Bioluminescence imaging of β cells and intrahepatic insulin gene activity under normal and pathological conditions.

Bioluminescence imaging of β cells and intrahepatic insulin gene activity under normal and pathological conditions.

In diabetes research, bioluminescence imaging (BLI) has been applied in studies of β-cell impairment, development, and islet transplantation. To develop a mouse model that enables noninvasive imaging of β cells, we generated a bacterial artificial chromosome (BAC) transgenic mouse in which a mouse 2...
