Image‐Guided Prostate Cancer Therapy Using Aptamer‐Functionalized Thermally Cross‐Linked Superparamagnetic Iron Oxide Nanoparticles

Abstract: CG-rich duplex containing prostate-specific membrane antigen (PSMA) aptamer-conjugated thermally cross-linked superparamagnetic iron oxide nanoparticles (TCL-SPIONs) is reported as prostate cancer-specific nanotheranostic agents. These agents are capable of prostate tumor detection in vivo by magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) and selective delivery of drugs to the tumor tissue, simultaneously. The prepared PSMA-functionalized TCL-SPION via a hybridization method (Apt-hybr-TCL-SPION) exhibited preferential bindi… Show more

“…Similarly, targeted MRI can be achieved through aptamer-conjugated contrast reagent. In fact, a PSMA aptamer conjugated with a superparamagnetic iron oxide nanoparticle has been successfully applied to image LNCaP xenograft mouse model (Yu et al, 2011). Another example is a nucleolin aptamer conjugated with a cobalt-ferrite nanoparticle for imaging rat glioma (Hwang do et al, 2010).…”

“…bio-imaging) therapy and a smart combination of both of these properties (Smith et al, 2008;Peng et al, 2000;Li et al, 2003;Murry et al, 2000). Some of advancement of nanotechnology inspired application include improved imaging contrast agents by SPIONS (super-paramagnetic iron oxide nanoparticles), targeted delivery of drugs, molecular chaperons and agents to kill specific cancer cells (Yu et al, 2011;Petkar et al, 2011;Patra et al, 2007). Another exclusive application involve magnetic induction (radio frequency) heating or laser induced heating of designer particles, with desirable material and shape attributes (Peterman et al, 2003;Plech et al, 2004).…”

“…In particular, MNPs present exciting new opportunities including dual functionality of site-specific delivery of anticancer drugs coupled with an enhanced quality of magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) [8]. Thus, MNPs have the potential to revolutionize current clinical diagnostic and therapeutic strategies for CaP patients [9][10][11].…”
