In sonodynamic therapy (SDT), when Chlorin e6 (Ce6) accumulates in tumor tissues, its anti-tumor effect can be achieved by ultrasound activation. To increase the local drug concentration of Ce6 in tumor cells, we had established a novel drug delivery system, Ce6-loaded sonosensitive magnetic nanoliposome (Ce6/SML), which realized the targeting delivery by the external magnetic field. It was worth mentioning that the targeting release of Ce6/SML and the activation on Ce6 could be achieved simultaneously by ultrasound of SDT. In our study, after Ce6 was loaded into the sonosensitive magnetic nanoliposome (SML), the values of superoxide dismutase (SOD) and glutathione peroxidase (GSH-Px) and were determined, indicating the activation on Ce6 of ultrasound. The delivery system also displayed the tumor-targeting ability and anti-tumor activity, which associated with the determined tumor growth and expression levels of angiogenin (ANG), vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) and tumor necrosis factor-alpha (TNF-α). In conclusion, the Ce6/SML-SDT-Targeted delivery system could effectively enhance the anti-tumor activity of SDT and had a great potential application for the treatment of malignant tumors located in deep tissues.

Invasive open surgery used to be compulsory to access tumor mass to perform excision or resection. Development of minimally invasive laparoscopic procedures followed, as well as catheter-based approaches, such as stenting, endovascular surgery, chemoembolization, brachytherapy, which minimize side effects and reduce the risks to patients. Completely noninvasive procedures bring further benefits in terms of reducing risk, procedure time, recovery time, potential of infection, or other side effects.

Objective: Sonosensitive high-boiling point perfluorocarbon FTAC-PFOB emulsions previously exhibited thermal enhancement during focused ultrasound heating in ex vivo pig livers, kidneys and a laminar flow phantom. The main objectives of this study were to evaluate heating under turbulent conditions, observe perfusion effects, quantify heating in terms of acoustic absorption and model the experimental data.
Methods: In this study, similar perfluorocarbon emulsions were circulated at incremental concentrations of 0.

Background: Ischemic stroke is the most common cerebrovascular disease and is caused by interruption of blood supply to the brain. To date, recombinant tissue plasminogen activator (rtPA) has been the main pharmacological treatment in the acute phase. However, this treatment has some drawbacks, such as a short half-life, low reperfusion rate, risk of hemorrhagic transformations, and neurotoxic effects.

Micron-sized perfluorocarbon droplet adjuvants to focused ultrasound therapies allow lower applied power, circumvent unwanted prefocal heating, and enhance thermal dose in highly perfused tissues. The heat enhancement has been shown to saturate at increasing concentrations. Experiments were performed to empirically model the saturating heating effects during focused ultrasound.
