The optical molecular imaging of inflammation is an emerging strategy for interventional medicine and diagnostics. The host's inflammatory response and adaptation to acute and chronic diseases provides unique signatures that have the potential to guide interventions. Thus, there are emerging a suite of molecular imaging and sensing approaches for a variety of targets in this area. This review will focus on two key cellular orchestrators that dominate this area, neutrophils and macrophages, with recent developments in molecular probes and approaches discussed.
炎症的光学分子成像技术是介入医学和诊断学领域中一种新兴的策略。宿主对急慢性疾病的炎症反应和适应性表现出独特的特征,这些特征有可能指导干预措施。因此,针对该领域各种靶点,涌现出了一系列分子成像和传感方法。本综述将聚焦于主导该领域的两个关键细胞协调因子——中性粒细胞和巨噬细胞,并讨论分子探针和方法的最新进展。
