Research Abstract |
To image the neovasculature in the ischemic portion, VEGF-aQDs complexes and mouse ischemic limb model were structured. Injected VEGF-aQDs were attached to the wall of the neovasculature about 3. 3 times higher compared to the aQDs (control). Injected VEGF-aQDs were also attached to the wall of the neovasculature about 2. 4 times higher compared to the wall of the normal vessel. We analyzed the distribution of VEGF receptor on the wall of the neovasculature.
