Cardiac Cell Tracking with MRI Reporter Genes: Welcoming a New Field
Research into cell therapy based cardiac repair and regeneration has experienced explosive growth over the last decade, however further progress is hindered by an inability to serially and non-invasively image cell survival and fate decisions following implantation. Recent advances in magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) reporter gene techniques have enabled in vivo imaging of cell survival, prolif...
متن کاملMRI reporter genes.
Noninvasive molecular imaging of dynamic processes has benefited tremendously from the use of reporter genes. These genes encode for proteins that emit light, bind radiolabeled probes, or, as covered in this review, modulate MRI contrast. Reporter genes play a pivotal role in monitoring cell trafficking, gene replacement therapy, protein-protein interactions, neuronal plasticity, and embryonic ...
متن کاملMRI Reporter Genes for Noninvasive Molecular Imaging.
Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) is one of the most important imaging technologies used in clinical diagnosis. Reporter genes for MRI can be applied to accurately track the delivery of cell in cell therapy, evaluate the therapy effect of gene delivery, and monitor tissue/cell-specific microenvironments. Commonly used reporter genes for MRI usually include genes encoding the enzyme (e.g., tyrosi...
متن کاملA "new" reporter in the field of imaging reporter genes: correlating gene expression and function of the sodium/iodide symporter.
By 1995, more than 150 human gene therapy clinical trials were in progress in the United States alone (1). More than 10 y later, gene delivery in humans remains a considerable challenge for numerous potential applications, because it is often limited by poor delivery specificity, inadequate transfer efficiency, and lack of correlation between expression and function. The limitations of clinical...
