The combination of Ultrasound (US) and US contrast agent (microbubbles, MBs), which is gas stabilized by a shell such as phospholipids or proteins, has potential as a useful innovative diagnostic and therapeutic tool. Previous studies have evaluated how particle size or shell components of MBs affect their physical characteristics, imaging ability, and drug delivery efficacy. We reported that MBs composed of neutral, anionic phospholipids, and polyethylene glycol-conjugated phospholipids at appropriate ratios were highly stable for US imaging. However, the effects of encapsulated gas on stability and drug delivery efficacy have not been characterized. Therefore, we developed several gas-loaded MBs with identical shell compositions and assessed their stability by US imaging (LOGIQ E9 with ML6-15 probe, MI 0.20). In addition, we assessed the effects of gas encapsulated in MBs on brain-targeted drug delivery, because the brain requires an efficient drug delivery system. Perfluoropropane and perfluorobutane-loaded MBs (MB-CF and MB-CF) showed sustained US imaging in vitro and in vivo compared with sulfur hexafluoride-loaded MBs (MB-SF). In addition, treatment of MB-CF and MB-CF with non-focused US efficiently delivered Evans blue, which was used as a model drug, to the brain to a greater extent than MB-SF. In these treatments, notable damage to brain was not observed, which was assessed by HE staining and denatured neuron staining. Our results suggested that perfluoropropane and perfluorobutane could be useful for the production of MBs with high stability to allow for US imaging and drug delivery.
