Abstract(in Japanese) (See Japanese page)
Abstract(in English) Sonoporation is a technique that increases drug uptake of cells using ultrasound exposure. Recently, it has been shown that exposure of cells to pulsed ultrasound with microbubbles attached to the cells can improve efficiency of sonoporation; however, the mechanisms of this phenomenon have not yet been revealed. In this study, we carried out sonoporation of cultivated endothelial cells using pulsed ultrasound in the presence of bubbles, and the cell slight damage and repair was evaluated using fluorescence and scanning electron microscopes. Based on the results, we concluded that mechanical damage of cell membrane induced by mechanical bubble effects can enhance cell membrane permeability and that damage of cell membrane is repaired within 20 seconds.
