Design of Nuclear Magnetic Resonance Molecular Probes for Hyperpolarized Bioimaging

Yohei Kondo et al. Angew Chem Int Ed Engl. .

Abstract

Nuclear hyperpolarization has emerged as a method to dramatically enhance the sensitivity of NMR spectroscopy. By application of this powerful tool, small molecules with stable isotopes have been used for highly sensitive biomedical molecular imaging. The recent development of molecular probes for hyperpolarized in vivo analysis has demonstrated the ability of this technique to provide unique metabolic and physiological information. This review presents a brief introduction of hyperpolarization technology, approaches to the rational design of molecular probes for hyperpolarized analysis, and examples of molecules that have met with success in vitro or in vivo.

Keywords: NMR spectroscopy; biosensors; chemical probes; dynamic nuclear polarization; hyperpolarization.
