通过激光扫描共聚焦显微镜,利用不同种类(波长)的激光研究拟南芥叶片气孔发生与发育。结果表明,利用紫外激光(351nm)扫描可以清楚观察到拟南芥表皮各种细胞及其发生发育的形态变化,包括表皮毛细胞、副卫细胞、保卫细胞、铺垫表皮细胞等。气孔发生过程中,首先原表皮细胞不对称分裂产生拟分生组织和副卫细胞,接着分化出保卫细胞母细胞,进一步发育形成保卫细胞,最终形成气孔器。气孔分化完成后,保卫细胞在紫外激光下不产生荧光,但利用蓝光激发(488nm)辅助荧光素染色,可清晰地看到保卫细胞。结果表明,激光扫描共聚焦显微镜在拟南芥叶表皮细胞形态研究上有独特的功能。 相似文献

The oral apparatus of the ciliate protozoan Paramecium primaurelia, a single-celled eukaryotic organism, is a highly organized structure whose arrangement is of important taxonomic, phylogenetic and developmental significance. This paper analyses oral structures by means of a confocal laser scanning optical microscope (CLSM), which allows their three-dimensional visualization and measurement. The extraction of the intrinsic three-dimensional information related to the biological objects under investigation can in turn be related to their functional state, according to the classical paradigms of structure to function relationship identification. In our experiments, we acquired different data sets. These are optical slices of the biological sample under investigation, acquired in a confocal situation, through epi-illumination, in reflection. For comparison with conventional microscopy, two-dimensional images were acquired via a standard TV camera coupled to the microscope itself. The volumes obtained by piling up the slices were rendered through different techniques, some of them directly implemented on the workstation controlling the CLSM system, some of them on a SUN SPARCstation 1, where the original data were transferred via an Ethernet link. In this last instance, original software has been developed for the visualization and animation of the three-dimensional structures, under UNIX and X-Window, according to a ray-tracing algorithm. 相似文献

In ciliated protozoa, most nutrients are internalized via phagocytosis by food vacuole formation at the posterior end of the buccal cavity. The uptake of small-sized molecules and external fluid through the plasma membrane is a localized process. That is because most of the cell surface is internally covered by an alveolar system and a fibrous epiplasm, so that only defined areas of the cell surface are potential substance uptake sites. The purpose of this study is to analyze, by fluorescence confocal laser scanning microscopy, the relationship between WGA (Triticum vulgaris agglutinin) and dextran internalization in Paramecium primaurelia cells blocked in the phagocytic process, so that markers could not be internalized via food vacuole formation. WGA, which binds to surface constituents of fixed and living cells, was used as a marker for membrane transport and dextran as a marker for fluid phase endocytosis. After 3 min incubation, WGA-FITC is found on plasma membrane and cilia, and successively within small cytoplasmic vesicles. After a 10-15 min chase in unlabeled medium, the marked vesicles decrease in number, increase in size and fuse with food vacuoles. This fusion was evidenced by labeling food vacuoles with BSA-Texas red. Dextran enters the cell via endocytic vesicles which first localize in the cortical region, under the plasma membrane, and then migrate in the cytoplasm and fuse with other endocytic vesicles and food vacuoles. When cells are fed with WGA-FITC and dextran-Texas red at the same time, two differently labeled vesicle populations are found. Cytosol acidification and incubation in sucrose medium or in chlorpromazine showed that WGA is internalized via clathrin vesicles, whereas fluid phase endocytosis is a clathrin-independent process. 相似文献

We have developed a method for measurement of plasma membrane water permeability (P
f) in intact cells using laser scanning confocal microscopy. The method is based on confocal recording of the fluorescence
intensity emitted by calcein-loaded adherent cells during osmotic shock. P
f is calculated as a function of the time constant in the fluorescence intensity change, the cell surface-to-volume ratio and
the fractional content of the osmotically active cell volume. The method has been applied to the measurement of water permeability
in MDCK cells. The cells behaved as linear osmometers in the interval from 100 to 350 mosM. About 57% of the total cell volume
was found to be osmotically inactive. Water movement across the plasma membrane in intact MDCK cells was highly temperature
dependent. HgCl2 had no effect on water permeability, while amphotericin B and DMSO significantly increased P
f values. The water permeability in MDCK cells transfected with aquaporin 2 was an order of magnitude higher than in the intact
MDCK cell line. The water permeability of the nuclear membrane in both cell lines was found to be unlimited. Thus the intranuclear
fluid belongs to the osmotically active portion of the cell. We conclude that the use of confocal microscopy provides a sensitive
and reproducible method for measurement of water permeability in different types of adherent cells and potentially for coverslip-attached
tissue preparations.

Detection of diaminobenzidine reactions using scanning laser confocal reflectance microscopy 总被引:3,自引:0,他引:3
We used scanning laser confocal microscopy to visualize sites of peroxidatic activity as detected by the diaminobenzidine (DAB) reaction. Imaging was achieved by employing the reflectance mode of this instrument. Intense reflectance was detected after DAB localization of endogenous granule-associated myeloperoxidase in neutrophils and of the exogenous tracer horseradish peroxidase in mouse oocytes. Detection of DAB reaction products with confocal reflectance microscopy will probably be an important addition to the utility of this cytochemical technique. 相似文献

Male and female Schistosoma japonicum worms have dissimilar appearances in their final host. In this study, a morphometric and morphological assessment of whole worms derived from unisexual and mixed infections in mice was conducted using confocal laser scanning microscopy. Worms from mixed infections showed significant morphological changes between 15 and 25 days post-infection (PI). On the fifteenth day PI, 33% of males had formed the conspicuous gynecophoric canal, but only 8% of them had testicular lobes containing a few germinative cells; 13% of females had incipient ovaries with a few immature ovarian cells inside. On the twentieth day PI, the testicular lobes contained more germinative cells in all male worms, while female worms presented vitelline glands. On the twenty-fifth day PI, more germinative cells were observed in the male testicular lobes, and differentiated cells were present in the female ovaries. All worms had fully developed reproductive organs from 30 days PI onwards. Morphometric analysis showed significant differences between mixed and unisexual infections at 35 days PI. Ovaries of worms from unisexual infections contained cells in one stage of maturation and vitelline glands had undifferentiated cells. Our study of S. japonicum provides a detailed comparison of different morphological traits from worms of mixed and unisexual infections throughout development. 相似文献

Paddock SW 《Molecular biotechnology》2000,16(2):127-149
The laser scanning confocal microscope (LSCM) is an essential tool for many biomedical imaging applications at the level of the light microscope. The basic principles of confocal microscopy and the evolution of the LSCM into today's sophisticated instruments are outlined. The major imaging modes of the LSCM are introduced including single optical sections, multiple wavelength images, three-dimensional reconstructions, and living cell and tissue sequences. Practical aspects of specimen preparation, image collection, and image presentation are included along with a primer on troubleshooting the LSCM for the novice. 相似文献

In confocal microscopy, the object is illuminated and observed so as to rid the resulting image of the light from out-of-focus planes. Imaging may be performed in the reflective or in the fluorescence mode. Confocal microscopy allows accurate and nondestructive optical sectioning in a plane perpendicular or parallel to the optical axis of the microscope. Further digital three-dimensional treatments of the data may be performed so as to visualize the specimen from a variety of angles. Several examples illustrating each of these possibilities are given. Three-dimensional reconstitution of nuclear components using a cubic representation and a ray-tracing based method are also given. Instrumental and experimental factors can introduce some bias into the acquisition of the 3-D data set: self-shadowing effects of thick specimens, spherical aberrations due to the sub-optimum use of the objective lenses and photobleaching processes. This last phenomenon is the one that most heavily hampers the quantitative analysis needed for 3-D reconstruction. We delineate each of these problems and indicate to what extent they can be solved. Some tips are given for the practice of confocal microscope and image recovery: how to determine empirically the thickness of the optical slices, how to deal with extreme contrasts in an image, how to prevent artificial flattening of the specimens. Finally, future prospects in the field are outlined. Particular mention of the use of pulsed lasers is made as they may be an alternative to UV-lasers and a possible means to attenuate photodamage to biological specimens. 相似文献
