Multi-Parametric Live Cell Microscopy of 3D Tissue Models (book)

By -

Dr. Ruslan Dmitriev edited the book 'Multi-parametric live cell microscopy of 3D tissue models', recently published by Springer publishing house (eBook available from 30-Oct-2017, printed version available from Nov-2017), as part of renown Advances on Experimental Medicine and Biology series (vol. 1035). 
The book brings together some world-known experts and pioneers in the area of multi-parametric live cell microscopy and imaging of 3D tissue models in tissue engineering, neurobiology, stem cell and cancer biology, to provide and introduction and easy-to-follow experimental methods. The instrumentation and data analysis, scaffold and types of 3D tissue models, choice of biosensor design as well as examples of applications and methods are included in this book.

Members of Metabolic Imaging Group and Biophysics and Bioanalysis Lab contributed in three chapters covering:

-Overview of 3D models and available biosensors (Chapter 4):

Affordable microscopy of spheroid oxygenation (video protocol)

Our lab has published a new protocol paper, this time with the video, in the Journal of Visualized Experiments (JoVE)! In this research method paper, we report the use of red/ near-infrared emitting biocompatible nanosensors to monitor oxygenation of the live multicellular spheroids (made of one or more cell types), together with the tracers of cell death. While this methodology is typically available only for users with 'high-end' PLIM microscopes and alike, we show that using of ratiometric readout with the red and near infrared emitting fluorescent nanosensors makes this possible on broadly available 'widefield' fluorescence microscope platforms. This method helps comparing oxygenation of spheroids, assessing this in a long-term and kinetic assays, comparing their variability and viability, essential in follow-up 3D printing applications. This is the first article in our collection ' Quantitative live cell imaging of 3D models' , guest-edited together with

Together with Prof. Margarida Barroso (Albany Medical College), we guest edit a collection of video protocols, hosted by the Journal of Visualised Experiments ( JoVE ), and  dedicated to the quantitative live cell imaging in 3D .  We expect bringing together some leaders and innovators in various aspects of the quantitative live fluorescence microscopies applied to ex vivo animal models, organoids and 3D engineered tissue blocks. The collection, which just has been started, can be assessed here .
