Bioluminescent bacterial imaging in vivo.
This video describes the use of whole body bioluminesce imaging (BLI) for the study of bacterial trafficking in live mice, with an emphasis on the use of bacteria in gene and cell therapy for cancer. Bacteria present an attractive class of vector for cancer therapy, possessing a natural ability to grow preferentially within tumors following systemic administration. Bacteria engineered to expres...
متن کاملPhotoactivable bioluminescent probes for imaging luciferase activityw
The firefly luciferase (fLuc) has been widely utilized for optical reporter gene imaging in biochemical assays, cell culture and living animals. fLuc can catalyze the oxidation of its substrate D-luciferin in the presence of O2, ATP, and Mg 2+ to generate the bioluminescence that can be imaged by a CCD camera. The luciferase based bioluminescence imaging technique displays low background and hi...
متن کاملIn vivo Dual Substrate Bioluminescent Imaging
Our understanding of how and when breast cancer cells transit from established primary tumors to metastatic sites has increased at an exceptional rate since the advent of in vivo bioluminescent imaging technologies. Indeed, the ability to locate and quantify tumor growth longitudinally in a single cohort of animals to completion of the study as opposed to sacrificing individual groups of animal...
متن کاملBioluminescent imaging of Trypanosoma cruzi infection.
Chagas disease, caused by infection with the protozoan parasite Trypanosoma cruzi, is a major public health problem in Central and South America. The pathogenesis of Chagas disease is complex and the natural course of infection is not completely understood. The recent development of bioluminescence imaging technology has facilitated studies of a number of infectious and non-infectious diseases....
متن کاملBioluminescent magnetic nanoparticles as potential imaging agents for mammalian spermatozoa.
BACKGROUND Nanoparticles have emerged as key materials for developing applications in nanomedicine, nanobiotechnology, bioimaging and theranostics. Existing bioimaging technologies include bioluminescent resonance energy transfer-conjugated quantum dots (BRET-QDs). Despite the current use of BRET-QDs for bioimaging, there are strong concerns about QD nanocomposites containing cadmium which exhi...
