To develop an estimation method of gadolinium magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) contrast agents, the effect of concentration of Gd compounds on the ESR spectrum of nitroxyl radical was examined. A solution of either 4-oxo-2,2,6,6-tetramethylpiperidine-N-oxyl (TEMPONE) or 4-hydroxy-2,2,6,6-tetramethylpiperidine-N-oxyl (TEMPOL) was mixed with a solution of Gd compound and the ESR spectrum was recorded. Increased concentration of gadolinium-diethylenetriamine pentaacetic acid chelate (Gd-DTPA), an MRI contrast agent, increased the peak-to-peak line widths of ESR spectra of the nitroxyl radicals, in accordance with a decrease of their signal heights. A linear relationship was observed between concentration of Gd-DTPA and line width of ESR signal, up to approximately 50 mmol/L Gd-DTPA, with a high correlation coefficient. Response of TEMPONE was 1.4-times higher than that of TEMPOL as evaluated from the slopes of the lines. The response was slightly different among Gd compounds; the slopes of calibration curves for acua[N,N-bis[2-[(carboxymethyl)[(methylcarbamoyl)methyl]amino]ethyl]glycinato(3-)]gadolinium hydrate (Gd-DTPA-BMA) (6.22 μT·L/mmol) and gadolinium-1,4,7,10-tetraazacyclododecane-1,4,7,10-tetraacetic acid chelate (Gd-DOTA) (6.62 μT·L/mmol) were steeper than the slope for Gd-DTPA (5.45 μT·L/mmol), whereas the slope for gadolinium chloride (4.94 μT·L/mmol) was less steep than that for Gd-DTPA. This method is simple to apply. The results indicate that this method is useful for rough estimation of the concentration of Gd contrast agents if calibration is carried out with each standard compound. It was also found that the plot of the reciprocal square root of signal height against concentrations of contrast agents could be useful for the estimation if a constant volume of sample solution is taken and measured at the same position in the ESR cavity every time.  相似文献

A new self-assembled gadolinium(III)-aluminum(III) complex (Gd(3)Al) was synthesized and characterized. The efficacy of this Gd(3)Al complex as a potential bimodal magnetic resonance imaging (MRI)/optical imaging agent has been evaluated. Relaxivity studies showed that the Gd(3)Al complex has higher relaxation efficiency (7.18 mM(-1) s(-1)) compared with the clinically used complex gadolinium-diethylenetriaminepentaacetic acid (Gd-DTPA, 3.9 mM(-1) s(-1)) at 400 MHz and 25 °C. In vitro T(1)-MR images on a 0.5 T magnetic field exhibited a remarkable enhancement of signal contrast for Gd(3)Al compared to Gd-DTPA. Furthermore, the Gd(3)Al complex exhibits bright-green luminescence with the emission spectrum centred at 510 nm. Live-cell fluorescence imaging reveals that the Gd(3)Al complex is permeable to cells and localizes to the cytoplasm. In view of the relaxometric and luminescent properties, this Gd(3)Al complex could serve as a potential bimodal MRI/optical imaging agent.  相似文献

Macromolecular ligands with liver-targeting group (pyridoxamine, PM) PHEA-DTPA-PM and PAEA-DTPA-PM were prepared by the incorporation of different amount of diethylenetria-minepentaacetic acid monopyridoxamine group (DTPA-PM) into poly-cc, p-[N-(2-hydroxyethyl)-L-aspartamide] (PHEA) and poly-α, β-[N-(2-aminoethyl)-L-aspartamide] (PAEA). The macromolecular ligands thus obtained were further complexed with gadolinium chloride to give macromolecular MRI contrast agents with different Gd(Ⅲ) contents. These macromolecular ligands and their gadolinium complexes were characterized by 1H NMR, 1R, UV and elementary analysis. Relaxivity studies showed that these polyaspartamide gadolinium complexes possess higher relaxation effectiveness than that of the clinically used Gd-DTPA. Magnetic resonance imaging of the liver in rats and experimental data of biodistribution in mice indicate that these macromolecular MRI contrast agents containing pyridoxamine exhibit liver-targeting property.  相似文献

Gadolinium (Gd)-based cancer therapeutic liposomes can be used for chemotherapeutics and diagnostics. In this study, dual functional liposomes co-encapsulating doxorubicin (Dox) and Gd were prepared by Dox-transition metal complexation. Preparation conditions were optimized to obtain liposomes containing high concentrations of Dox and Gd. The optimized liposomes Gd250 co-encapsulated 3.6 mM of Dox and 1.9 mM of Gd. The magnetic resonance (MR) properties of Gd250 liposomes were determined using a 4.7 T MR system. Cellular uptake of Dox was determined using a flow cytometer and a confocal microscopy and that of Gd was measured using an inductively coupled plasma-atomic emission spectrometer. Although encapsulated Gd exhibited lower relaxivity than MRbester?, which is widely used for clinical diagnosis, because of limited diffusion across the liposome membrane, Gd250 liposomes showed much higher cellular uptake than that of MRbester?. In Gd250 liposomes, Gd was highly accumulated in B16F10 cells, which could provide improved contrast sensitivity for molecular imaging. Additionally, in Gd250 liposomes, Dox was highly internalized, which could enhance its cancer therapeutic effects. Consequently, we suggest that dual functional liposomes can be used as therapeutic and diagnostic carriers.  相似文献

We describe the rational design of a novel class of magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) contrast agents with engineered proteins (CAi.CD2, i = 1, 2,..., 9) chelated with gadolinium. The design of protein-based contrast agents involves creating high-coordination Gd(3+) binding sites in a stable host protein using amino acid residues and water molecules as metal coordinating ligands. Designed proteins show strong selectivity for Gd(3+) over physiological metal ions such as Ca(2+), Zn(2+), and Mg(2+). These agents exhibit a 20-fold increase in longitudinal and transverse relaxation rate values over the conventional small-molecule contrast agents, e.g., Gd-DTPA (diethylene triamine pentaacetic acid), used clinically. Furthermore, they exhibit much stronger contrast enhancement and much longer blood retention time than Gd-DTPA in mice. With good biocompatibility and potential functionalities, these protein contrast agents may be used as molecular imaging probes to target disease markers, thereby extending applications of MRI.  相似文献

Paramagnetic porous polymersomes   总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1  
The ability of chelated Gd to serve as an effective magnetic resonance (MR) contrast agent largely depends on fast exchange rates between the Gd-bound water molecules and the surrounding bulk water. Because water diffuses slowly across lipid bilayers, liposomes with encapsulated chelated Gd have not been widely adopted as MR contrast agents. To overcome this limitation, we have synthesized chemically stabilized, porous polymersomes with encapsulated gadolinium (Gd) chelates. The polymerosmes, 125 nm in diameter, were produced from the aqueous assembly of diblock copolymers, PEO(1300)- b-PBD(2500) (PBdEO), and phospholipids, 1-palmitoyl-2-oleoyl- sn-glycero-3-phosphocholine (POPC). The PBdEO was cross-linked using a chemical initiator and the POPC was extracted with surfactant, generating a highly porous outer membrane. The encapsulated Gd chelates were attached to dendrimers to prevent their leakage through the pores. It was estimated that, on average, nearly 44 000 Gd were encapsulated within each polymersome. As a result of the slower rotational correlation time of Gd-labeled dendrimers and the porous outer membrane, the paramagnetic porous polymersomes exhibited an R1 relaxivity of 7.2 mM (-1) s (1-) per Gd and 315 637 mM (-1) s (-1) per vesicle. This corresponds to a relaxivity that is amplified by a factor of approximately 10 (5) compared with Gd-DTPA.  相似文献

The application of high-resolution multi-step resonance ionization mass spectrometry (RIMS) to the trace determination of the rare earth element gadolinium is described. Utilizing three-step resonant excitation into an autoionizing level, both isobaric and isotopic selectivity of >10(7) were attained. An overall detection efficiency of approximately 10(-7) and an isotope specific detection limit of 1.5 x 10(9) atoms have been demonstrated. When targeting the major isotope (158)Gd, this corresponds to a total Gd detection limit of 1.6 pg. Additionally, linear response has been demonstrated over a dynamic range of six orders of magnitude. The method has been used to determine the Gd content in various normal and tumor tissue samples, taken from a laboratory mouse shortly after injection of gadolinium diethylenetriaminepentaacetic acid dimeglumine (Gd-DTPA), which is used as a contrast agent for magnetic resonance imaging (MRI). The RIMS results show Gd concentrations that vary by more than two orders of magnitude (0.07-11.5 microg mL(-1)) depending on the tissue type. This variability is similar to that observed in MRI scans that depict Gd-DTPA content in the mouse prior to dissection, and illustrates the potential for quantitative trace analysis in microsamples of biomedical materials.  相似文献

Gd(III)-containing dendrimers are promising contrast agents for magnetic resonance imaging (MRI). An important issue in the effectiveness and toxicity of a Gd(III) based MRI contrast agent is knowledge of the relative locations and concentrations of Gd(III) in dendrimer drug delivery hosts. In order to provide experimental information on this issue, we have investigated the electron paramagnetic resonance (EPR) of a stable Gd(III) complex with diethylenetriaminepentaacetic acid (DTPA) in various polyammidoamine (PAMAM) dendrimers as a function of dendrimer generation (G2, G4, and G6), dendrimer core (ethylenediamine = EDA, and cystamine = cys), and dendrimer surface functionality (NH(2), 5-oxo-3-pyrrolidinecarboxylic acid methyl ester = pyr, and tris(hydroxymethyl) methylamine = tris). The dendrimer systems were investigated in the presence and absence of paramagnetic probes, that is, Cu(II) and nitroxide radicals (4-(trimethylammonium and dodecyl-dimethylammonium) 2,2,6,6-tetramethylpiperidine 1-oxyl bromide = CAT1 and CAT12, respectively). The analysis of the EPR spectra revealed anisotropic locations of Gd-DTPA inside the dendrimer. Computer analysis of the EPR spectra of the probes identified the interactions of the Gd-dendrimers with ions and organic molecules. The interaction between the probes and the dendrimer internal and external surface depends on the type of core, the composition of the external surface and the generation of the dendrimer. The negatively charged Gd-DTPA complex attracts the positively charged species and this provokes spin-spin interactions between Gd and the probes, which increases with a decrease in generation, mainly from G6 to G4, and with an increase in both the Gd-dendrimer concentration and the probe concentration. The cys core increases the internal volume and decreases the packing of the branches.  相似文献

Dextran-poly(glycidyl methacrylate)(Dex-PGMA) nano-suitcases were synthesized efficiently via a graft copolymerization induced self-assembly(GISA) approach. On this basis, the Dex-PGMA nano-suitcases were modified with hydrazide, and the attachment of multiple chelated Gd(Ⅲ) ions to the interior of the nano-suitcases affords nanoscale MRI contrast agents with high relaxivity values. The highly fenestrated dextran shell of the nano-suitcases assures water exchange which readily occurs between the surrounding environment and the Gd(Ⅲ) ions encapsulated within the hybrid nano-suitcases. The complexation between the hydrophilic hydrazide interior of the nano-suitcases and Gd(Ⅲ) ions results in an impressive Gd payload at 22.6 wt% in the hybrid nano-suitcases. The longitudinal relaxivity(r1) of the hybrid nano-suitcases is reported as 44.4 L/(mmol·s), which is 9-14 folds of that of commercial Gd-DTPA agents. In vivo MRI studies demonstrate that the hybrid nano-suitcases accumulated in the lymph node of the rat due to their nanoscale dimensions and displayed strong signals in vivo. The results indicated that the hybrid nano-suitcases provide a promising platform for the diagnosis of lymph node related diseases.  相似文献

Two DTPA derivatives (PIP-DTPA and AZEP-DTPA) as potential contrast enhancement agents in MRI are synthesized. The T1 and T2 relaxivities of their corresponding Gd(III) complexes are reported. At clinically relevant field strengths, the relaxivities of the complexes are comparable to that of the contrast agent, Gd(DTPA) which is in clinical use. The serum stability of the (153)Gd-labeled complexes is assessed by measuring the release of (153)Gd from the ligands. The radiolabeled Gd chelates are found to be kinetically stable in human serum for up to at least 14 days without any measurable loss of radioactivity.  相似文献

In our previous paper, we reported a method of liposome loading with Gadolinium (Gd) via so called polychelating amphiphilic polymer (PAP). A novel Gd-containing polymeric probe, suitable for the incorporation into the liposomal membrane, was prepared from a low-molecular-weight DTPA-polylysine by linking its N-terminus to a lipid anchor, NGPE-PE. When compared with known membranotropic MR probes, such as Gd-DTPA-SA and Gd-DTPA-PE, liposomes containing new membrane-bound polychelator possess enhanced relaxivity for water protons resulting in an increase of tissue signal intensity on MR images. In this study, we developed the optimized protocol to prepare a liposomal MR contrast agent with high relaxivity and narrow size distribution. Gd-containing liposomes were additionally modified with PEG to provide longevity in vivo. We also demonstrated that upon intravenous administration in rabbit and dog, the new preparation causes a prolonged decrease in the blood T1 value (reflecting the proton relaxation rate in the blood) and may be considered as a potential contrast agent for MRI of the blood pool.  相似文献

A novel ligand, diethylenetriamine-N,N'-bis(acetyl-isoniazid)-N,N',N'-triacetic acid (H(3)L) has been synthesized from diethylene triamine pentaacetic acid (DTPA) and isoniazid. Ligand and its five neutral rare earth (RE=La, Sm, Eu, Gd, Tb) complexes holding promise of magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) were characterized on the basis of elemental analysis, molar conductivity, (1)H-NMR spectrum, FAB-MS, TG-DTA analysis and IR spectrum. The relaxivity (R(1)) of complexes and Gd(DTPA)(2-) used as a control were determined. The relaxivity of LaL, SmL, EuL, GdL, TbL and Gd(DTPA)(2-) were 0.14, 1.66, 3.14, 6.08, 2.79 and 4.34 l.mmol(-1).s(-1), respectively. The spin-lattice relaxivity of GdL was larger than that of Gd(DTPA)(2-). The relaxivity of GdL had also been investigated in human serum albumin (HSA) solution, the relaxivity of GdL was enhanced from 6.08 l.mmol(-1).s(-1) in water solution to 9.09 l.mmol(-1).s(-1) in HSA solution. In addition, thermodynamics stability constant of GdL complex was determined, the thermodynamic stability constant of GdL complex (K(GdL)=10(20.84)) was a few larger than that of Gd(DTPA)(2-) (K(Gd-DTPA)=10(20.73)). The results showed that complex of GdL may be a prospective MRI contrast agent with low osmotic pressure due to non-ion complex, high spin-lattice relaxivity, good stability and binding affinity for the serum protein.  相似文献

Here, a new amphiphilic magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) contrast agent, a GdIII‐chelated diethylenetriaminepentaacetic acid conjugated to two branched alkyl chains via a dopamine spacer, Gd‐DTPA‐dopamine‐bisphytanyl (Gd‐DTPA‐Dop‐Phy), which is readily capable of self‐assembling into liposomal nanoassemblies upon dispersion in an aqueous solution, is reported. In vitro relaxivities of the dispersions were found to be much higher than Magnevist, a commercially available contrast agent, at 0.47 T but comparable at 9.40 T. Analysis of variable temperature 17O NMR transverse relaxation measurements revealed the water exchange of the nanoassemblies to be faster than that previously reported for paramagnetic liposomes. Molecular reorientation dynamics were probed by 1H NMRD profiles using a classical inner and outer sphere relaxation model and a Lipari–Szabo “model‐free” approach. High payloads of GdIII ions in the liposomal nanoassemblies made solely from the Gd‐DTPA‐Dop‐Phy amphiphiles, in combination with slow molecular reorientation and fast water exchange makes this novel amphiphile a suitable candidate to be investigated as an advanced MRI contrast agent.  相似文献

The present paper covers the synthesis and the characterization of ligand 2-decyl-3, 6, 9-tris(carboxymethyl)-3,6,9-triazaundecan-1,11-dioic acid, H5L, and its Gd(Ⅲ) chelate. The protonation constants for H5L(lgKHi=10.90, 8.50, 4.55, 2.92, 2.20) and the stability constant for GdL2- (lgKGdL2-=22.80) were determined by means of potentiometric titration. They are similar to the corresponding values of DTPA and Gd-DTPA, respectively. The results obtained show that the basicity of the ligand and the stability constant of its Gd(Ⅲ) chelate are not obviously altered after the introduction of a linear chain decyl group into the terminal acetic acid residue of DTPA. The Gd(Ⅲ) chelate may be a potential contrast agent with liver-specificity for magnetic resonance imaging(MRI).  相似文献

A novel ligand, diethylenetriamine-N,N'-bis(acetyl-p-hydroxybenzoyl hydrazine)-N,N',N'-triacetic acid (H3L) was synthesized and characterized on the basis of elemental analysis, molar conductivity, 1H-NMR spectrum, FAB-MS, TG-DTA analysis and IR spectrum. Its complex of Gd(III) holding promise of magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) was synthesized, and relaxivity (R1) of complex and Gd(DTPA)2- used as a control was determined in water solution, respectively. The relaxivity of GdL (R1 = 6.39 l.mmol(-1).s(-1)) was larger than that of Gd(DTPA)2- (R1 = 4.34 l.mmol(-1).s(-1)). The relaxivity of GdL has also been investigated in human serum albumin (HSA) solution, the relaxivity of GdL was enhanced from 6.39 l.mmol(-1).s(-1) in water solution to 7.69 l.mmol(-1).s(-1) in HSA solution. In addition, thermodynamics stability constant of GdL was determined. The results showed that complex of GdL is a prospective MRI contrast agent, although the thermodynamic stability constant of GdL complex (K(GdL) = 10(19.56)) was a little less than that of Gd(DTPA)2- (K(Gd-DTPA) = 10(20.73)).  相似文献
