Magnetic nanoparticle biodistribution following intratumoral administration

Abstract: Recently, heat generated by iron oxide nanoparticles (IONP) stimulated by an alternating magnetic field (AMF) has shown promise in the treatment of cancer. To determine the mechanism of nanoparticle-induced cytotoxicity, the physical association of the cancer cells and the nanoparticles must be determined. We have used transmission electron microscopy (TEM) to define the time dependent cellular uptake of intratumorally administered dextran-coated, core-shell configuration IONP having a mean hydrodynamic diamet… Show more

“…This is the reason why we referred to the MHT performed immediately (15 min) and one day after the injection of MNPs as "extracellular MHT" and "intracellular MHT", respectively. Giustini et al [18] used TEM to evaluate the time-dependent cellular uptake of intratumorally in- MNPs into the tumors [18]. Thus, our results ( Figure 3) are consistent with the findings reported by Giustini et al [18].…”

“…Previous studies from our group suggest that mNP are largely extracellular at this time. 31 A qualitative, TEM-based, evaluation of tumors indicates that the majority of mNP are extracellular at the time of AMF initiation.…”

“…The uptake of nanoparticles across cell membranes is investigated using different tools such as cell culture, biodistribution studies, transmission electron microscopy (TEM) and fluorescence microscopy (Raut et al, 2010;Giustini et al, 2011;Kirthivasan et al, 2012). Preliminary investigations with dye-loaded nanoparticles highlight the uptake mechanisms of colloidal carriers (van Rooy et al, 2011).…”
