Noninvasive near-infrared live imaging of human adult mesenchymal stem cells transplanted in a rodent model of Parkinson’s disease

Abstract: Background:We have previously shown that human mesenchymal stem cells (hMSCs) can reduce toxin-induced neurodegeneration in a well characterized rodent model of Parkinson's disease. However, the precise mechanisms, optimal cell concentration required for neuroprotection, and detailed cell tracking need to be defined. We exploited a near-infrared imaging platform to perform noninvasive tracing following transplantation of tagged hMSCs in live parkinsonian rats. Methods: hMSCs were labeled both with a membrane i… Show more

“…Among this type of imaging technique, near infrared (NIR) imaging achieves a higher penetration depth of up to several centimeters and provides more specific signals by capturing light of a NIR wavelength. [ 109 110 ] Thus, this technique holds broad application potential in the in vivo imaging of physiological, metabolic, and molecular functions. NIR imaging requires NIR probes to emit a light signal under excitation.…”
