| Outline of Final Research Achievements |
Since nitric oxide (NO) is expected to be applied to various diseases including cardiovascular diseases, it is important to develop DDS technology to deliver NO to disease sites. In this research, we tried to develop a novel nanobubble with ultrasond-responsive nanobubbles encapsulating NO gas, succeeded in developing nanobubbles that enable NO gas delivery at the target site by ultrasound exposure transcutaneously. Indeed, this nanobubble was administered to hindlimb ischemic mouse model, and ultrasound exposure transcutaneously caused an increase in blood flow rate of ischemic site due to NO release at the site. Since this nanobubble enables ultrasound contrast imaging, it is expected to be useful for constructing noninvasive diagnostic and therapeutic (Theranostics) systems in ischemic and various diseases.
