Aliphatic polyesters for medical imaging and theranostic applications.

Eur J Pharm Biopharm

November 2015

Institute of Biomolecules Max Mousseron (IBMM - CNRS UMR 5247), Department of Artificial Biopolymers, University of Montpellier, France.

Medical imaging is a cornerstone of modern medicine. In that context the development of innovative imaging systems combining biomaterials and contrast agents (CAs)/imaging probes (IPs) for improved diagnostic and theranostic applications focuses intense research efforts. In particular, the classical aliphatic (co)polyesters poly(lactide) (PLA), poly(lactide-co-glycolide) (PLGA) and poly(ɛ-caprolactone) (PCL), attract much attention due to their long track record in the medical field.

Article Synopsis
  • Probing protein kinases in living cells is challenging and demands specialized imaging tools.
  • The rise of genetically encoded and synthetic fluorescent biosensors allows for real-time monitoring of these kinases in their natural environment without damaging the cells.
  • The review discusses current technologies, highlights their limitations, and calls for advancements, especially in infrared probes and methods to enhance signal clarity and controlled probe activation.
