Studying the migratory behavior of immune cells is
pivotal to better understand the development of
immune-mediated pathologies, It has been already
demonstrated that fluorine (
19
F) MRI enables
spatio-temporal tracking of dendritic cells (DC)
in
vivo
. The aim of this study is to overcome the
19
F
sensitivity barriers by increasing the uptake of
19
F
nanoparticles in DC. Therefore we explored the impact of
aminophospholipids incorporated into the
19
F
nanoparticle on uptake by DC and on labeling. We show
how this incorporation resulted in fluorine uptake
increase confirmed by
19
F
spectroscopy and microscopy, with minor changes in the
migration capability of DC.
