In Vivo Imaging: Shining A Light On Stem Cells In The Living Animal

This discussion explores advances in intravital imaging for visualizing stem cells, highlighting key discoveries and potential future developments; it reports no new experimental results.

This review discusses how recent advances in live imaging have revealed the dynamic and adaptable nature of stem cells during various biological processes, and reports no clinical results.

In this study, researchers showed that multiphoton microscopy with fluorescent protein tagging enables single-cell imaging and tracking in live transgenic mice, offering new insights into cell dynamics in stem cell research compared to traditional histological methods.

This review summarizes recent discoveries about how tissue-resident stem cells interact with their environments during normal conditions and after injury, without reporting new results.

This study observed nestin-GFP expressing stem cells in the hair follicle bulge of living mice using high-resolution in-vivo multiphoton tomography, allowing migration tracking within their natural skin environment.
