Abstract

Phase-Change Peptide Nanoemulsions Real-time monitoring of immune cells in tissues holds promise to improve disease diagnosis and therapy. In article number 2301673, Scott H. Medina and co-workers report the ultrasound imaging of macrophages in situ using phase-changing peptide nanoemulsions. After phagocytosis, the emulsion contrast agent can be converted into echogenic bubbles to enable precise and continuous ultrasound monitoring of macrophage movement in tissues.
