MRI 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 کاملNoninvasive molecular imaging using reporter genes.
Noninvasive reporter gene imaging is a component of molecular imaging. Reporter imaging can provide noninvasive assessments of endogenous biologic processes in living subjects and can be performed using different imaging modalities. This review will focus on radionuclide-based reporter gene imaging as developed and applied in preclinical and clinical studies. Examples of different reporter syst...
متن کاملMolecular Imaging with Activatable Reporter Systems
Molecular imaging is a newly emerged multiple disciplinary field that aims to visualize, characterize and quantitatively measure biological processes at cellular and molecular levels in humans and other living systems. A reporter gene is a piece of DNA encoding reporter protein, which presents as a readily measurable phenotype that can be distinguished easily from the background of endogenous p...
متن کاملHas nanomedicine lived up to its promise?
Nanomedicine for diagnosis and treatment of disease, as a discipline has been around for several years, with the first nanotherapeutic product being approved in 1995. Worldwide its importance was recognized with the setting up of several nanomedicine centres in 2004-2006. Many of these centres were set up to accelerate the speed of translation of the research. In this article we review, with a ...
متن کاملNeo-oogenesis: Has its existence been proven?
It was long believed that mammals are born with a fixed number of primordial follicles, each of which encloses an oocyte arrested at the diplotene step of meiotic prophase. Arising at or after birth, small numbers of primordial follicles become activated each day and enter a folliculogenic growth phase during which follicles either degenerate by atresia or complete maturation, resulting in ovul...
