Outline of Final Research Achievements |
We previously found that a pressure wave induced by a short laser pulse, which is called a photomechanical wave, could transiently open the blood-brain barrier. On the basis of this effect, we showed in this study that a drug can safely and efficiently be delivered to the lesion, including infiltrated malignant cells in the peritumoral region, in a rat glioma model; infiltrated malignant cells are associated with the risk of recurrence. We also investigated photoacoustic imaging of the distribution of drug molecules leaked out of the vessels, as well as component technologies needed for the future clinical application of the present drug delivery method.
