Monitoring the fate of the transplanted stem cells in a timely manner is considered one of the main limitations for long-standing success of stem cell transplants. Imaging methods that visualize and track stem cells<i> in vivo</i> non-invasively in real time are helpful towards the development of successful cell transplantation techniques. Novel molecular imaging methods which are non-invasive particularly such as MRI have been of great recent interest. Hence, mouse models which are of clinical relevance have been studied by injecting contrast agents used for labelling cells such as super-paramagnetic iron-oxide (SPIO) nanoparticles for cellular imaging. The MR techniques which can be used to generate positive contrast images have been of much relevance recently for tracking of the labelled cells. Particularly when the off-resonance region in the vicinity of the labeled cells is selectively excited while suppressing the signals from the non-labeled regions by the method of spectral dephasing. Thus, tracking of magnetically labelled cells employing positive contrast<i> in vivo</i> MR imaging methods in a burn mouse model in a non-invasive way has been the scope of this study. The consequences have direct implications for monitoring labeled stem cells at some stage in wound healing. We suggest that our approach can be used in clinical trials in molecular and regenerative medicine.展开更多

This study investigated the conditions of its synthesis and characterized its structure using infrared and 1 H NMR spectroscopies, and gel-permeation chromatography. Its solubility in alkaline solution differed greatly before and after decomposition. The results of thermal gravimetric analysis confirmed the formation of an active ester ether resin of p-hydroxyphenylacetic acid and novolac resin. The resin had acidolysis activity at room temperature and pyrolysis activity at high temperatures (140-200°C) and could be used in the imaging layer of a positive thermal plate for computer-to-plate processes as an inhibitor/accelerator to improve its alcohol resistance, alkali resistance, sensitivity, lattice point reducibility, and developing tolerance.展开更多
