pH-Responsive Theranostic Polymer-Caged Nanobins: Enhanced Cytotoxicity and T sub(1) MRI Contrast by Her2 Targeting
A polymer-caged nanobin (PCN) theranostic platform with a doxorubicin (DXR)-loaded liposomal core and an acid-sensitive polymer shell that is functionalized with herceptin and Gd super(III)-based magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) contrast agents is reported. In vitro testing reveals an 120-fold impro...

Zusammenfassung: | A polymer-caged nanobin (PCN) theranostic platform with a doxorubicin (DXR)-loaded liposomal core and an acid-sensitive polymer shell that is functionalized with herceptin and Gd super(III)-based magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) contrast agents is reported. In vitro testing reveals an 120-fold improvement in cellular Gd super(III) uptake in comparison with clinically approved DOTA-Gd super(III), leading to significant T sub(1) MRI contrast enhancement. |
