Iron labeling and pre-clinical MRI visualization of therapeutic human neural stem cells in a murine glioma model.

Iron labeling and pre-clinical MRI visualization of therapeutic human neural stem cells in a murine glioma model.

Treatment strategies for the highly invasive brain tumor, glioblastoma multiforme, require that cells which have invaded into the surrounding brain be specifically targeted. The inherent tumor-tropism of neural stem cells (NSCs) to primary and invasive tumor foci can be exploited to deliver therapeu...
