lüll Design and fabrication of magnetic nanoparticles for targeted drug delivery and imaging Veiseh O; Gunn JW; Zhang MAdv Drug Deliv Rev 2010[Mar]; 62 (3): 284-304Magnetic nanoparticles (MNPs) represent a class of non-invasive imaging agents that have been developed for magnetic resonance (MR) imaging. These MNPs have traditionally been used for disease imaging via passive targeting, but recent advances have opened the door to cellular-specific targeting, drug delivery, and multi-modal imaging by these nanoparticles. As more elaborate MNPs are envisioned, adherence to proper design criteria (e.g. size, coating, molecular functionalization) becomes even more essential. This review summarizes the design parameters that affect MNP performance in vivo, including the physicochemical properties and nanoparticle surface modifications, such as MNP coating and targeting ligand functionalizations that can enhance MNP management of biological barriers. A careful review of the chemistries used to modify the surfaces of MNPs is also given, with attention paid to optimizing the activity of bound ligands while maintaining favorable physicochemical properties.|*Drug Delivery Systems[MESH]|*Magnetics[MESH]|*Nanoparticles[MESH]|Animals[MESH]|Drug Design[MESH]|Humans[MESH]|Ligands[MESH]|Magnetic Resonance Imaging/methods[MESH]|Nanotechnology/methods[MESH] |
