Magnetic Targeting and Delivery of Drug-Loaded SWCNTs Theranostic Nanoprobes to Lung Metastasis in Breast Cancer Animal Model: Noninvasive Monitoring Using Magnetic Resonance Imaging

摘要

In this study, we aimed to develop novel therapeutic and diagnostic approaches by improving the targeting of doxorubicin-loaded single-walled carbon nanotubes (SWCNTs) to metastatic regions, and monitor their preferential homing and enhanced therapeutic effect using noninvasive free-breathing magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) and bioluminescence imaging.
