Abstract:
Ultrasound-activated microbubbles can locally enhance vascular drug delivery, but fully understanding the mechanism requires further investigation. The aims of this in vitro study were to (1) assess the initial single microbubble-endothelial cell (n = 301) 3D morphology, (2) determine whether the ligand type on the targeted microbubble affected this morphology, and (3) investigate the morphology’s influence on microbubble oscillation and drug delivery outcome, all using high-resolution 3D confocal microscopy in combination with ultra-high-speed imaging (∼17 Mfps).

Abstract:
Ultrasound combined with microbubble-mediated sonoporation has been applied to enhance drug or gene intracellular delivery. Sonoporation leads to the formation of openings in the cell membrane, triggered by ultrasound-mediated oscillations and destruction of microbubbles. Multiple mechanisms are involved in the occurrence of sonoporation, including ultrasonic parameters, microbubbles size, and the distance of microbubbles to cells. Recent advances are beginning to extend applications through the assistance of contrast agents, which allow ultrasound to connect directly to cellular functions suc

Abstract:
The immune response is governed by the dynamic spatiotemporal regulation of signalling proteins at the interface between immune cells and their targets. The broadened knowledge of immunology and antitumour immune responses has led to the development of a novel cancer therapy avenue: immunotherapy. Elucidating the underlying mechanisms of immunotherapy is, however, crucial as in some patients, and it is accompanied by a characteristic toxicity profile and severe side effects such as autoimmune endocrinopathies. This requires quantitative investigation of cell-cell interactions, including the ce

ULM is a super-resolution imaging method that has transformed ultrasound imaging by beating the diffraction limit, enabling the visualization of blood vessel down to the capillary size. The development of innovative ultrasound responsive agents may allow to further improve the performance of this technology.

Site-specific perforation of the plasma membrane can be achieved through ultrasound-triggered cavitation of a single microbubble positioned adjacent to the cell. However, for this perforation approach (sonoporation), the recovery manoeuvres invoked by the cell are unknown. Here, we report new findings on how membrane blebbing can be a recovery manoeuvre that may take place in sonoporation episodes whose pores are of micrometres in diameter.

The microbubbles caused the generation of a large number of small and large micropores in the PDMS membranes with decreased membrane thickness. The morphology of the thinner porous PDMS membrane induced higher values of roughness, Young’s modulus, contact angle, and air permeability. At day 7, the viability of c

Abstract Single cell sequencing (SCS) is one of the most commonly used analytical techniques for cellular characterization and has become a mainstay in immune profiling. As SCS has gained in popularity and improved in sensitivity, it has become apparent that ambient nucleic acids can have a major impact on the quality and reproducibility of obtained SCS results. Since the bulk of ambient nucleic acids in a sample come from dead or dying cells that have lost membrane integrity, one way to dramatically reduce ambient nucleic acids and decrease background noise in SCS is to remove dead cells from

Microbubble aeration is supposed to be highly efficient for oxygen supply in aerobic wastewater treatment. In the present study, the performance of a fixed-bed biofilm reactor microbubble-aerated using a Shirasu porous glass (SPG) membrane system was investigated when treating synthetic municipal wastewater. The biofilm formation on the carriers was enhanced with microbubble aeration due to the strong adhesion of microbubbles to the solid surface. The dissolved oxygen concentration, the removals of chemical oxygen demand (COD) and nitrogen, and the oxygen utilization efficiency were influenced

As phospholipid coated MBs were developed for use with diagnostic ultrasound, their behaviour under acoustic loading is well investigated, however much less is known about their response to direct mechanical loading, which will potentially prove important as the range of uses of MBs expands.

Current treatments of neurological and neurodegenerative diseases are limited due to the lack of a truly non-invasive, transient, and regionally selective brain drug delivery method. The brain is particularly difficult to deliver drugs to because of the blood-brain barrier (BBB). The impermeability of the BBB is due to the tight junctions connecting adjacent endothelial cells and highly regulatory transport systems of the endothelial cell membranes. The main function of the BBB is ion and volume regulation to ensure conditions necessary for proper synaptic and axonal signaling. However, the sa

Certain pathological conditions, e.g. pneumonia or acute lung injury, can lead to fluid buildup in the small pulmonary airways. During breathing, micron-sized air bubbles propagate through the fluid-occluded airways and these microbubbles may exert injurious hydrodynamic stresses on the epithelial cells (EC) which line airway walls. Specifically, the pressure and shear stresses generated during microbubble flows may cause plasma membrane rupture [1], cell detachment [2] and an exacerbation of the existing lung injury.
