High-Resolution Intravital Microscopy
Cellular communication constitutes a fundamental mechanism of life, for instance by permitting transfer of information through synapses in the nervous system and by leading to activation of cells during the course of immune responses. Monitoring cell-cell interactions within living adult organisms is crucial in order to draw conclusions on their behavior with respect to the fate of cells, tissu...
متن کاملIntravital Imaging of the Immune System
I. Parker Department of Neurobiology and Behavior , University of California, Irvine , Irvine , CA 92697-4561 , USA e-mail: [email protected] Abstract Two-photon imaging of the immune system has revealed an active world of in vivo intercellular dynamics. Rather than static bystanders, immune cells have been re-cast as active participants in the local orchestration of immune responses. Their activ...
متن کاملSupernormal vision and high-resolution retinal imaging through adaptive optics.
Even when corrected with the best spectacles or contact lenses, normal human eyes still suffer from monochromatic aberrations that blur vision when the pupil is large. We have successfully corrected these aberrations using adaptive optics, providing normal eyes with supernormal optical quality. Contrast sensitivity to fine spatial patterns was increased when observers viewed stimuli through ada...
متن کاملIntravital Imaging
Until recently, the idea of observing life deep within the tissues of a living mouse, at a resolution sufficient to pick out cellular behaviors and molecular signals underlying them, remained a much-coveted dream. Now, a new era of intravital fluorescence microscopy has dawned. In this Primer, we review the technologies that made this revolution possible and demonstrate how intravital imaging i...
متن کاملIntravital high-resolution optical imaging of individual vessel response to photodynamic treatment.
Intravital imaging using confocal microscopy facilitates high-resolution studies of cellular and molecular events in vivo. We use this, complemented by Doppler optical coherence tomography (OCT), to assess blood flow in a mouse dorsal skin-fold window chamber model to image the response of individual blood vessels to localized photodynamic therapy (PDT). Specific fluorescent cell markers were u...
