A comparative analysis of EGFR-targeting antibodies for gold nanoparticle CT imaging of lung cancer.
(PloS one, 2018-01)Computed tomography (CT) is the standard imaging test used for the screening and assessment of suspected lung cancer, but distinguishing malignant from benign nodules by CT is an ongoing challenge. Consequently, a large ... -
CD45+ Cells Present Within Mesenchymal Stem Cell Populations Affect Network Formation of Blood-Derived Endothelial Outgrowth Cells.
(Biores Open Access, 2015)Mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) and endothelial progenitor cells (EPCs) represent promising cell sources for angiogenic therapies. There are, however, conflicting reports regarding the ability of MSCs to support network formation ... -
Dual-energy micro-CT functional imaging of primary lung cancer in mice using gold and iodine nanoparticle contrast agents: a validation study.
(PLoS One, 2014)PURPOSE: To provide additional functional information for tumor characterization, we investigated the use of dual-energy computed tomography for imaging murine lung tumors. Tumor blood volume and vascular permeability were ... -
In vivo small animal micro-CT using nanoparticle contrast agents.
(Front Pharmacol, 2015)Computed tomography (CT) is one of the most valuable modalities for in vivo imaging because it is fast, high-resolution, cost-effective, and non-invasive. Moreover, CT is heavily used not only in the clinic (for both diagnostics ... -
Stiffness of Protease Sensitive and Cell Adhesive PEG Hydrogels Promotes Neovascularization In Vivo.
(Ann Biomed Eng, 2017-06)Materials that support the assembly of new vasculature are critical for regenerative medicine. Controlling the scaffold's mechanical properties may help to optimize neovascularization within implanted biomaterials. However, ...
