We established a high penetration, high sensitivity
infrared-fluorescent protein(IFP) for fluorescent
imaging and synthesized the relatively high temporal and
spatial resolution MR sensing contrast agent (SCA):]-galactosidase(]-gal)
MR probe for producing the MR molecular imaging with a
dual-imaging reporter animal model. The modality was
used to verify the role of HOXA gene subfamily in
gastric cancer development .It might also be useful in
evaluating the effects of various therapeutic
approaches. Because of the advantages offered by a
combination of optical and MR images, it is hopeful that
this technique will move quickly from in vitro and
animal study to clinical trials.
