Background technique
Cancer is most common one kind in malignant tumour, is the number one killer for threatening human health.Currently, global cancer
Swift and violent growing trend is presented in case, and new cases are mainly from developing country.Since high mortality, high disability rate and medical treatment are negative
It carries on a shoulder pole the features such as big, malignant tumour has become the public health problem or even social concern that one must pay much attention in the whole world.
In patient's lethal factor caused by cancer, metastases are most important factors.
Currently, the research to metastases mainly carries out with the toy using mouse, rat as representative.Specifically grinding
When studying carefully, tumor disease model is established with toy first, the physio-pathological characteristic of its metastases is then studied, grinds
The cancer diagnosis technology of sending out new, anti-tumor drug and therapeutic evaluation is carried out to drug.It is small in the method for various research toys
Animal whole body bioluminescence imaging technology can carry out the whole body of different time points to same a collection of toy, observe for a long time, substantially drop
Low experimental cost, and the reliable experimental data of repetition is obtained, while being in metastases early stage by highly sensitive molecular probe
