Abstract

PURPOSE: To determine whether low-intensity pulsed ultrasound (LIPUS) is able to facilitate the uptake of a superparamagnetic iron oxide (SPIO) nanomaterial by cells that do not express high endocytosis capacity. MATERIALS AND METHODS: The human osteosarcoma cell line U2OS and a silica-coated SPIO functionalized peripherally with amines groups (overall diameter 8 nm) were used in this study. Adherent U2OS cells were labeled with SPIO by incubating with culture media containing the SPIO at 4.5 microg[Fe]/mL. LIPUS with the same parameters as those used in clinical application to accelerate bone fracture healing (1.5 MHz, duty cycle 1:4, spatial-average temporal-average intensity 30 mW/cm(2)) was applied to the cells at the beginning of the labeling process for 0, 0.5, 1, or 3 hours. The total incubation time with SPIO was 12 hours. SPIO labeling efficiency was evaluated with Prussian blue staining and a blueness measurement method, and magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) of cell pellets via measuring areas of SPIO-induced signal void. RESULTS: Both Prussian blue staining and in vitro MRI demonstrated that LIPUS application increased the SPIO nanomaterial labeling efficiency for U2OS cells in an exposure-duration-dependent manner. CONCLUSION: This study is a "proof of concept" that LIPUS can facilitate the cellular take-up of SPIO nanomaterial.

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
