Abstract:
:Surface modification of liposomes containing Gd-diethylenetriaminepentaacetyl-phosphatidylethanolamine (Gd-DTPA-PE) as an amphiphilic paramagnetic label influences their contrast properties as MRI agents. Liposomes with the mean diameter ca. 220 nm and 10% mol content of Gd-DTPA-PE were modified with dextran (molecular weight 6 kDa) or polyethyleneglycol (PEG, molecular weight 5 kDa). The preparations obtained were used for MR visualization of axillary and subscapular lymph nodes after SC injection into rabbit's paw. Dextran-modified liposomes were found to have limited or no effect on lymph node/muscle MR signal intensity ratio during the first 2 h after the administration when compared to nonmodified plain liposomes, whereas the liposomes modified with PEG demonstrated a 3-3.5-fold enhancement of lymph node signal. However, the partial biodistribution studies with the 111In-labeled liposomes revealed that PEG-modified vesicles accumulated in the axillary lymph node at half the amount comparing with nonmodified and dextran-modified liposomes. The phenomenon found might be explained by noticeably increased relaxivity of PEG-modified Gd-liposomes.
