Fig. 2From: Non-invasive imaging reveals conditions that impact distribution and persistence of cells after in vivo administrationMRI and immunofluorescence images of mMSCs in the brains and kidneys. In vivo and post mortem T2*-weighted images of the a brains and b kidneys of mice pre- and post administration of SPION-labelled mMSCs via the IV or IC route. c Epifluorescence of Zsgreen (green) and nuclei (blue) of a single kidney glomerulus (top) and the corresponding Prussian blue image (bottom), demonstrating that cells and SPIONs co-localised to the same spatial location. d Overlay of confocal microscopy images of Isolectin-IB 4 staining (red), ZsGreen (green) and nuclei (blue). Tissue sections were obtained from the brain (left) or kidney (right) of mice culled within 5 h after having received cells IC. Scale bars correspond to 10 μmBack to article page
