USPIO-CD133 Ab specifically targeted to ENU-induced rat brain tumor cells.

Notes: (A) Immunofluorescence staining of CD133 expression in microglia (CD68) and oligodendrocytes (oligodendrocyte-specific protein; [OSP]) of ENU-induced rat brain tumors was observed under fluorescent microscope at 200× (Ai and Aii) and 400× (Aiii and Aiv) magnification. (B) Detection of CD68 and CD133 expression in USPIO-CD133 Ab labeled cells of ENU-induced rat brain tumors. Double staining of CD133 (brown) and USPIO-CD133 Ab (Prussian blue staining) cells (indicated with arrows in Biv) are shown in the brain sections at 400× (Bi and Bii) and 1,000× (Biii and Biv) magnification.

Abbreviations: DAPI, 4′,6-diamidino-2-phenylindole; ENU, N-ethyl-N-nitrosourea; USPIO-CD133 Ab, ultrasmall superparamagnetic iron oxide conjugated with anti-CD133 antibodies.
