| Outline of Final Research Achievements |
In this study, I succeeded in developing a system for non-invasively imaging the metastasis of cancer cells.
In addition, new knockout transgenic mice for noninvasive in vivo imaging targeted to metastatic cancer cells could be generated. It's transgenic mouse was generated using CRISPR / Cas9. The target gene was a Prkdc gene involved with T cells which are immune cells.
