Abstract:The recently developed Coherent Anti-stokes Raman Scattering (CARS) microscopy and Stimulated Raman Scattering (SRS) microscopy have provided new methods to visualize the localization and regulation of biological molecules without the use of invasive and potentially perturbative labels. They allow rapid imaging of specific molecules with high resolution and sensitivity. These tools have been effectively applied to the study of lipid metabolism using Caenorhabditis elegans as a genetic model, unraveling new lipid storage phenotypes and their regulatory mechanisms. Here we review the underlying principle of CARS and SRS microscopy, as well as their recent applications in lipid biology research in C. elegans.
