Research Abstract |
We have developed MagA, which is an MR reporter gene, overexpressing transgenic mouse, and pursued the possibility of tracking bone marrow derived cells in the course of glioblastoma development by MRI. We were able to confirm that bone marrow cells from MagA transgenic mouse accumulate more iron than wild type mouse and that those cells showed hypo-intense signals under MRI observation.
