We demonstrated the specificity of the probe to αvβ3 integrin with transmission electron microcopy (TEM) and magnetic resonance imaging (MRI). The in vivo targeting behavior of the probe was examined in 2 tumor models with different αvβ3 expression patterns by a 3.0T MRI scanner. MR imaging showed that R2* pseudo-color pictures of A549 lung cancer tumor was different from that of 3LL lung cancer. For A549 tumor, an homogeneous decrease of signal intensity was observed throughout the tumor, which was more evident in the periphery or central areas. Histological studies revealed that αvβ3 integrin was expressed both on the tumor vessel and tumor cells for A549 tumor. Our findings indicated that it was possible to noninvasively characterize the different αvβ3 expression pattern in lung cancers with arginine-glycine-aspartic acid (RGD) peptide conjugated ultra-small superparamagnetic iron oxide nanoparticles (RGD-USPIO) using a clinical 3.0T MR scanner. Nevertheless, the way of imaging targeting presentation of the probe differed in tumors with different αvβ3 expression patterns.Keywords: USPIO, RGD peptide, αvβ3 integrin, MR molecular imaging

Lipoprotein(a) (Lp[a]) is a circulating lipoprotein with proatherogenic, proinflammatory, and possibly prothrombotic properties. Circulating Lp(a) levels are largely genetically determined, in particular, by the LPA gene. As such, genetic variants at the LPA locus can serve as instrumental variables for investigating the clinical effects of circulating Lp(a) levels. Mendelian randomization (MR) studies have shown that elevated Lp(a) levels are associated with a higher risk of coronary artery disease1–3 and aortic valve stenosis.2–4 Evidence on the causal role of elevated Lp(a) levels for other atherosclerotic and specific valvular diseases is limited, although there are MR data supporting a positive association between genetically predicted Lp(a) levels and peripheral artery disease.2,3 Whether Lp(a) is causally related to thrombotic disease and cerebrovascular disease remains unclear.2,3,5 In this study, we used the UK Biobank cohort to perform an MR investigation into the causal effects of circulating Lp(a) levels on atherosclerotic, cerebrovascular, thrombotic, and valvular diseases. Because a recent MR study provided evidence of an inverse association of Lp(a) levels with Alzheimer disease,5 we additionally explored whether genetically predicted Lp(a) levels are associated with Alzheimer disease and dementia. ; Dr Larsson receives support from the Swedish Heart-Lung Foundation (Hjärt-Lungfonden, grant number 20190247), the Swedish Research Council (Vetenskapsrådet, grant number 2019-00977), and the Swedish Research Council for Health, Working Life and Welfare (Forte, grant number 2018-00123).
