AB  - Magnetic iron oxide nanoparticles (MNPs) are one of the most promising types of nanoparticles for biomedical applications, primarily in the context of nanomedicine-based diagnostics and therapy. They are used as contrast agents in magnetic resonance imaging and magnetite cell labelling. Furthermore, they are promising heating mediator in magnetic hyperthermia-based therapy, and can serve as nanocarriers in targeted gene and drug delivery as well. In biomedical applications, coating plays an important role in nanoparticle dispersion stability and biocompatibility. However, the impact of nanoparticle surface chemistry on cell uptake and proliferation has not been sufficiently investigated. The objective of this study is to prepare magnetic nanoparticles with inner magnetite core and hydrophilic outer shell of surfactant, protein and polymers that are commonly used in biomedical research. MNPs were characterized in-depth by various physicochemical methods. Magnetic hyperthermia, applied to find out the influence of MNPs coating on heating characteristics of the samples, did not show any correlation between layer thickness and specific adsorption rate. To evaluate the impact of surface chemistry on cell proliferation and internalization, the human lung adenocarcinoma epithelial (A549) cells were utilized. Substantial differences were determined in the amount of internalized MNPs and cell viability in dependence on surface coating. Our results indicate that the surface chemistry not only protects particles from agglomeration but also affect the interaction between cell and MNPs. © 2018 Elsevier B.V.

AB  - Ferrofluids based on magnesium substituted magnetite nanoparticles MgxFe3−xO4 (x = 0.1; 0.2; 0.4) were synthesised by a chemical co-precipitation method. Their physical properties have been compared with those of the magnetite based ferrofluid obtained by the same synthesis route. Both XRD and TEM studies showed particle size decrease with the increased Mg content while DLS experiments pointed to the more prominent aggregation of Mg-containing nanoparticles. Magnetic properties investigation conducted on the powder (i.e. dried) specimens showed decrease of magnetization values with increased Mg content except for the lowest concentration of x = 0.1 where substantial saturation magnetization rise of about 40% was recorded at room temperature. Heating abilities of the studied ferrofluids under the applied AC fields (SAR values) also showed decreasing trend with the increased Mg content even for x = 0.1 sample despite its elevated magnetization value. This trend has been understood as a consequence of the changed intrinsic nanoparticle properties such as size and magnetic anisotropy, as well as contribution of a collective behaviour due to an increased nanoparticle aggregation in Mg-doped systems.

AB  - Novel theranostic nanoplatform is expected to integrate imaging for guiding and monitoring of the tumor therapy with great therapeutic efficacy and fewer side effects. Here we describe the preparation of a multifunctional 99mTc–bisphosphonate–coated magnetic nanoparticles (MNPs) based on Fe3O4 and coated with two hydrophilic bisphosphonate ligands, i.e., methylene diphosphonate (MDP) and 1–hydroxyethane-1,1- diphosphonate (HEDP). The presence of the bisphosphonates on the MNPs surface, enabled their biocompatibility, colloidal stability and successful binding of the radionuclide. The morphology, size, structure, surface charge and magnetic properties of obtained bisphosphonate–coated Fe3O4 MNPs were characterized by transmission electron microscopy, X–ray powder diffraction, dynamic light scattering, laser Doppler electrophoresis, Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy and vibrating sample magnetometer. The specific power absorption values for Fe3O4–MDP and Fe3O4–HEDP were 113 W/g and 141 W/g, respectively, indicated their heating ability under applied magnetic field. Coated MNPs were radiolabeled with 99mTc using stannous chloride as the reducing agent in a reproducible high yield (95% for Fe3O4–MDP and 97% for Fe3O4–HEDP MNPs) and were remained stable in saline and human serum for 24 h. Ex vivo biodistribution studies presented significant liver and spleen uptake in healthy Wistar rats after intravenous administration at all examined time points due to the colloidal nature of both 99mTc–MNPs. Results of scintigraphy studies are in accordance with ex vivo biodistribution studies, demonstrating high in vivo stability of radiolabeled MNPs and therefore results of both methods were proved as accurate information on the biodistribution profile of investigated MNPs. Overall, in vitro and in vivo stability as well as heating ability, indicate that biocompatible radiolabeled bisphosphonate magnetic nanoparticles exhibit promising potential as a theranostic nanoagent. © 2019 Elsevier B.V.

AB  - Magnetic nanoparticle (MNP)-mediated hyperthermia (MH) coupled with radiation therapy (RT) is a novel approach that has the potential to overcome various practical difficulties encountered in cancer treatment. In this work, we present recommendations for the in vitro and in vivo testing and application of the two treatment techniques. These recommendations were developed by the members of Working Group 3 of COST Action TD 1402: Multifunctional Nanoparticles for Magnetic Hyperthermia and Indirect Radiation Therapy (“Radiomag”). The purpose of the recommendations is not to provide definitive answers and directions but, rather, to outline those tests and considerations that a researcher must address in order to perform in vitro and in vivo studies. The recommendations are divided into 5 parts: (a) in vitro evaluation of MNPs; (b) in vitro evaluation of MNP-cell interactions; (c) in vivo evaluation of the MNPs; (d) MH combined with RT; and (e) pharmacokinetic studies of MNPs. Synthesis and characterization of the MNPs, as well as RT protocols, are beyond the scope of this work.

AB  - The aim of this study was to develop a dual-modality PET/MR imaging probe by radiolabeling iron oxide magnetic nanoparticles (IONPs), surface functionalized with water soluble stabilizer 2,3-dicarboxypropane-1,1-diphosphonic acid (DPD), with the positron emitter Gallium-68. Magnetite nanoparticles (Fe3O4 MNPs) were synthesized via coprecipitation method and were stabilized with DPD. The Fe3O4-DPD MNPs were characterized based on their structure, morphology, size, surface charge, and magnetic properties. In vitro cytotoxicity studies showed reduced toxicity in normal cells, compared to cancer cells. Fe3O4-DPD MNPs were successfully labeled with Gallium-68 at high radiochemical purity ( GT 91%) and their stability in human serum and in PBS was demonstrated, along with their further characterization on size and magnetic properties. The ex vivo biodistribution studies in normal Swiss mice showed high uptake in the liver followed by spleen. The acquired PET images were in accordance with the ex vivo biodistribution results. Our findings indicate that 68 Ga-Fe3O4-DPD MNPs could serve as an important diagnostic tool for biomedical imaging.
