Abstract:
An agent for imaging of a biological system or delivering drugs to a biological system including one or more nanoparticles formed of at least one gadolinium coordination polymer.
Abstract:
The present invention is directed to detectable compositions and methods for making and using such compositions. Detectable compositions comprise detectable constructs comprising a detectable agent. Due to the actions of a specific bioactivity in vivo or in vitro, the detectable construct is altered in some manner so that the detectable agent is detected. The present invention provides diagnostic imaging agents such as for MRI and optical imaging, which are used for sensitive detection of a specific bioactivity within a tissue. The present invention comprises methods and compositions for biocleavable or biodegradable compositions for carrying and releasing active agents for therapeutic or other medical uses. The methods and compositions of the present invention further comprise micelle compositions. The active agents of the present invention may comprise drugs, vaccines, and imaging agents.

Abstract:
The present invention provides biodegradable particles (e.g., three-dimensional particles) and micelles which can be used to encapsulate active agents for delivering to a subject. The present invention further provides methods for producing and delivering such particles and micelles. Additionally, the invention provides vaccination strategies that encompass the use of the novel particles and micelles.
