“…This imaging signal mimics successful cell engrafting but actually represents cell death. The problem is well recognized, also with other imaging techniques as magnetic cell labeling for MR imaging [76], [77], [78], [79]. Some studies have thus focused on generating a functional imaging signal to detect death of the implanted cells be compartmentalization effects [80].…”

“…Recent studies on the heart and leg showed that magnetic nanoparticles were not cleared quickly after cell death, with the cellular viability being confirmed by other methods, indicating that in certain cases, the persistent MR signals may be misleading. [160][161][162] Given that macrophages would phagocytize dead or dying SPIO-labeled cells, the endogenous macrophages can be mistaken for transplanted stem cells. There can also be extracellular iron that remains in the tissue instead of being removed or taken up by endogenous cells.…”

“…However, long-term observation has revealed that SPIO within the tissue and contrast on MRI persists despite the death of transplanted stem cells [96,144,145]. In this context, SPIOs offer robust and specific information about the distribution of labeled cells; however, long-term monitoring of the fate of stem cells requires cautious interpretation.…”
