3D superresolution microscopy on the immunological synapse at isotropic precision below 15 nm
نویسندگان
چکیده
T-cells are part of our adaptive immune system and responsible for recognition antigens in bodies. T-cell activation is triggered upon binding receptor (TCR) to major histocompatibility complex loaded with antigenic peptide (pMHC) which presented on the surface antigen presenting cells (APC). According kinetic segregation model activation, topography plays a large role process. In this study we have applied 3D superresolution method spatial organization within immunological synapse isotropic localization precision below 15 nm.

3D superresolution microscopy by supercritical angle detection.
We present a fundamentally new approach to 3D superresolution microscopy based on the principle of surface-generated fluorescence. This near-field fluorescence is strongly dependent on the distance of fluorophores from the coverslip and can therefore be used to estimate their axial positions. We established a robust and simple implementation of supercritical angle fluorescence detection for sin...
متن کاملSuperresolution imaging of biological nanostructures by spectral precision distance microscopy.
For the improved understanding of biological systems on the nanoscale, it is necessary to enhance the resolution of light microscopy in the visible wavelength range beyond the limits of conventional epifluorescence microscopy (optical resolution of about 200 nm laterally, 600 nm axially). Recently, various far-field methods have been developed allowing a substantial increase of resolution ("sup...
متن کاملInformation transfer at the immunological synapse
Antigen-specific activation of T lymphocytes requires the interaction of their clonally distributed T-cell receptors with plasma membrane ligands composed of foreign peptide antigens bound to major histocompatibility complex molecules. For proliferation and differentiation to ensue, a variety of other adhesive and accessory proteins must also interact with their counter-receptors on the antigen...
متن کاملEditorial: Molecular Dynamics at the Immunological Synapse
The immunological synapse (IS) is a specialized cell–cell adhesion that mediates antigen acquisition , lymphocyte activation, and effector function. Seminal studies showed a structure composed of stable central and peripheral supramolecular activation clusters (cSMAC and pSMAC) organized at the interface of interacting helper T lymphocytes and B lymphocytes. The T cell receptor (TCR) and signal...
متن کاملThe Immunological Synapse T. Klemmensen: The Immunological Synapse
The induction of a proper adaptive immune response is dependent on the correct transfer of information between antigen-presenting cells (APCs) and antigen-specific T cells. Defects in information transfer may result in the development of diseases, e.g. immunodeficiencies and autoimmunity. A distinct 3-dimensional supramolecular structure at the T cell/APC interface has been suggested to be invo...
