Visualizing hippocampal neurons with in vivo two-photon microscopy using a 1030 nm picosecond pulse laser
In vivo two-photon microscopy has revealed vital information on neural activity for brain function, even in light of its limitation in imaging events at depths greater than several hundred micrometers from the brain surface. We developed a novel semiconductor-laser-based light source with a wavelength of 1030 nm that can generate pulses of 5-picosecond duration with 2-W output power, and a 20-M...
متن کاملDeep in vivo two-photon microscopy with a low cost custom built mode-locked 1060 nm fiber laser.
Here we demonstrate that a mode-locked ytterbium fiber laser for two-photon fluorescence microscopy can be built for $13,000. The laser emits at a wavelength of 1060 nm with a usable average power of 1 W at a repetition rate of 40 MHz and a compressed pulse width of 81 fs at the sample. The laser is used to obtain deep in vivo two-color images of layer-V pyramidal neurons expressing YFP and vas...
متن کاملIn vivo two-photon laser-scanning microscopy of Ca2+ dynamics in visual motion-sensitive neurons.
We applied two-photon laser-scanning microscopy (TPLSM) to motion-sensitive visual interneurons of the fly to study Ca(2+) dynamics in vivo at a higher spatial and temporal resolution than possible with conventional fluorescence microscopy. Based on a custom-built two-photon microscope, we performed line scans to measure changes in presynaptic Ca(2+) concentrations elicited by visual stimulatio...
متن کاملMulti-point scanning two-photon excitation microscopy by utilizing a high-peak-power 1042-nm laser.
The temporal resolution of a two-photon excitation laser scanning microscopy (TPLSM) system is limited by the excitation laser beam's scanning speed. To improve the temporal resolution, the TPLSM system is equipped with a spinning-disk confocal scanning unit. However, the insufficient energy of a conventional Ti:sapphire laser source restricts the field of view (FOV) for TPLSM images to a narro...
متن کاملVisualizing context-dependent calcium signaling in encephalitogenic T cells in vivo by two-photon microscopy.
In experimental autoimmune encephalitis (EAE), autoimmune T cells are activated in the periphery before they home to the CNS. On their way, the T cells pass through a series of different cellular milieus where they receive signals that instruct them to invade their target tissues. These signals involve interaction with the surrounding stroma cells, in the presence or absence of autoantigens. To...
