Abstract:
The endothelium bares a paramount therapeutic and diagnostic significance in vascular disease. The current work presents a novel strategy based on the use of superparamagnetic nanoparticles to obtain an endothelial cell lining on the luminal surface of vascular conduits, which can be detected non-invasively in a clinical Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI) scanner. Human umbilical vein endothelial cells (HUVECs) were prelabeled with clinically approved superparamagnetic nanoparticles. Cell viabilit...     »
