Book Live Imaging In Zebrafish  Insights Into Development And Disease

Download or read book Live Imaging In Zebrafish Insights Into Development And Disease written by Karuna Sampath and published by World Scientific. This book was released on 2010-08-30 with total page 162 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The zebrafish embryo has now been well established as an organism of choice for the genetic and cell biological basis of vertebrate development. Large-scale forward genetic screens together with reverse genetic tools have resulted in a flood of new information on the regulation of vertebrate development. Furthermore, the unique transparency of the zebrafish embryo allows unprecedented access to cells and tissues and many important discoveries on gene function have already been made using live imaging techniques in this organism. This book successfully brings together state-of-the-art methodologies of live imaging, such as the use of fluorescence correlation spectroscopy (FCS), that will be useful for investigators in the field of developmental biology to address their favorite problem using cell biological approaches in the zebrafishOne of the key reasons that has made the zebrafish such a popular vertebrate model is its transparency and its potential for high-resolution cell biology and imaging. However, there is no comprehensive and up-to-date guide to the new “live imaging” tools that can now be used in the zebrafish. Furthermore, there are many new microscopy methods that have been adapted for use in zebrafish, and this book can be a good guide even for scientists already familiar with the imaging advantages of this model.

Book Imaging  Manipulation and Optogenetics in Zebrafish

Download or read book Imaging Manipulation and Optogenetics in Zebrafish written by Itia Amandine Favre‐Bulle and published by Springer. This book was released on 2018-08-12 with total page 86 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The work described here investigates the advantages and limitations of using laser light for the deep in-vivo illumination and micromanipulation of the neuronal system in zebrafish. To do so, it combines and develops novel optical methods such as optogenetics, light sheet microscopy and optical micromanipulation. It also demonstrates, for the first time, that directional and focused laser beams can successfully be used to target large objects at considerable depth in a living organism to exert purely optical force – in this case on otoliths (ear stones) – and create fictive vestibular stimuli in a stationary animal. The behavioural study and simultaneous imaging of the whole brain reveal the location of the brain cells specific to each ear stone. Elucidating these fundamental neural processes holds substantial value for basic neuroscience researchers, who still have only a vague grasp of how brain circuits mediate perception. As such, it represents highly innovative research that has already led to high-impact publications and is now being intensively pursued.

Book excerpt: This open access book describes marked advances in imaging technology that have enabled the visualization of phenomena in ways formerly believed to be completelyimpossible. These technologies have made major contributions to the elucidation of the pathology of diseases as well as to their diagnosis and therapy. The volume presents various studies from molecular imaging to clinical imaging. It also focuses on innovative, creative, advanced research that gives full play to imaging technology inthe broad sense, while exploring cross-disciplinary areas in which individual research fields interact and pursuing the development of new techniques where they fuse together. The book is separated into three parts, the first of which addresses the topic of visualizing and controlling molecules for life. Th e second part is devoted to imaging of disease mechanisms, while the final part comprises studies on the application of imaging technologies to diagnosis and therapy. Th e book contains the proceedings of the 12th Uehara International Symposium 2017, “Make Life Visible” sponsored by the Uehara Memorial Foundation and held from June 12 to 14, 2017.

Book Whole brain Voltage Imaging in Larval Zebrafish Using Light field Microscopy

Download or read book Whole brain Voltage Imaging in Larval Zebrafish Using Light field Microscopy written by Zeguan Wang and published by . This book was released on 2020 with total page 68 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Monitoring pan-neuronal electrical activity in awake vertebrates is a yet-to-be-achieved goal in neuroscience that will facilitate our efforts to understand how the brain processes information and mediates behaviors. Here we present Sparse Decomposition Light-Field Microscopy (SDLFM), a light-field microscopy method with improved resolution for volumetric neural activity imaging, and computational and experimental evaluations of its capacity for whole-brain voltage imaging in larval zebrafish. The work in this thesis includes three parts. First, we designed and implemented SDLFM and demonstrated its cellular-resolution ability in larval zebrafish expressing pan-neuronal GCaMP6. Second, we simulated the voltage imaging and the computation processes of SDLFM for zebrafish brains and found that in order to achieve a >0.9 correlation coefficient between the extracted SDLFM signals and the real voltage signals with our current hardware and voltage indicators, the proportion of the neurons randomly labeled with fluorescence in a zebrafish brain must be reduced to below 20%. Finally, we imaged live brains of zebrafish larvae expressing pan-neuronal Voltron525-ST and transient SomArchon at a volume rate of 307 Hz with a volumetric field-of-view of ~700 [mu]mx~400 [mu]mx~300 [mu]m. Although spontaneous spikes were traced in these recordings, we speculate some signals might result from noise and artifacts. In summary, we have developed SDLFM, which allows high-speed whole-brain imaging at cellular resolution in larval zebrafish. New camera sensors with higher quantum efficiency and larger dynamic range, and new voltage indicators with increased brightness and sensitivity are needed to achieve the signal-to-noise ratio required to record the voltage activity from a densely labeled fish brain.

Book Sourcebook of Models for Biomedical Research

Download or read book Sourcebook of Models for Biomedical Research written by P. Michael Conn and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2008-03-07 with total page 756 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The collection of systems represented in this volume is a unique effort to reflect the diversity and utility of models used in biomedicine. That utility is based on the consideration that observations made in particular organisms will provide insight into the workings of other, more complex systems.
