Journal ArticleDOI
Adipose-derived adult stromal cells heal critical-size mouse calvarial defects.
Catherine M. Cowan,Yun-Ying Shi,Oliver Aalami,Yu-Fen Chou,Carina Mari,Romy Thomas,Natalina Quarto,Christopher H. Contag,Benjamin M. Wu,Michael T. Longaker +9 more
TL;DR: Data show that ADAS cells heal critical-size skeletal defects without genetic manipulation or the addition of exogenous growth factors.
Journal ArticleDOI
Advances in In Vivo Bioluminescence Imaging of Gene Expression
TL;DR: In vivo bioluminescence imaging has been combined with in vivo fluorescence imaging methods, which has enabled the real-time study of immune cell trafficking, of various genetic regulatory elements in transgenic mice, and of in vivo gene transfer.
Journal ArticleDOI
MYC inactivation uncovers pluripotent differentiation and tumour dormancy in hepatocellular cancer
Catherine M. Shachaf,Andrew M. Kopelman,Constadina Arvanitis,Asa Karlsson,Shelly Beer,Stefanie Mandl,Michael Bachmann,Alexander D. Borowsky,Boris H. Ruebner,Robert D. Cardiff,Qiwei Yang,J. Michael Bishop,Christopher H. Contag,Dean W. Felsher +13 more
TL;DR: It is reported that inactivation of the MYC oncogene is sufficient to induce sustained regression of invasive liver cancers and how oncogenic inactivation may reverse tumorigenesis in the most clinically difficult cancers is shown.
Journal ArticleDOI
Photonic detection of bacterial pathogens in living hosts
Christopher H. Contag,Pamela R. Contag,James I. Mullins,James I. Mullins,Stanley D. Spilman,David K. Stevenson,David A. Benaron +6 more
TL;DR: This paper developed a method for detecting bacterial pathogens in a living host and used this method to evaluate disease processes for strains of Salmonella typhimurium that differ in their virulence for mice.
