Modification of nitroxyl contrast agents with multiple spins and their proton T1 relaxivity
چکیده انگلیسی
The purpose of this study is to test the performance of multispin nitroxyl contrast agents in improving the sensitivity of MR detection for nitroxyl contrast agents. The relation between T1 relaxivity and the number of paramagnetic centers in a molecule was investigated. Compound 1 is a single molecule of methoxycarbonyl-PROXYL (MC-PROXYL). Two and three MC-PROXYL molecules were chemically coupled to obtain Compounds 2 and 3, which have two and three nitroxyl spins in the molecule, respectively. A good linear relation, the slope of which increased depending on the number of nitroxyl spins in the molecule, was obtained between T1-weighted (fast low-angle shot) MR image contrast enhancement at 7 T and the concentration of nitroxyl contrast agents. T1-weighted MR image contrast enhancement and T1 relaxivity levels of nitroxyl contrast agents were increased depending on the number of nitroxyl spins in the molecule. Multicoupling nitroxyl molecules can enhance the T1-weighted contrast effect while maintaining the quantitative behavior of the molecule for up to three spins.
