| Research Abstract |
We synthesized folic acid (FA)- and polyethylene glycol (PEG)-modified superparamagnetic nanoparticle clusters (FA-PEG-SPION NCs) for theranostics combining magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) and magnetic hyperthermia treatment (MHT). SPION clustering and modification were achieved simultaneously via the thiol-ene click reaction. Twenty-four hours after intravenous injection of FA-PEG-SPION NCs, they accumulated locally in the tumor and enhanced the MRI contrast. Furthermore, 24 h after intravenous injection of the NCs, the mice were placed in an alternating current magnetic field (ACMF) for 20 min. The tumors of the mice underwent local heating by application of an ACMF. The temperature of the tumor was higher than the surrounding tissues by 6oC at 20 min after treatment. Thirty-five days after treatment, the tumor volume of treated mice was one-tenth that of the control mice. Furthermore, the treated mice were alive after 12 weeks; control mice died up to 8 weeks after treatment.
