      Membership identification is the first step in determining the properties of a star cluster. Low-mass members in particular could be used to trace the dynamical history, such as mass segregation, stellar evaporation, or ...

    • Combined Small Interfering RNA Therapy and In Vivo Magnetic Resonance Imaging in Islet Transplantation 

      Wang, Ping; Yigit, Mehmet V; Medarova, Zdravka Ognyanova; Wei, Lingling; Dai, Guangping; Schuetz, Christian; Moore, Anna V. (American Diabetes Association, 2011)
      OBJECTIVE Recent advances in human islet transplantation are hampered by significant graft loss shortly after transplantation and inability to follow islet fate directly. Both issues were addressed by utilizing a dual-purpose ...

    • GLP-1R–Targeting Magnetic Nanoparticles for Pancreatic Islet Imaging 

      Wang, Ping; Yoo, Byunghee; Yang, Jingsheng; Zhang, Xueli; Ross, Alana; Pantazopoulos, Pamela; Dai, Guangping; Moore, Anna (American Diabetes Association, 2014)
      Noninvasive assessment of pancreatic β-cell mass would tremendously aid in managing type 1 diabetes (T1D). Toward this goal, we synthesized an exendin-4 conjugated magnetic iron oxide–based nanoparticle probe targeting ...

    • Molecular Imaging of Stem Cell Transplantation for Liver Diseases: Monitoring, Clinical Translation, and Theranostics 

      Wang, Ping; Petrella, Francesco; Nicosia, Luca; Bellomi, Massimo; Rizzo, Stefania (Hindawi Publishing Corporation, 2016)
      Stem cell transplantation has been investigated to rescue experimental liver failure and is promising to offer an alternative therapy to liver transplantation for liver diseases treatment. Several clinical studies in this ...
