In this study, we fabricated fluorescence gold nanoclusters decorated gas vesicles for ultrasound-mediated enhanced cellular delivery and imaging. The gas vesicles showed improved stability and fluorescence ability compared to free gold nanoclusters. The flow cytometry assay and confocal images confirmed the enhanced cellular uptake and imaging efficiency of the gas vesicles under ultrasound impact.
The intercellular tight junction inhibits tumor imaging efficiency of nanomaterials, and enhanced cellular drug delivery with efficient detection is an important tool for tumor diagnosis. Herein, we fabricate fluorescence gold nanoclusters (Au NCs) decorated gas vesicles (GV-Au) for ultrasound (US)-mediated enhanced cellular delivery and imaging, in which GVs are living cell derived protein bubbles. GV-Au is rod-shaped sack-like structure around 230 nm, and displays improved stability and fluorescence ability compared with free Au NCs. Flow cytometry assay confirms the intracellular localization of Au NCs and GV-Au with a respective 2.20-fold enhanced cellular uptake post US treatment. Confocal images reveal the efficient cellular uptake of GV-Au under US impact, indicating that GV-Au is suitable for cellular and in vivo fluorescence imaging. Our strategy provides a new idea for efficient fluorescence imaging by penetrating cell membranes at the presence of US treatment.
