Abstract:
Objective To prepare the liver targeting nano-liquid perfluorocarbon ultrasound contrast agent and observe its general characteristics;to observe the targeting combined effects of the human liver cells L02 and the targeted ultrasound contrast agent ;to evaluate the gathering imaging effects of the targeted ultrasound contrast agent. Methods Amine method was used to prepared asialoglycoprotein Gal specific ligand polylysine (Gal-PLL), rotary evaporator and sonicated liquid fluorocarbon were used to prepare nano lipid ultrasound contrast agent. Human liver cell L02 were cultured, the combined effects were observed according to the reacting time of the cells and the targeted nano-lipid ultrasound contrast agent. The nanolipid ultrasound contrast agent and the degassed_ water_ were loaded into cysts and their ultrasound imaging effects were observed by ultrasound diagnostic apparatus Philips iU22. Results The particle size of the liquid fluorocarbon nano-targeted lipid ultrasound contrast agent was extremely small, uniform, cylindrical and spherical. The cysts in vitro showed that the side of the targeted liquid perfluorocarbon nano-lipid ultrasound contrast agent showed high echo. Conclusions The targeted liquid perfluorocarbon nano-lipid ultrasound contrast agent can be effectively targeted to the human liver cells L02 due to carrying home-made Gal-PLL. The targeted ultrasound contrast agents can be imaging by ultrasound and be confirmed in vitro.The size of the contrast agent was small, therefore, it can be considered an ideal ultrasonic molecular probe and achieve the ultrasound molecular imaging in cell level.
