CA 2403090

The invention relates to the whole-body external optical imaging of gene expression. Specifically, methods for whole-body external optical imaging of gene expression and methods for evaluating a candidate protocol or drug for treating diseases or disorders using a fluorophore operatively linked to the promoter of a gene and external optical imaging are provided herein. Methods to screen for substances or genes that regulate target promoters are also provided.

L'invention concerne l'imagerie optique externe en corps entier de l'expression génique. L'invention concerne notamment des procédés d'imagerie optique corps entier de l'expression génique, ainsi que des méthodes d'évaluation d'un protocole ou d'un médicament candidat destiné au traitement de maladies ou de dysfonctionnements, qui font intervenir un fluorophore fonctionnellement lié au promoteur d'un gène et l'imagerie optique externe. L'invention porte, en outre, sur des procédés de criblage de substances ou de gènes régulant des promoteurs cibles.
