Liposome–Gold Nanorod Hybrids for High-Resolution Visualization Deep in Tissues

Abstract: The design of liposome-nanoparticle hybrids offers a rich toolbox for the fabrication of multifunctional modalities. A self-assembled liposome-gold nanorod hybrid vesicular system that consists of lipid-bilayer-associated gold nanorods designed to allow deep tissue detection, therapy, and monitoring in living animals using multispectral optoacoustic tomography has been fabricated and characterized in vitro and in vivo.

“…The core can also provide magnetic and fluorescence property, depending on the core composition. [70][71][72] Wrapping a PC lipid layer on an inorganic NP can make the surface less sticky (anti-fouling), and thus increase biocompatibility of the core. A good example incorporating all these features was reported by Brinker and coworkers ( Figure 10B).…”

“…High-resolution visualization of double-labeled liposomes in deep tissues was previously performed by multispectral optoacoustic tomography (MSOT). [60] However, the TPLSM enables highly detailed studies on the impact of the extracellular matrix (ECM) on the distribution of drugs and drug delivery systems within tumors, and it facilitates studies in which therapies modulating the ECM are being evaluated. Importantly, for such 3D TPLSM studies, fluorophores with wavelengths below ~600 nm have to be employed (because of the principles of two-photon excitation), underlining the importance of labeling nanomedicines with two different fluorophores.…”

“…119 Current synthetic methods can be used to synthesize NPs with absorption bands in the range where OI operates. For instance, gold nanoprisms and nanorods, 37,120 whose plasmon band can be adjusted along the NIR by chemical design, have been used as OI contrast agents. Actually, expanding the excitation sources used by OI into the SWIR will improve the possibilities of this technique owing to deeper tissue penetration.…”
