The field of molecular and cellular imaging allows molecules and cells to be visualized in
vivo non-invasively. It has uses not only as a research tool but in clinical settings as well, for …

Biomarker studies have shown that expression of the T-cell coregulatory ligand PDL1 on
tumor cells correlates with clinical responsiveness to the PD1 antibody nivolumab. Here, we …

Objective: Pancreatitis occurs as an extraintestinal complication of inflammatory bowel
disease (IBD), but the cause is poorly understood. Mucin 1 (MUC1) is overexpressed in an …

Macrophages have an important role in the pathogenesis of most chronic inflammatory
diseases. A means of non-invasively quantifying macrophage migration would contribute …

Alterations in mucin expression and glycosylation are associated with cancer development.
Underglycosylated mucin-1 (uMUC1) is overexpressed in most malignant adenocarcinomas …

Fluorine (19 F) MRI of perfluorocarbon-labeled cells has become a powerful technique to
track the migration and accumulation of cells in living organisms. It is common to label cells …

Stromal vascular fraction (SVF) cells are used clinically for various therapeutic targets. The
location and persistence of engrafted SVF cells are important parameters for determining …

Purpose To investigate whether the magnitude of in vivo fluorine 19 (19F) magnetic
resonance (MR) imaging signal is associated with subsequent development of colitis …

Herpes simplex esophagitis (HSE) is commonly identified in immunosuppressed patients. It
is rare among immunocompetent patients and almost all of the reported cases are due to …

Traditionally, cell-mediated immune responses to vaccination in animal models are
evaluated by invasive techniques such as biopsy and organ extraction. We show here that …
