Abstract
Early and precise detection of solid tumor cancers is critical for improving therapeutic outcomes. In this regard, magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) has become a useful tool for tumor diagnosis and image-guided therapy. However, its effectiveness is limited by the shortcomings of clinically available gadolinium-based contrast agents (GBCAs), i.e. poor tumor penetration and retention, and safety concerns. Thus, we have developed a novel nanoparticulate contrast agent using a biocompatible terpolymer and lipids to encapsulate manganese dioxide nanoparticles (TPL-MDNP). The TPL-MDNP accumulated in tumor tissue and produced paramagnetic Mn2+ ions, enhancing T1-weight MRI contrast via the reaction with H2O2 rich in the acidic tumor microenvironment. Compared to the clinically used GBCA, Gadovist®1.0, TPL-MDNP generated stronger T1-weighted MR signals by over 2.0-fold at 30 % less of the recommended clinical dose with well-defined tumor delineation in preclinical orthotopic tumor models of brain, breast, prostate, and pancreas. Importantly, the MRI signals were retained for 60 min by TPL-MDNP, much longer than Gadovist®1.0. Biocompatibility of TPL-MDNP was evaluated and found to be safe up to 4-fold of the dose used for MRI. A robust large-scale manufacturing process was developed with batch-to-batch consistency. A lyophilization formulation was designed to maintain the nanostructure and storage stability of the new contrast agent.

Abstract
Bio-nano interface investigation models are mainly based on the type of proteins present on corona, bio-nano interaction responses and the evaluation of final outcomes. Due to the extensive diversity in correlative models for investigation of nanoparticles biological responses, a comprehensive model considering different aspects of bio-nano interface from nanoparticles properties to protein corona fingerprints appeared to be essential and cannot be ignored. In order to minimize divergence in studies in the era of bio-nano interface and protein corona with following therapeutic implications, a useful investigation model on the basis of RADAR concept is suggested. The contents of RADAR concept consist of five modules: 1- Reshape of our strategy for synthesis of nanoparticles (NPs), 2- Application of NPs selected based on human fluid, 3- Delivery strategy of NPs selected based on target tissue, 4- Analysis of proteins present on corona using correct procedures and 5- Risk assessment and risk reduction upon the collection and analysis of results to increase drug delivery efficiency and drug efficacy. RADAR grouping strategy for revisiting protein corona phenomenon as a key of success will be discussed with respect to the current state of knowledge.
