Open AccessTriple negative aggressive phenotype controlled by miR-135b and miR-365: new theranostics candidates
Triple negative breast cancer (TNBC) accounts for about a fifth of all breast cancers and includes a diverse group of cancers. The heterogeneity of TNBC and the lack of target receptors on the cell surface mak...

PET biomarkers and probes for treatment response assessment in glioblastoma: a work in progress
Several pharmacological approaches are used for glioblastoma (GBM) treatment, each hinging on the triggering of different biochemical or functional processes; the development of specific and sensitive PET proc...

Open AccessMicroRNA-567 dysregulation contributes to carcinogenesis of breast cancer, targeting tumor cell proliferation, and migration
We demonstrated that Hsa-miR-567 expression is significantly downregulated in poor prognosis breast cancer, compared to better prognosis breast cancer, having a role in the control of cell proliferation and migra...

In Vivo Imaging of Lymph Node Migration of MNP- and 111In-Labeled Dendritic Cells in a Transgenic Mouse Model of Breast Cancer (MMTV-Ras)
The authors present a protocol for the in vivo evaluation, using different imaging techniques, of lymph node (LN) homing of tumor-specific dendritic cells (DCs) in a murine breast cancer model.

Labeling Protocols for In Vivo Tracking of Human Skeletal Muscle Cells (HSkMCs) by Magnetic Resonance and Bioluminescence Imaging
We propose herein labeling protocols for multimodal in vivo visualization of human skeletal muscle cells (HSkMCs) by MRI and BLI to investigate the survival, localization, and proliferation/differentiation of the...

In vivo imaging of immune cell trafficking in cancer
Tumour establishment, progression and regression can be studied in vivo using an array of imaging techniques ranging from MRI to nuclear-based and optical techniques that highlight the intrinsic behaviour of d...

Development of a bicistronic vector for multimodality imaging of estrogen receptor activity in a breast cancer model: preliminary application
The aim of this study was to develop a cellular model for the concurrent imaging of reporter genes expression by using positron emission tomography (PET) and bioluminescence imaging (BLI) for the assessment of...

Anatomical and biochemical investigation of primary brain tumours
Cancerous transformation entails major biochemical changes including modifications of the energy metabolism of the cell, e.g. utilisation of glucose and other substrates, protein synthesis, and expression of r...
