Abstract
This review focuses on the advancements in manganese (Mn) complex-based magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) agents for imaging different diseases. Here we emphasize the unique redox properties of Mn to deliver innovative MRI contrast agents, including small molecules, nanoparticles (NPs), metal–organic frameworks (MOFs), and polymer hybrids. Aspects of their rational design have been discussed, including size dependence, morphology tuning, surface property enhancement, etc., while also discussing the existing challenges and potential solutions. The present work will inspire and motivate scientists to emphasize MRI-guided applications and bring clinical success in the coming years.
期刊介绍:
Drug Discovery Today delivers informed and highly current reviews for the discovery community. The magazine addresses not only the rapid scientific developments in drug discovery associated technologies but also the management, commercial and regulatory issues that increasingly play a part in how R&D is planned, structured and executed.
Features include comment by international experts, news and analysis of important developments, reviews of key scientific and strategic issues, overviews of recent progress in specific therapeutic areas and conference reports.
