Color-coded imaging of spontaneous vessel anastomosis in vivo.
Vessel anastomosis is important in tumor angiogenesis as well as for vascularization therapy for ischemia and other diseases. We report here the development of a color-coded imaging model that can visualize the anastomosis between blood vessels of red fluorescent protein (RFP)-expressing vessels in vascularized Gelfoam® previously transplanted into RFP transgenic mice and then re-transplanted i...
متن کاملColor-coded fluorescent protein imaging of angiogenesis: the AngioMouse models.
We have utilized multicolored fluorescent proteins to develop three imaging models of tumor angiogenesis. In one model, the nonluminous induced capillaries are clearly visible by contrast against the very bright tumor green fluorescent protein (GFP) fluorescence examined either intravitally or by whole-body imaging in real time. Intravital images of an orthotopic model of human pancreatic tumor...
متن کاملChanging Roles of Matrix Metalloproteases and Their Inhibitors, TIMPs, During Tumor Progression and Angiogenesis
Inhibition of matrix-metalloproteinases (MMPs) by tissue inhibitors of metalloproteinases (TIMPs) has been shown in vivo to decrease metastasis and tumor-associated angiogenesis. Our laboratory is interested in understanding the role of these proteins at the pericellular microenvironment of tumor and endothelial cells. Secretion of MMPs by tumor cells enables the migration, invasion and metasta...
متن کاملConstruction of Various γ34.5 Deleted Fluorescent-Expressing Oncolytic herpes Simplex type 1 (oHSV) for Generation and Isolation of HSV-Based Vectors
Background: Oncolytic herpes simplex virus (oHSV)-based vectors lacking γ34.5 gene, are considered as ideal templates to construct efficient vectors for (targeted) cancer gene therapy. Herein, we reported the construction of three single/dually-flourescence labeled and γ34.5-deleted, recombinant HSV-1 vectors for rapid generation and easy selection/isolation of different HSV-Based v...
متن کاملمهار بیان ژن GFP به وسیله تداخل RNA (RNAi) در دودمان سلولی کارسینومای جنینی P19
Introduction: RNA interference (RNAi) is a phenomenon of gene silencing that uses double-stranded RNA (dsRNA), specifically inhibits gene expression by degrading mRNA efficiently. The mediators of degradation are 21- to 23-nt small interfering RNAs (siRNA). The use of siRNAs as inhibitors of gene expression has been shown to be an effective way of studying gene function in mammalian cells. Ai...
