Bioluminescence imaging in live cells and animals.
The use of bioluminescent reporters in neuroscience research continues to grow at a rapid pace as their applications and unique advantages over conventional fluorescent reporters become more appreciated. Here, we describe practical methods and principles for detecting and imaging bioluminescence from live cells and animals. We systematically tested various components of our conventional fluores...
متن کاملImaging cerebral gene transcripts in live animals.
To circumvent the limitations of using postmortem brain in molecular assays, we used avidin-biotin binding to couple superparamagnetic iron oxide nanoparticles (SPIONs) (15-20 nm) to phosphorothioate-modified oligodeoxynucleotides (sODNs) with sequence complementary to c-fos and beta-actin mRNA (SPION-cfos and SPION-beta-actin, respectively) (14-22 nm). The Stern-Volmer constant for the complex...
متن کاملImaging cell biology in live animals: Ready for prime time
Time-lapse fluorescence microscopy is one of the main tools used to image subcellular structures in living cells. Yet for decades it has been applied primarily to in vitro model systems. Thanks to the most recent advancements in intravital microscopy, this approach has finally been extended to live rodents. This represents a major breakthrough that will provide unprecedented new opportunities t...
متن کاملREVIEWS PET Imaging of Transgene Expression
A vital step in transgenic animal study and gene therapy is the ability to assay the extent of transgene expression. Unfortunately, classic methods of assaying transgene expression require biopsies or death of the subject. We are developing techniques to noninvasively and repetitively determine the location, duration, and magnitude of transgene expression in living animals. This will allow inve...
