Bangwen Xie et al., “Necrosis avid near infrared fluorescent cyanines for imaging cell death and their use to monitor therapeutic efficacy in mouse tumor models.” Oncotarget (2015)

Dr Bangwen Xie’s paper finds, for the first time, two fluorescent dyes which selectively bind to the proteins of dead cancer cells, in both lab and living conditions. This finding has clinical significance in that these dyes could be used in cancer diagnosis and prognosis, and in monitoring early-stage tumour response to chemotherapy.
