Because iRFP is brighter, stronger and more stable than previous fluorescent proteins, these advantages allow the great deep tissue penetration and minimal autofluorescence <i>in vivo<\/i>; that is, ubiquitous iRFP transgenic mice (RBRC10067 and RBRC10068) are useful for <i>in vivo<\/i> imaging (2). Actually, depositor (Dr. Miwa) and his colleague established <i>in vivo<\/i> murine atherosclerosis imaging system by using iRFP transgenic mice (3). They reported that this novel imaging approach predictably enable to monitor lesion progression without an invasive method or injection of imaging reagents.<\/p>\n<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/tbody>\n<\/table>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<table style=\"max-width:700px;\">\n<tbody>\n<tr>\n<td style=\"border: 0px; background-color: #ffffff; text-align: right; white-space: nowrap;\" valign=\"top\">Depositor<\/td>\n<td style=\"border: 0px; background-color: #ffffff; text-align: center; white-space: nowrap;\" valign=\"top\">:<\/td>\n<td style=\"border: 0px; background-color: #ffffff; text-align: left; font-weight: bold;\" colspan=\"2\" valign=\"top\">Yoshihiro Miwa, Ph.D.<br \/>\nDepartment of Molecular Pharmacology (Fluorescence Bioimaging)<br \/>\nFaculty of Medicine, University of Tsukuba<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td style=\"border: 0px; background-color: #ffffff; text-align: right; white-space: nowrap;\" valign=\"top\">Strain name<\/td>\n<td style=\"border: 0px; background-color: #ffffff; text-align: center; white-space: nowrap;\" valign=\"top\">:<\/td>\n<td style=\"border: 0px; background-color: #ffffff; text-align: left; font-weight: bold;\" colspan=\"2\" valign=\"top\">B6.Cg-c\/c Tg(CAG-iRFP)#846Utr<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td style=\"border: 0px; background-color: #ffffff; text-align: right; white-space: nowrap;\" valign=\"top\">RBRC No.<\/td>\n<td style=\"border: 0px; background-color: #ffffff; text-align: center; white-space: nowrap;\" valign=\"top\">:<\/td>\n<td style=\"border: 0px; background-color: #ffffff; text-align: left;\" colspan=\"2\" valign=\"top\">RBRC10067<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td style=\"border: 0px; background-color: #ffffff; text-align: right; white-space: nowrap;\" valign=\"top\">Strain name<\/td>\n<td style=\"border: 0px; background-color: #ffffff; text-align: center; white-space: nowrap;\" valign=\"top\">:<\/td>\n<td style=\"border: 0px; background-color: #ffffff; text-align: left; font-weight: bold;\" colspan=\"2\" valign=\"top\">B6.Cg-c\/c Tg(CAG-iRFP)#867Utr<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td style=\"border: 0px; background-color: #ffffff; text-align: right; white-space: nowrap;\" valign=\"top\">RBRC No.<\/td>\n<td style=\"border: 0px; background-color: #ffffff; text-align: center; white-space: nowrap;\" valign=\"top\">:<\/td>\n<td style=\"border: 0px; background-color: #ffffff; text-align: left;\" colspan=\"2\" valign=\"top\">RBRC10068<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td style=\"border: 0px; background-color: #ffffff; text-align: right; white-space: nowrap;\" rowspan=\"7\" valign=\"top\">References<\/td>\n<td style=\"border: 0px; background-color: #ffffff; text-align: center; white-space: nowrap;\" rowspan=\"7\" valign=\"top\">:<\/td>\n<td style=\"border: 0px; background-color: #ffffff; text-align: left;\" valign=\"top\">[1]<\/td>\n<td style=\"border: 0px; background-color: #ffffff; text-align: left;\" valign=\"top\">Filonov GS, Piatkevich KD, Ting LM, Zhang J, Kim K, Verkhusha VV., Bright and stable near-infrared fluorescent protein for in vivo imaging. <a href=\"https:\/\/www.nature.com\/articles\/nbt.1918\"><em>Nat Biotechnol.<\/em>; 29(8): 757-61, 2011.<\/a><\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td style=\"border: 0px; background-color: #ffffff; text-align: left;\" valign=\"top\">[2]<\/td>\n<td style=\"border: 0px; background-color: #ffffff; text-align: left;\" valign=\"top\">Tran MT, Tanaka J, Hamada M, Sugiyama Y, Sakaguchi S, Nakamura M, Takahashi S, Miwa Y.
