Abstract
Emergency granulopoiesis (EG) is a response to severe inflammation in which increased neutrophils are generated in the hematopoietic tissue. Photolabeling is utilized to distinguish newly developed neutrophils from existing neutrophils. However, this technique requires a strong laser line and labels subsets of the existing neutrophils. Here we create a transgenic zebrafish line that expresses a time-dependent switch from green fluorescent protein (GFP) to red fluorescent protein (RFP) in neutrophils, which allows quantification of EG using simple GFP/RFP ratiometric imaging.
期刊介绍:
Accounts of Chemical Research presents short, concise and critical articles offering easy-to-read overviews of basic research and applications in all areas of chemistry and biochemistry. These short reviews focus on research from the author’s own laboratory and are designed to teach the reader about a research project. In addition, Accounts of Chemical Research publishes commentaries that give an informed opinion on a current research problem. Special Issues online are devoted to a single topic of unusual activity and significance.
Accounts of Chemical Research replaces the traditional article abstract with an article "Conspectus." These entries synopsize the research affording the reader a closer look at the content and significance of an article. Through this provision of a more detailed description of the article contents, the Conspectus enhances the article's discoverability by search engines and the exposure for the research.
