General description

14:0 PE-DTPA (Gd) has been used as a paramagnetic lipid to probe the orientation of a membrane protein in respect to the phospholipid bilayer membrane.
Lipid nanoparticles containing DMPE-DTPA(Gd) provide high quality contrast enhanced vascular MRI at 97% reduced dose of Gd and do not rely on renal clearance. Structure as shown by Cormode, D.P. et al.

We have previously reported enhancing the imaging of atherosclerotic plaques in mice using reconstituted high density lipoproteins (HDL) as nanocarriers for the MRI contrast agent gadolinium (Gd). This study focuses on the underlying mechanisms of Gd delivery to atherosclerotic plaques.

High density lipoprotein (HDL) is an important natural nanoparticle that may be modified for biomedical imaging purposes. Here we developed a novel technique to create unique multimodality HDL mimicking nanoparticles by incorporation of gold, iron oxide, or quantum dot nanocrystals

Gadolinium (Gd), with its 7 unpaired electrons in 4f orbitals that provide a very large magnetic moment, is proven to be among the best agents for contrast enhanced MRI. Unfortunately, the most potent MR contrast agent based on Gd requires
