Imaging Changes in Lymphoid Organs In Vivo after Brain Ischemia with Three-Dimensional Fluorescence Molecular Tomography in Transgenic Mice Expressing Green Fluorescent Protein in T Lymphocytes

Stroke induces a strong inflammatory reaction in the brain and depresses the immune system. We sought to assess longitudinal changes in T-cell numbers in the lymphoid organs of living mice after brain ischemia. Middle cerebral artery occlusion was carried out in transgenic mice expressing green fluo...
