In Vivo Visualization and Monitoring of Viable Neural Stem Cells Using Noninvasive Bioluminescence Imaging in the 6-Hydroxydopamine-Induced Mouse Model of Parkinson Disease

Transplantation of neural stem cells (NSCs) has been proposed as a treatment for Parkinson disease (PD). The aim of this study was to monitor the viability of transplanted NSCs expressing the enhanced luciferase gene in a mouse model of PD in vivo. The PD animal model was induced by unilateral injec...
