Abstract
The kinetics of forming multifunctional nanostructures, such as nanotheranostic superstructures, is often highly protracted, involving macroscopic time scales and resulting in nanostructures that correspond to kinetically stable states rather than thermodynamic equilibrium. Predicting such kinetically stable nanostructures becomes a great challenge due to the widely different, relevant time scales that are implicated in the formation kinetics of nano-objects. We develop a methodology, integral of first-passage times from constrained simulations (IFS), to predict kinetically stable, planet-satellite nanotheranostic superstructures. The simulation results are consistent with our experimental observations. The developed methodology enables the exploration of time scales from molecular vibrations of 10-3 ns toward macroscopic scales, 1010 ns, which permits the rational design and prediction of kinetically stable nanotheranostic superstructures for applications in nanomedicine.

Abstract
Objectives We aimed to evaluate gadopiclenol, a newly developed extracellular nonspecific macrocyclic gadolinium-based contrast agent (GBCA) having high relaxivity properties, which was designed to increase lesion detection and characterization by magnetic resonance imaging. Methods We described the molecular structure of gadopiclenol and measured the r1 and r2 relaxivity properties at fields of 0.47 and 1.41 T in water and human serum. Nuclear magnetic relaxation dispersion profile measurements were performed from 0.24 mT to 7 T. Protonation and complexation constants were determined using pH-metric measurements, and we investigated the acid-assisted dissociation of gadopiclenol, gadodiamide, gadobutrol, and gadoterate at 37°C and pH 1.2. Applying the relaxometry technique (37°C, 0.47 T), we investigated the risk of dechelation of gadopiclenol, gadoterate, and gadodiamide in the presence of ZnCl2 (2.5 mM) and a phosphate buffer (335 mM). Pharmacokinetics studies of radiolabeled 153Gd-gadopiclenol were performed in Beagle dogs, and protein binding was measured in rats, dogs, and humans plasma and red blood cells. Results Gadopiclenol [gadolinium chelate of 2,2′,2″-(3,6,9-triaza-1(2,6)-pyridinacyclodecaphane-3,6,9-triyl)tris(5-((2,3-dihydroxypropyl)amino)-5-oxopentanoic acid); registry number 933983-75-6] is based on a pyclen macrocyclic structure. Gadopiclenol exhibited a very high relaxivity in water (r1 = 12.2 mM−1·s−1 at 1.41 T), and the r1 value in human serum at 37°C did not markedly change with increasing field (r1 = 12.8 mM−1·s−1 at 1.41 T and 11.6 mM−1·s−1 at 3 T). The relaxivity data in human serum did not indicate protein binding. The nuclear magnetic relaxation dispersion profile of gadopiclenol exhibited a high and stable relaxivity in a strong magnetic field. Gadopiclenol showed high kinetic inertness under acidic conditions, with a dissociation half-life of 20 ± 3 days compared with 4 ± 0.5 days for gadoterate, 18 hours for gadobutrol, and less than 5 seconds for gadodiamide and gadopentetate. The pharmacokinetic profile in dogs was typical of extracellular nonspecific GBCAs, showing distribution in the extracellular compartment and no metabolism. No protein binding was found in rats, dogs, and humans. Conclusions Gadopiclenol is a new extracellular and macrocyclic Gd chelate that exhibited high relaxivity, no protein binding, and high kinetic inertness. Its pharmacokinetic profile in dogs was similar to that of other extracellular nonspecific GBCAs.

Abstract
Magnetic particle imaging (MPI) is a new imaging modality with the potential for high-resolution imaging while retaining the noninvasive nature of other current modalities such as magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) and positron emission tomography (PET). It is able to track location and quantities of special superparamagnetic iron oxide nanoparticles without tracing any background signal. MPI utilizes the unique, intrinsic aspects of the nanoparticles: how they react in the presence of the magnetic field, and the subsequent turning off of the field. The current group of nanoparticles that are used in MPI are usually commercially available for MRI. Special MPI tracers are in development by many groups that utilize an iron-oxide core encompassed by various coatings. These tracers would solve the current obstacles by altering the size and material of the nanoparticles to what is required by MPI. In this review, the theory behind and the development of these tracers are discussed. In addition, applications such as cell tracking, oncology imaging, neuroimaging, and vascular imaging, among others, stemming from the implementation of MPI into the standard are discussed.

Evaluation of theranostic perspective of gold-silica nanoshell for cancer nano-medicine: a numerical parametric study. Lasers Med Sci 2018; 34:377-388. [PMID: 30215184 DOI: 10.1007/s10103-018-2608-4] [Citation(s) in RCA: 2] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.3] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 05/21/2018] [Accepted: 08/02/2018] [Indexed: 10/28/2022]
Abstract
Using gold-silica nanoshell as a reference nano-agent, this work has performed preliminary numerical parametric study to investigate the feasibility and if feasible the efficiency of using a single nano-agent to achieve theranostic goals. In total, seven generics of gold-silica nanoshells have been tested including the R[50,10] (radius of the silica core is 50 nm and thickness of the gold shell is 10 nm), R[40,15], R[55,25], R[40,40], R[75,40], R[104,23], and R[154,24] nanoshells. A planar tissue model has been constructed as the platform for parametric study. For mathematical modeling, radiant transport equation (RTE) has been applied to describe the interactions among laser lights, the hosting tissue, and the hosted nanoshells and Penne's bio-heat equation has been applied to describe the hyperthermia induced by such interactions. Effects of different nanoshell generics on the diffuse reflectance signal and hyperthermia temperature transition have been simulated, basing on which the potential of a certain nanoshell generic as theranostic nano-agent has been evaluated. It has been found that it is highly feasible for gold-silica nanoshells to be engineered for theranostic purpose and nanoshell generics that are preferentially scattering should be explored for good theranostic candidates. On the condition that nanoshell generic with the right optical properties has been located, a moderate nanoshell retention in the target tissue site is already sufficient to induce effective theranostic effects, which indicates that theranostic nano-medicine might not have a stringent requirement for the delivery technique. Among nanoshells that have been tested, the R[55,25] nanoshell seems to be a promising candidate as theranostic nano-agent. Further testing on it is highly recommended. Nanoshells that are preferentially absorbing such as the R[50,10] and R[40,15] nanoshells are efficient photothermal agent and could be used for therapeutic purpose only. However, it is not recommended that preferentially absorbing nanoshells being used for theranostic purpose due to possible negative effects such nanoshells might bring to the diffuse reflectance signal.

Abstract
The importance of medical imaging in the diagnosis and monitoring of cancer cannot be overstated. As personalized cancer treatments are gaining popularity, a need for more advanced imaging techniques has grown significantly. Nanoparticles are uniquely suited to fill this void, not only as imaging contrast agents but also as companion diagnostics. This review provides an overview of many ways nanoparticle imaging agents have contributed to cancer imaging, both preclinically and in the clinic, as well as charting future directions in companion diagnostics. We conclude that, while nanoparticle-based imaging agents are not without considerable scientific and developmental challenges, they enable enhanced imaging in nearly every modality, hold potential as in vivo companion diagnostics, and offer precise cancer treatment and maximize intervention efficacy.

Abstract
The development of imaging agents was initially driven following the discovery of X-ray technologies, but quickly evolved and expanded to include radiolabeling of cells and tissues to assist disease diagnosis and progression. The first imaging agents preceded the Great War but the field did not gain momentum until the 1950s. The approval rate for imaging NMEs continued at a high level for the remainder of the 20th century, but substantially decreased thereafter. This decline in approval rates corresponds with industry consolidation. Such losses have stabilized, but could have important implications for a field that has conveyed direct benefits to medicine and that could ensure the future of the wider biopharmaceutical industry.

Abstract
The precision oncology significantly relies on the development of multifunctional agents to integrate tumor targeting, imaging and therapeutics. In this study, a first small-molecule theranostic probe, RhoSSCy is constructed by conjugating 5'-carboxyrhodamines (Rho) and heptamethine cyanine IR765 (Cy) using a reducible disulfide linker and pH tunable amino-group to realize thiols/pH dual sensing. In vitro experiments verify that RhoSSCy is highly sensitive for quantitative analysis and imaging intracellular pH gradient and biothiols. Furthermore, RhoSSCy shows superb tumor targeted dual-modal imaging via near-infrared fluorescence (NIRF) and photoacoustic (PA). Importantly, RhoSSCy also induces strongly reactive oxygen species for tumor photodynamic therapy (PDT) with robust antitumor activity both in vitro and in vivo. Such versatile small-molecule theranostic probe may be promising for tumor targeted imaging and precision therapy.

Abstract
This paper aims to update the clinical researches using superparamagnetic iron oxide (SPIO) nanoparticles as magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) contrast agent published during the past five years. PubMed database was used for literature search, and the search terms were (SPIO OR superparamagnetic iron oxide OR Resovist OR Ferumoxytol OR Ferumoxtran-10) AND (MRI OR magnetic resonance imaging). The literature search results show clinical research on SPIO remains robust, particularly fuelled by the approval of ferumoxytol for intravenously administration. SPIOs have been tested on MR angiography, sentinel lymph node detection, lymph node metastasis evaluation; inflammation evaluation; blood volume measurement; as well as liver imaging. Two experimental SPIOs with unique potentials are also discussed in this review. A curcumin-conjugated SPIO can penetrate brain blood barrier (BBB) and bind to amyloid plaques in Alzheime's disease transgenic mice brain, and thereafter detectable by MRI. Another SPIO was fabricated with a core of Fe3O4 nanoparticle and a shell coating of concentrated hydrophilic polymer brushes and are almost not taken by peripheral macrophages as well as by mononuclear phagocytes and reticuloendothelial system (RES) due to the suppression of non-specific protein binding caused by their stealthy ''brush-afforded'' structure. This SPIO may offer potentials for the applications such as drug targeting and tissue or organ imaging other than liver and lymph nodes.

Abstract
Introduction: To investigate the biodistribution and retention properties of the new super paramagnetic iron oxide (new SPIO: mean hydrodynamic diameter, 100 nm) nanoparticles, which have concentrated polymer brushes in the outer shell and are difficult for phagocytes to absorb, and to compare the new SPIO with clinically approved SPIO (Resovist: mean hydrodynamic diameter, 57 nm). Materials and Methods: 16 male C57BL/6N mice were divided in two groups according to the administered SPIO (n = 8 for each group; intravenous injection does, 0.1 ml). In vivo magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) was performed before and one hour, one day, one week and four weeks after SPIO administration by two dimensional-the fast low angle shot (2D-FLASH) sequence at 11.7T. Ex vivo high-resolution images of fixed organs were also obtained by (2D-FLASH). After the ex vivo MRI, organs were sectioned and evaluated histologically to confirm the biodistribution of each particle precisely. Results: The new SPIO was taken up in small amounts by liver Kupffer cells and showed a unique in vivo MRI contrast pattern in the kidneys, where the signal intensity decreased substantially in the boundaries between cortex and outer medulla and between outer and inner medulla. We found many round dark spots in the cortex by ex vivo MRI in both groups. Resovist could be detected almost in the cortex. The shapes of the dark spots were similar to those observed in the new SPIO group. Transmission electron microscopy revealed that Resovist and the new SPIO accumulated in different cells of glomeruli, that is, endothelial and mesangial cells, respectively. Conclusion: The new SPIO was taken up in small amounts by liver tissue and showed a unique MRI contrast pattern in the kidney. The SPIO were found in the mesangial cells of renal corpuscles. Our results indicate that the new SPIO may be potentially be used as a new contrast agent for evaluation of kidney function as well as immunune function.
