Theranostic effects on tumoral inflammation and growth. Effect of magnetoliposomal preparations containing (bottom) or not (top) ω-3 PUFA-EE on the time course of glioma development after implantation of C6 cells in the caudate nucleus of the mouse brain. T2w images were acquired as indicated in methods. Left panels: (day 0), central panels (day 3), right panels (day 6). Note the accumulation of magnetoliposomes loaded with PUFA-EE revealed by the darkening of the tumoral lesion (arrow) and the eventual disappearance of the tumor six days after treatment. Table 4 summarizes the results obtained with animals surviving day 6.
