The present work demonstrates feasibility of longitudinal visualization of neurogenesis in vivo with MRI gene reporter ferritin and fluorescent reporter eGFP expressed under the doublecortin promoter. Main source of the signal hypointensity in the brain neurogenic zones were mature and young neurons. Main source of the signal hypointensity in the ischemic lesion area were macrophages.
