Clinical applications in bladder and urether mainly focus on cancer detection and staging based on tissue morphology, image contrast, and OCT backscattering.

However, realizing the potential for high resolution requires remarkable stability in the tissue. Whereas the rigid structure of the skull facilitates high-resolution imaging of the brain, organs of the viscera are free to move with respiration and heartbeat, requiring additional apparatus for immobilization.

However, the role of the actin cytoskeleton in numerous cellular processes has been elucidated primarily in cultured cells. The next stage is to understand if these processes and the mechanisms that underpin them transfer from what is essentially a 2-dimensional cell living in isolation to cells in a 3-dimensional community—a tissue. Intravital microscopy holds the promise for being able to visualize the actin cytoskeleton in its native state—a tissue in situ. The greatest challenges at the moment are in developing tractable and meaningful in vivo experimental model systems capable of addressing specific questions about the molecular machinery involved in the assembly and function of complex cytoskeletal structures. In this article we discuss important considerations for establishing such in vivo models and showcase one such model system which has proven successful in revealing the in situ dynamics of actomyosin assembly on large secretory granules.","PeriodicalId":14512,"journal":{"name":"IntraVital","volume":"18 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2013-07-22","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"78337643","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

However, most current 2PM approaches are limited by the scarce availability of near-infrared (NIR) probes for multispectral time-lapse imaging, and by the use of a single excitation wavelength for multiple fluorophores. The recent availability of quantum dots (QDs) nanoparticles displaying unique optical properties have the potential to overcome this limitation but their suitability has not been yet comprehensively tested for 2PM imaging in vivo. In this study, we explored the use and delivery of NIR-emitting QDs into dendritic cells. Furthermore, we functionalized the surface of these nanoparticles with antibodies that recognize specific antigens expressed on the endothelium of the PLN microvasculature or their use as NIR plasma markers and examined the homeostatic recirculation of lymphocytes. This approach allowed to simultaneously visualize up to six different cell populations and lymphoid structures and identified varying lymphocyte migration patterns in defined microenvironments. Yet, QDs were more difficult to reproducibly couple to antibodies and showed a tendency to cause clustering of targeted antigens. Our data provide an in-depth analysis of the usefulness and shortcomings of QDs as imaging tools for anatomical landmarking in 2PM studies.","PeriodicalId":14512,"journal":{"name":"IntraVital","volume":"62 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2013-04-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"90247072","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

We used xenograft tumors of MDA-MB-231 cells as well as a low passage xenograft tumor from orthotopically injected patient-derived breast tumor cells.

Finally, although the two human tumors were derived from diverse genetic backgrounds, we found that their migratory tumor cells exhibited coordinated gene expression changes that led to the same end-phenotype of enhanced migration involving activating actin polymerization and myosin contraction.
