Abstract:
Objective To build the schema of combination between commercially available ultrasound contrast agent SonoVue and self-made liposomes,and determine its efficiency. Methods Microbubbles was labeled by carbocyanines dye DiI. The effect of DSPE-PEG-FITC labelling was determined by flow cytometer to evaluate the insertion efficiency of the amphipathic molecule DSPE-PEG(2000)Amine into lipid monomers shell. Aminated fluorescent liposomes were prepared by rotary evaporation and their size were determined by laser particle size analyzer. Liposomes and microbubbles were combined by two-step glutaraldehyde crosslinking. The impact of liposome concentration and DSPE-PEG (2000)Amine concentration on the construction efficiency of the complex of SonoVue conjugated to liposomes was determined by flow cytometer and multifunctional ELIASA respectively. Results The configuration of SonoVue microbubbles labeled by DiI and DSPE-PEG-FITC showed fine. The combination between liposomes and microbubbles was realized by glutaraldehyde crosslinking. The flow cytometer showed that 200 μl liposomes solution per 200 μl microbubbles suspension was the optimal proportion, with the peak positive rate as (87.80 ± 5.91)%. Multifunctional ELIASA showed that 150 μl DSPE-PEG (2000)Amine (100 μm) solution per 200 μl microbubbles suspension was the optimal proportion, with the peak carry efficiency as (83.41±2.21)%. Conclusions The amination of commercially available SonoVue is realized by the insertion of DSPE-PEG (2000) Amine molecule. Glutaraldehyde crosslinking the liposomes and microbubbles is feasible. Moreover, we can choose other active groups to modify the microbubbles and liposomes, construct more convenient methods with higher efficiency.
