Abstract:<p>By integrating the advantages of lipids’ biocompatibility and nanobubbles’
potent physicochemical properties, lipid nanobubbles show a great potential in ultrasound
molecular imaging and biocompatible drug/gene delivery. However, under the
interactions of the ultrasound, lipid nanobubbles may fuse with the cell
membrane, changing the local membrane component and re-distributing encapsulated
gas molecules into the hydrophobic region of the cell membrane, which may greatly
affect the dynamics of certain… Show more
