Figure 1. In Vivo Imaging of MSC Homing to the Fracture Site.

Figure 1

Beginning two days following fracture, labeled MSC were detected in the injured right lower extremity in saline-treated animals (top row, n=5), with signal persisting until approximately seven days after injury. Alcohol-treated animals (bottom row, n=6) were observed to have a relative delay in signal acquisition until 3-4 days following injury, with signal again diminishing by one week following injury.
