We sought to determine if gadolinium (Gd)-containing lipid-based nanoparticles (NPs) targeting the macrophage scavenger receptor-B (CD36) improve magnetic resonance (MR) detection and characterization of human atherosclerosis. The ability to detect atherosclerosis with MR imaging using gadolinium Gd-containing lipid-based NPs targeting macrophages may enable early detection of high-risk lesions prior to an atherothrombotic event. Gd-containing lipid-based NPs targeting macrophages improved MR detection of murine atherosclerosis. Gd-containing NPs, anti-CD36 NPs and Fc-NPs were created. Macrophages were incubated with fluorescent targeted and non-targeted NPs to determine uptake via confocal microscopy and inductively coupled plasma mass spectroscopy (ICP-MS) quatified Gd uptake. Human aortic specimens were harvested at autopsy. Using a 1.5 T scanner, T1, T2, and PDW 3-dimensional scans were performed along with post-contrast scans after 24 h incubation. T1 and cluster analysis were performed and compared with immunohistopathology. The NPs had a mean diameter of 125 nm, 14,900 Gd-ions, and relaxivity was 37 mM-1s-1 at 1.5T and 37°C. Confocal microscopy and ICP-MS demonstrated significant in vitro macrophage uptake of targeted NPs while non-targeted NPs had minimal uptake. On T1 imaging, targeted NPs increased CNR by 52.5% which was significantly great than Fc-NPs (CNR increased 17.2%) and non-targeted NPs (CNR increased 18.7%) (p=0.001). Confocal fluorescent microscopy showed that NPs target resident macrophages while the untargeted NPs and Fc-NPs are found diffusely throughout the plaque. Targeted NPs had a greater signal intensity increase in the fibrous cap compared with (p<0.001) while non-targeted NPs and Fc-NPs had a greater increase in the lipid core (p<0.01). Macrophage-specific (CD36) NPs bind human macrophages and improved MR detection and characterization of human aortic atherosclerosis. Thus, macrophage-specific NPs could help identify high-risk human plaque prior to the development of an atherothrombotic event.
