Abstract

Atherosclerosis Imaging and Therapy In article number 2200967, Xiaowei Wang, Karlheinz Peter, and co-workers show that theranostic nanoparticles made of air can deliver a near-infrared fluorescence dye, cyclodextrin, to be used as a contrast agent for ultrasound and fluorescence imaging and as ultrasound-responsive anti-atherosclerotic drug, achieving reduction of cholesterol in plaques after ingestion of nanoparticle by monocytes/macrophages.
