Comparison of Teratoma Formation between Embryonic Stem Cells and Parthenogenetic Embryonic Stem Cells by Molecular Imaging
Figure 3
Visualization of the teratoma growth and VEGFR2 expression in vivo. (a) Rluc imaging of teratoma progression of Rluc signals showed that the teratoma formed in pES-RR group was smaller than that in ES-RR group. Quantification analysis demonstrated there was a significant difference between the two groups. (b) Fluc imaging and quantification analysis of VEGFR2 expression in transgenic mice revealed enhanced angiogenesis in ES cell-derived teratomas. compared with the ES-RR group.
