  • Publication number: 20210077637
    Abstract: The present disclosure provides a pH and oxygen dual-sensitive magnetic resonance imaging contrast agent and a preparation method thereof, which is a dual-modal nanoparticle contrast agent with 19F signal and CEST dual signal (19F-CEST), a CEST contrast agent that is dual-sensitive to pH and oxygen. The preparation method comprises: mixing a variety of phospholipid surfactants and cholesterol well to obtain a blend of phospholipid surfactants, which is dissolved in chloroform or a mixed solvent of chloroform and methanol, evaporated to dryness with a rotary evaporator and dried overnight in a vacuum oven at 40° C. after adding rhodamine, finally, it is dispersed in water containing glycerin by mechanical dispersion or ultrasonic vibration to obtain a lipid modifier; mixing perfluorocarbon, the lipid modifier obtained in step (1), glycerin, and water and ultrasonically mixing well with a probe, and extruding with an extruder to prepare a perfluorocarbon nanoemulsion.

  • Publication number: 20130224776
    Abstract: The invention provides isolated anti-PCan065 antibodies that bind to PCan065. The invention also encompasses compositions comprising an anti-PCan065 antibody and a carrier. These compositions can be provided in an article of manufacture or a kit. Another aspect of the invention is an isolated nucleic acid encoding an anti-PCan065 antibody, as well as an expression vector comprising the isolated nucleic acid. Also provided are cells that produce the anti-PCan065 antibodies. The invention encompasses a method of producing the anti-PCan065 antibodies. Other aspects of the invention are a method of killing an PCan065-expressing cancer cell, comprising contacting the cancer cell with an anti-PCan065 antibody and a method of alleviating or treating an PCan065-expressing cancer in a mammal, comprising administering a therapeutically effective amount of the anti-PCan065 antibody to the mammal.
