Detection of Dysplastic Intestinal Adenomas Using a Fluorescent Folate Imaging Probe
Macrophages have long been recognized as a prominent component of tumors. Activated macrophages overexpress folate receptors and we used this phenomenon to image inflammatory reactions in colon dysplasia using a fluorescent folate probe (FFP). APC Δ468 mice injected with FFP showed fluorescent adeno...
