Article Snippet: For in vivo photoacoustic imaging, NPC-bearing BALB/c mice were treated with APIN solutions (100 μL, 20 mg/kg) through intravenous injection ( n = 3) and PA imaging is accomplished by using an animal in vivo photoacoustic imaging system (Vevo LAZR, FUJIFILM Visual Sonics).

Techniques: In Vivo, Staining, TUNEL Assay, Immunofluorescence
