Enabling Multiphoton and Second Harmonic Generation Imaging in Paraffin-Embedded and Histologically Stained Sections
Nonlinear microscopy, namely multiphoton imaging and second harmonic generation (SHG), is an established noninvasive technique useful for the imaging of extracellular matrix (ECM). Typically, measurements are performed in vivo on freshly excised tissues or biopsies. In this article, we describe the effect of rehydrating paraffin-embedded sections on multiphoton and SHG emission signals and the ...
متن کاملPlastination of stained sections of the human brain.
A method is described which combines staining of human brain tissue with subsequent plastination of the sections. Staining of 1-4 mm thick frozen sections with astra blue or aldehydefuchsin provides a sharp contrast between white and grey matter. The plastination results in sections which are durable and convenient to handle. These preparations may be used for teaching purposes in neuroanatomy ...
متن کاملDetermination of collagen content within picrosirius red stained paraffin-embedded tissue sections using fluorescence microscopy
Picrosirius red (PSR) staining is a commonly used histological technique to visualize collagen in paraffin-embedded tissue sections. PSR stained collagen appears red in light microscopy. However it is largely unknown that PSR stained collagen also shows a red fluorescence, whereas live cells have a distinct green autofluorescence. Both emission patterns can be detected using standard filter set...
متن کاملPhysiological roles of aquaporin-4 in brain.
Aquaporin-4 (AQP4) is one of the most abundant molecules in the brain and is particularly prevalent in astrocytic membranes at the blood-brain and brain-liquor interfaces. While AQP4 has been implicated in a number of pathophysiological processes, its role in brain physiology has remained elusive. Only recently has evidence accumulated to suggest that AQP4 is involved in such diverse functions ...
متن کاملMolecular Dynamics Simulation of Water Transportation through Aquaporin-4 in Rat Brain Cells
This paper investigates the mechanism of water transportation through aquaporin-4(AQP4) of ratbrain cells by means of molecular dynamics simulation with CHARMM software. The AQP4 wasembedded into a bilayer made of Dimystroilphosphatylcholine (DMPC). The results illustrate thatwater molecules move through AQP4's channel with change of orientation of oxygen of eachwater molecule.
