Over-Pressure Suppresses Ultrasonic-Induced Drug Uptake by Stringham, S. Briant

“…Rat colon cancer cells were exposed to ultrasound at various static pressures to examine the hypothesis that oscillating bubbles, also known as cavitating bubbles, permeabilize cells. Increasing pressure suppresses bubble cavitation activity; thus, if applied pressure were to reduce drug uptake, cell permeabilization would be strongly linked to bubble cavitation activity. …”
