One essential requirement for more sensitive gadolinium-based MRI contrast agents is to slow the molecular tumbling of the gadolinium(III) ion, which increases the gadolinium's relaxivity, or the ability to speed up the NMR relaxation of nearby water molecules. One route to this is through conjugation to high-molecular weight polymers such as dendrimers. In this work, amine functionalized TREN-bis(1,2-HOPO)-TAM-ethylamine and TREN-bis(1-Me-3,2-HOPO)-TAM-ethylamine ligands have been synthesized and attached to biocompatible 40 kDa esteramide (EA) and poly-l-lysine based (PLL) dendrimers capable of binding up to eight gadolinium complexes. These conjugates have T1 relaxivities of up to 38.14 ± 0.02 mM-1s-1 per gadolinium at 37 °C, corresponding to relaxivities of up to 228 mM-1s-1 per dendrimer molecule. This relaxivity expressed on a “per Gd” basis is several times that of the small molecule complexes, and an order of magnitude higher than that of current commercial agents. Due to their high performance and low toxicity these macromolecules may constitute an attractive complement to currently available gadolinium(III) based contrast agents.
