14.66; CNR: 23.78 ± 7.21vs. 21.63 ± 6.83). In MCAO rat models, rCBF and relative cerebral blood volume (rCBV) of ipsilateral striatum declined (0.72 ± 0.14, 0.86 ± 0.11) with prolonged relative mean transit time (rMTT) and relative time-to-peak (rTTP) (1.27 ± 0.24, 1.07 ± 0.03) following occlusion. Hyperperfusion was observed in all rats at 48 and 72 hours postreperfusion, in 4/6 rats at 24 hours postreperfusion for IS-mediated DSC-PWI. DATA CONCLUSION IS may be an effective contrast agent for both MRA and DSC-PWI in ischemic stroke models. LEVEL OF EVIDENCE 1 TECHNICAL EFFICACY STAGE: 1 J. Magn. Reson. Imaging 2020;52:836-849.

Picolinate-appended tacn complexes for bimodal imaging: Radiolabeling, relaxivity, photophysical and electrochemical studies. J Inorg Biochem 2020; 205:110978. [PMID: 31951911 DOI: 10.1016/j.jinorgbio.2019.110978] [Citation(s) in RCA: 2] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.5] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 09/16/2019] [Revised: 12/11/2019] [Accepted: 12/24/2019] [Indexed: 10/25/2022]
Abstract
Based on our previous works involving two 1,4,7-triazacyclononane (tacn)-based ligands Hno2py1pa (1-Picolinic acid-4,7-bis(pyridin-2-ylmethyl)-1,4,7-triazacyclononane) and Hno1pa (1-Picolinic acid-1,4,7-triazacyclononane), we report here the synthesis of analogues bearing picolinate-based π-conjugated ILCT (Intra-Ligand Charge Transfer) transition antenna (HL1, HL2), using regiospecific N-functionalization of the tacn skeleton and their related transition metal complexes (e.g. Cu2+, Zn2+ and Mn2+). Coordination properties as well as their photophysical and electrochemical properties were investigated in order to quantify the impact of such antenna on the luminescent or relaxometric properties of the complexes. The spectroscopic properties of the targeted ligands and metal complexes have been studied using UV-Vis absorption and fluorescence spectrocopies. While the zinc complex formed with HL1 possesses a moderate quantum yield of 5%, complexation of Cu2+ led to an extinction of the luminescence putatively attributed to a photo-induced electron transfer, as supported by spectroscopic and electrochemical evidences. The [Mn(L2)]+ complex is characterized by a fluorescence quantum yield close to 8% in CH2Cl2. The potential interest of such systems as bimodal probes has been assessed from radiolabeling experiments conducted on HL1 and 64Cu2+ as well as confocal microscopy analyses and from relaxometric studies carried out on the cationic [Mn(L2)]+ complex. These results showed that HL1 can be used for radiolabeling, with a radiochemical conversion of 40% in 15 min at 100 °C. Finally, the relaxivity values obtained for [Mn(L2)]+, r1p = 4.80 mM-1·s-1 and r2p = 8.72 mM-1·s-1, make the Mn(II) complex an ideal candidate as a probe for Magnetic Resonance Imaging.

Abstract
Scandium-44 has emerged as an attractive, novel PET radioisotope with ideal emission properties and half-life (t 1/2 = 3.97 h, E mean β+ = 632 keV) well matched to the pharmacokinetics of small molecules, peptides and small biologics. Conjugates of the current gold-standard chelator for 44Sc, 1,4,7,10-tetraaza-cyclododecane-1,4,7,10-tetraacetic acid (DOTA), require heating to achieve radiochemical complexation, limiting application of this isotope in conjunction with temperature-sensitive biologics. To establish Sc(iii) isotopes as broadly applicable tools for nuclear medicine, development of alternative bifunctional chelators is required. To address this need, we characterized the Sc(iii)-chelation properties of the small-cavity triaza-macrocycle-based, picolinate-functionalized chelator H3mpatcn. Spectroscopic and radiochemical studies establish the [Sc(mpatcn)] complex as kinetically inert and appropriate for biological applications. A proof-of-concept bifunctional conjugate targeting the prostate-specific membrane antigen (PSMA), picaga-DUPA, chelates 44Sc to form 44Sc(picaga)-DUPA at room temperature with an apparent molar activity of 60 MBq μmol-1 and formation of inert RRR-Λ and SSS-Δ-twist isomers. Sc(picaga)-DUPA exhibits a K i of 1.6 nM for PSMA, comparable to the 18F-based imaging probe DCFPyL (K i = 1.1 nM) currently in phase 3 clinical trials for imaging prostate cancer. Finally, we successfully employed 44Sc(picaga)-DUPA to image PSMA-expressing tumors in a preclinical mouse model, establishing the picaga bifunctional chelator as an optimal choice for the 44Sc PET nuclide.

Fe-HBED Analogs: A Promising Class of Iron-Chelate Contrast Agents for Magnetic Resonance Imaging. CONTRAST MEDIA & MOLECULAR IMAGING 2019; 2019:8356931.

Abstract
Contrast-enhanced magnetic resonance imaging is an essential tool for disease diagnosis and management; all marketed clinical magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) contrast agents (CAs) are gadolinium (Gd) chelates and most are extracellular fluid (ECF) agents. After intravenous injection, these agents rapidly distribute to the extracellular space and are also characterized by low serum protein binding and predominant renal clearance. Gd is an abiotic element with no biological recycling processes; low levels of Gd have been detected in the central nervous system and bone long after administration. These observations have prompted interest in the development of new MRI contrast agents based on biotic elements such as iron (Fe); Fe-HBED (HBED = N,N′-bis(2-hydroxyphenyl)ethylenediamine-N,N′-diacetic acid), a coordinatively saturated iron chelate, is an attractive MRI CA platform suitable for modification to adjust relaxivity and biodistribution. Compared to the parent Fe-HBED, the Fe-HBED analogs reported here have lower serum protein binding and higher relaxivity as well as lower relative liver enhancement in mice, comparable to that of a representative gadolinium-based contrast agent (GBCA). Fe-HBED analogs are therefore a promising class of non-Gd ECF MRI CA.

Abstract
Materials possessing electron spin can shorten the T 1 relaxation times in magnetic resonance imaging (MRI). For example, gadolinium (Gd) complexes with seven f-orbital electrons are widely used as contrast agents in clinical applications. However, Gd has severe potential side effects, and thus metal-free alternatives are needed. Toward this end, we synthesized seven NO radicals consisting of a dioxa-azaspiro[4.5]decane framework having various substituents, DAD-X (X = methyl, ethyl, n-propyl, c-propyl, vinyl, phenyl, and 2-pyridyl), that functioned as metal-free MRI contrast agents. The relationship between (i) water-proton relaxivity and log P and (ii) reactivity for ascorbic acid and the spin density of the NO oxygen atom were established, which provided a basis for the rational design of practical metal-free contrast agents.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) is a well-established medical invention in modern medical technology diagnosis. It is a nondestructive, versatile, and sensitive technique with a high spatial resolution for medical diagnosis. However, MRI has some limitations in differentiating certain tissues, particularly tiny blood vessels, pathological to healthy tissues, specific tumors, and inflammatory conditions such as arthritis, atherosclerosis, and multiple sclerosis. The contrast agent (CA) assisted imaging is the best possible solution to resolve the limitations of MRI. METHOD The literature review was carried out using the keywords, "MRI, T1&T2 relaxation, MRI CAs, delivery and adverse effects, classification of CAs." The tools used for the literature search were PubMed, Scopus, and Google Scholar. RESULT AND DISCUSSION The literature findings focus on MRI technique, limitations, and possible solutions. Primarily, the review focuses on the mechanism of CAs in image formation with detailed explanations of T1 and T2 relaxations, the mechanism of the MRI-CA image formations. This review presents the adverse effects of CA as well as available marketed formulations and recent patents to extent complete information about the MRI-CA. CONCLUSION MRI generates detailed visual information of various tissues with high resolution and contrast. The proton present in the biological fluid plays a crucial role in MR image formation, and it is unable to distinguish pathological conditions in many cases. The CAs are the best solution to resolve the limitation by interacting with native protons. The present review discusses the mechanism of CAs in contrast enhancement and its broad classification with the latest literature. Furthermore, the article presents information about CA biodistribution and adverse effects. The review concludes with an appropriate solution for adverse effects and presents the future prospective for researchers to develop advanced formulations.

Abstract
A nanoplatform for magnetic resonance imaging guidance and oxygen self-supplementing photodynamic therapy (PDT) was constructed on the basis of a porous metal-organic framework (PCN-222(Mn)), which was built by simple Mn-porphyrin ligands and biocompatible Zr4+ ions. Because of the good dispersibility of Mn3+ in the open framework and the high water affinity of the channel, PCN-222(Mn) exhibits a high longitudinal relaxivity of ∼35.3 mM-1 s-1 (1.0 T). In addition, it shows good catalytic activity for the conversion of endogenous hydrogen peroxide into oxygen, thereby improving tumor hypoxia during photodynamic therapy. The intravenous injection of PCN-222(Mn) into tumor-bearing mice mode provided good T1-weighted contrast of the tumor site and effectively inhibited tumor growth upon a single-laser irradiation. The findings provide insights for the development of multifunctional theranostic nanoplatforms based on simple components.

Abstract
This article reviews the use of metal complexes as contrast agents (CA) and radiopharmaceuticals for the anatomical and functional imaging of the liver. The main focus was on two established imaging modalities: magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) and nuclear medicine, the latter including scintigraphy and positron emission tomography (PET). The review provides an overview on approved pharmaceuticals like Gd-based CA and 99mTc-based radiometal complexes, and also on novel agents such as 68Ga-based PET tracers. Metal complexes are presented by their imaging modality, with subsections focusing on their structure and mode of action. Uptake mechanisms, metabolism, and specificity are presented, in context with advantages and limitations of the diagnostic application and taking into account the respective imaging technique.

Abstract
Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) has received significant attention as the noninvasive diagnostic technique for complex diseases. Image-guided therapeutic strategy for diseases such as cancer has also been at the front line of biomedical research, thanks to the innovative MRI, enhanced by the prior delivery of contrast agents (CAs) into patients' bodies through injection. These CAs have contributed a great deal to the clinical utility of MRI but have been based on metal-containing compounds such as gadolinium, manganese, and iron oxide. Some of these CAs have led to cytotoxicities such as the incurable Nephrogenic Systemic Fibrosis (NSF), resulting in their removal from the market. On the other hand, CAs based on organic nitroxide radicals, by virtue of their structural composition, are metal free and without the aforementioned drawbacks. They also have improved biocompatibility, ease of functionalization, and long blood circulation times, and have been proven to offer tissue contrast enhancement with longitudinal relaxivities comparable with those for the metal-containing CAs. Thus, this Review highlights the recent progress in metal-based CAs and their shortcomings. In addition, the remarkable goals achieved by the organic nitroxide radical CAs in the enhancement of MR images have also been discussed extensively. The focal point of this Review is to emphasize or demonstrate the crucial need for transition into the use of organic nitroxide radicals-metal-free CAs-as against the metal-containing CAs, with the aim of achieving safer application of MRI for early disease diagnosis and image-guided therapy.

Accurate identification of myocardial viability after myocardial infarction with novel manganese chelate-based MR imaging. NMR IN BIOMEDICINE 2019; 32:e4158. [PMID: 31393647 DOI: 10.1002/nbm.4158] [Citation(s) in RCA: 3] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.6] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 10/31/2018] [Revised: 06/17/2019] [Accepted: 07/02/2019] [Indexed: 02/05/2023]
Abstract
We developed a novel manganese (Mn2+ ) chelate for magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) assessment of myocardial viability in acute and chronic myocardial infarct (MI) models, and compared it with Gadolinium-based delay enhancement MRI (Gd3+ -DEMRI) and histology. MI was induced in 14 rabbits by permanent occlusion of the left circumflex coronary artery. Gd3+ -DEMRI and Mn2+ chelate-based delayed enhancement MRI (Mn2+ chelate-DEMRI) were performed at 7 days (acute MI, n = 8) or 8 weeks (chronic MI, n = 6) after surgery with sequential injection of 0.15 mmol/kg Gd3+ and Mn2+ chelate. The biodistribution of Mn2+ in tissues and blood was measured at 1.5 and 24 h. Blood pressure, heart rate (HR), left ventricular (LV) function, and infarct fraction (IF) were analyzed, and IF was compared with the histology. The Mn2+ chelate group maintained a stable hemodynamic status during experiment. For acute and chronic MI, all rabbits survived without significant differences in HR or LV function before and after injection of Mn2+ chelate or Gd3+ (p > 0.05). Mn2+ chelate mainly accumulated in the kidney, liver, spleen, and heart at 1.5 h, with low tissue uptake and urine residue at 24 h after injection. In the acute MI group, there was no significant difference in IF between Mn2+ chelate-DEMRI and histology (22.92 ± 2.21% vs. 21.79 ± 2.25%, respectively, p = 0.87), while Gd3+ -DEMRI overestimated IF, as compared with histology (24.54 ± 1.73%, p = 0.04). In the chronic MI group, there was no significant difference in IF between the Mn2+ chelate-DEMRI, Gd3+ -DEMRI, and histology (29.50 ± 11.39%, 29.95 ± 9.40%, and 29.00 ± 10.44%, respectively, p > 0.05), and all three were well correlated (r = 0.92-0.96, p < 0.01). We conclude that the use of Mn2+ chelate-DEMRI is reliable for MI visualization and identifies acute MI more accurately than Gd3+ -DEMRI.

Abstract
Mn(II) has several favorable physicochemical characteristics and a good toxicity profile, which makes it a viable alternative to the Gd(III)-based MRI contrast agents currently used in clinics. Although many studies have been undertaken in the last 10 years, this is a field of investigation still in rapid and continuous development. This review aims to critically discuss the chemical and magnetic properties of Mn(II) compounds relevant as MRI probes, both small complexes and nanosystems containing a large number of metal centers, the possible approaches for optimizing their efficiency by understanding the role of various molecular parameters that control the relaxation processes, and the most important issues related to stability and kinetic inertness.

Abstract
Manganese-enhanced magnetic resonance imaging (MEMRI) enables tract tracing to follow neural pathways through axonal transport. However, the method is problematic because of the high local concentrations of Mn2+ involved. We developed a tetrananogel containing a dextran-manganese complex (Dex-Mn-Gel) and applied this nanogel to rats. MnCl2 (n = 5), Dex-Mn-Gel (n = 5), or saline control (n = 3) was injected into the left knee joint of the rats (n = 13). Inflammation and tissue alterations in the knee joint were also evaluated histologically. T1-weighted images were obtained on a 7 T MRI system 24 hours after the administration and compared across groups. The sciatic nerve in both legs and the surrounding musculature were used as regions of interest (ROI). No swelling was found in the knee joint infused with Dex-Mn-Gel, although prominent swelling of the knee joint was observed with MnCl2. White blood cells inside the knee joint tissue infused with the Dex-Mn-Gel were significantly less abundant (45%, P < .05) compared with the knee joints infused with MnCl2. Visualization of the sciatic nerve was significantly enhanced in rats treated with both forms of Mn2+ compared with controls (P < .01). This study is the first to attempt intra-articular administration of a manganese contrast agent into joint-capsule and demonstrate tract visualization. The Dex-Mn-Gel can be taken up by the nerve endings and reduce Mn2+ toxicity. Dex-Mn-Gel will provide a minimally invasive method for visualizing nerve tracts in vivo.

Abstract
There is an increasing need for gadolinium-free magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) contrast agents, particularly for patients suffering from chronic kidney disease. Using a cluster-nanocarrier combination, we have identified a novel approach to the design of biomedical nanomaterials and report here the criteria for the cluster and the nanocarrier and the advantages of this combination. We have investigated the relaxivity of the following manganese oxo clusters: the parent cluster Mn3(O2CCH3)6(Bpy)2 (1) where Bpy = 2,2'-bipyridine and three new analogs, Mn3(O2CC6H4CH═CH2)6(Bpy)2 (2), Mn3(O2CC(CH3)═CH2)6(Bpy)2 (3), and Mn3O(O2CCH3)6(Pyr)2 (4) where Pyr = pyridine. The parent cluster, Mn3(O2CCH3)6(Bpy)2 (1), had impressive relaxivity ( r1 = 6.9 mM-1 s-1, r2 = 125 mM-1 s-1) and was found to be the most amenable for the synthesis of cluster-nanocarrier nanobeads. Using the inverse miniemulsion polymerization technique (1) in combination with the hydrophilic monomer acrylamide, we synthesized nanobeads (∼125 nm diameter) with homogeneously dispersed clusters within the polyacrylamide matrix (termed Mn3Bpy-PAm). The nanobeads were surface-modified by co-polymerization with an amine-functionalized monomer. This enabled various postsynthetic modifications, for example, to attach a near-IR dye, Cyanine7, as well as a targeting agent. When evaluated as a potential multimodal MRI contrast agent, high relaxivity and contrast were observed with r1 = 54.4 mM-1 s-1 and r2 = 144 mM-1 s-1, surpassing T1 relaxivity of clinically used Gd-DTPA chelates as well as comparable T2 relaxivity to iron oxide microspheres. Physicochemical properties, cellular uptake, and impacts on cell viability were also investigated.
