The invention relates to novel biocompatible hybrid nanoparticles of very small size, useful in particular for diagnostics and / or therapy.The purpose of the invention is to offer novel nanoparticles which are useful in particular as contrast agents in imaging (e.g. MRD and / or in other diagnostic techniques and / or as therapeutic agents, which give better performance than the known nanoparticles of the same type and which combine both a small size (for example less than 20 nm) and a high loading with metals (e.g. rare earths), in particular so as to have, in imaging (e.g. MRI), strong intensification and a correct response (increased relaxivity) at high frequencies.Thus, the nanoparticles according to the invention, with diameter d1 between 1 and 20 nm, each comprise a polyorganosiloxane (POS) matrix including gadolinium cations optionally associated with doping cations; a chelating graft C1 DTPABA (diethylenetriaminepentaacetic acid bisanhydride) bound to the POS matrix by an —Si—C— covalent bond, and present in sufficient quantity to be able to complex all the gadolinium cations; and optionally another functionalizing graft Gf* bound to the POS matrix by an —Si—C— covalent bond (where Gf* can be derived from a hydrophilic compound (PEG); from a compound having an active ingredient PA1; from a targeting compound; from a luminescent compound (fluorescein).The method for the production of these nanoparticles and the applications thereof in imaging and in therapy also form part of the invention.

This invention provides the preparation and application of a class of artificial peptide transporters for promoting transmembrane delivery of peptide drugs. The general structural formula is as follows: The compound involved in this invention consists of three parts: (1) a diamide structure as an anion-binding unit, which binds to the carboxyl anion of the peptide molecule; (2) a crown ether as a cation-binding unit, which binds to the amino cation of the peptide molecule; and (3) a hydrophobic side chain: connecting the anion-binding unit and the cation-binding unit, so that the whole molecule can act as molecular tweezers to form a stable complex with the peptide drug and encapsulate it in a hydrophobic environment to promote its transmembrane transport. The compound obtained in this application has inexpensive raw materials, is easy to synthesize, and significantly improves the bioavailability of peptide drugs. It has shown significant synergistic anticancer activity in both in vitro and in vivo experiments, and therefore has great potential as a pharmaceutical excipient.
