Molecular Imaging in Experimental Therapeutics of Cancer
The increasing development of novel gene and targeted therapies for treating tumors has necessitated the development of imaging approaches to determine their efficacy in preclinical animal models. This overview will provide selected examples of using imaging for quantitating tumor cell kill (anatomical and diffusion MRI), early treatment-induced changes in tumor cellularity/metabolism (diffusio...
متن کاملAdvances in Molecular Imaging of Locally Delivered Targeted Therapeutics for Central Nervous System Tumors
Thanks to the recent advances in the development of chemotherapeutics, the morbidity and mortality of many cancers has decreased significantly. However, compared to oncology in general, the field of neuro-oncology has lagged behind. While new molecularly targeted chemotherapeutics have emerged, the impermeability of the blood-brain barrier (BBB) renders systemic delivery of these clinical agent...
متن کاملTargeted Molecular Imaging
Molecular imaging aims to visualize the cellular and molecular processes occurring in living tissues, and for the imaging of specific molecules in vivo, the development of reporter probes and dedicated imaging equipment is most important. Reporter genes can be used to monitor the delivery and magnitude of therapeutic gene transfer, and the time variation involved. Imaging technologies such as m...
متن کاملTargeted Therapeutics
Deciphering the molecular underpinnings of a disease is often only the first step toward developing an effective treatment. The path from target identification to a successful therapeutic can be filled with numerous hurdles that call for creative strategies. This Select highlights recent advances in using gene therapy and engineered cells to treat cancers and chronic heart disease. Their succes...
متن کاملClinical applications of perfluorocarbon nanoparticles for molecular imaging and targeted therapeutics
Molecular imaging is a novel tool that has allowed non-invasive diagnostic imaging to transition from gross anatomical description to identification of specific tissue epitopes and observation of biological processes at the cellular level. This technique has been confined to the field of nuclear imaging; however, recent advances in nanotechnology have extended this research to include ultrasoun...
