Imaging of mouse bone marrow hematopoietic cells with a new luminescent inorganic nanocrystals-quantum dots

Objective: To observe the labeling and imaging of mouse bone marrow hematopoietic cells with the new luminescent inorganic nanocrystals-quantum dots and study the effect of quantum dots on the proliferation and differentiation of hematopoietic cells. Methods: The bioconjugate of green quantum dots with mouse transferrin was used to label the mouse bone marrow hematopoitic cells both in vitro and in vivo, the influence of the bioconjugate to the CFU-GM was also observed. Results: The quantum dots bioconjugate could label most mouse bone marrow hematopoietic cells with strong fluorescence intensity and good optical and chemical stability and no influence to the proliferating and differentiating function of hematopoitic progenitors at the same time. Conclusion: Quantum dots exhibit extremely desirable properties for cell imaging. In the future, quantum dots will play a vital role in the study of cell biology.
