Magnetic resonance molecular imaging with Gd-DTPA-(sLe^X). In knockout (KO) mice there was increasing effects of targeted contrast Gd-DTPA-(sLe^X) on tissue T₁ levels in the stroke compared to the contralateral control hemisphere not observed with non-targetted contrast or Gd-DTPA. *P < 0.05 and **P < 0.01. In wild type (WT) animals the administration of Gd-DTPA-(sLe^X) or Gd-DTPA resulted in a decrease in T₁ in the stroke compared to contralateral control hemisphere in both groups but there no statistical difference between groups.
