作者宣称，他们有没有竞争经济利益。

TED的方法的优点和缺点已进行了广泛的讨论，在最近的出版物34,35。 TED情况下，与上述的其他方法相比，细胞破坏和灌注的问题。此外，需要强调两个方面。 TED ER钙成像的原则要求（1）目标TED的载体构建的帮助下，内质网腔，和（2）的高效率和低亲和力的合成AM酯优先释放活性羧酸酯酶表达内质网腔的钙染料。 1。 TED载体构建 图3总?...

为了解决ER钙的生理反应，我们开发了一个新的策略，以提高合成钙敏感染料进入ER诱捕。该方法能够直接的，非破坏性的实时监控自由ER钙在细胞外钙离子的存在。 ER钙的功能和信令钙信号被发现的不同类型的细胞， 如肌肉细胞，神经元和神经胶质细胞，其功能范围从调解肌肉收缩，参与突触传递的学习和记忆1,2。游离钙离子浓度的变化有很高的科学价值，因为钙参与调节基因转录，细胞增殖，神经细胞的兴奋性，细胞死亡和其他细胞信号事件1-7。所有这些细胞钙信号连接功能，并有助于细胞内钙存储动态8-10。 所有的钙信号中的一个共同特点是钙外空间之间的流动，细胞质和细胞器，主要是ER和线粒体。这会导致这些细胞器内的钙离子浓度的动态变化，由不同的信令组件感测。一般情况下，内质网中的钙浓度的范围在100至800微米之间，在细胞质中的钙离子浓度接近100纳米，和在细胞外空间中的浓度大约是1-2毫米。因此，存在很高的化学驱动力细胞质中的钙离子流向2,9,10。 最常研究的ER-源性钙信号依赖于G-蛋白偶联受体（GPCR），然后激活磷脂酶C（PLC）的刺激。反过来，PLC在生产肌醇1,4,5 -三磷酸肌醇（IP 3）1。 IP 3结合后其REC在ER膜的eptor（IP 3， 图1（记录）），钙离子从内质网腔中释放。在历史上，第一IP-3介导从内质网释放钙-间接即使-测量胰腺腺泡细胞由Streb 等的。于1983年11。此出版物建议在第一次涉及乙酰胆碱，磷脂酶C和IP 3的信号级联。这种方式的钙离子的释放一般被称为IP 3引起的钙离子的释放（IiCR）（ 图1）。依赖激酶激活磷脂酶Cγ受体酪氨酸激酶生长因子和神经营养因子的作用ER钙信号后IP海拔3 12。钙海拔在除了IiCR，可介导的离子型钙条目，例如兰尼再通过电压门控钙通道（CA V），以及随后的钙诱导钙释放（CICR）与其受体（RyR的）。 IiCR和CICR生理链接库操纵的钙进入（SOCE）。 SOCE包括STIM（基质相互作用的分子），这是一个传感器，用于ER钙离子释放的动作。激励信号已被证明，通过瞬时受体电位通道色氨酸（Trp），13，14 Orai钙离子通道和电压门控钙离子通道15（ 图1）刺激细胞外钙离子条目。 ER钙丢失是动态救出由的肉瘤内质网钙ATP酶（SERCA），积极的泵钙背到急诊室的作用。阻断药物，如毒胡萝卜素SERCA ER钙胞质室推出了一个连续亏损。该ER钙"泄漏"Sec61蛋白复合物16,17（ 图1）配合物，如ER膜内孔隙所造成的。 贝里奇1998年，出版了一本模型中，"神经元内的神经元模型"，这ħ建议的原则生理作用的ER结合神经元钙5。该模型认为，存在一个连续的的ER膜系统形成一个细胞内的"形象"的神经细胞质膜5。这个二进制真核生物膜系统是自称是快与慢的神经元钙信号的时间与空间整合的基本前提。钙信号发生随之而来，随后在不同的相同的神经元树突棘或赋予细胞的胞体或细胞核通过急诊室，在那里他们总结了5,18。然后，其总和可能会影响神经元的兴奋性，调节基因转录或集成的信号级联。因此，ER支持钙信号的整合。这一概念的一个先决条件是所声称的一些研究，并已被证明至少为躯体-D在单个细胞中的雌激素受体的连续性endritic地区和短距离轴突预测19-21。是否有内长轴突预测ER连续性是一个有争议的问题。 来测量其流量超过ER膜游离钙的战略钙信号的最频繁监测在细胞质中22,23。因此，它可以很容易地区别是否的Ca 2 +流进入细胞质从细胞外或细胞内储存6,24。为了克服这个限制，方法策略直接ER钙成像已经制定出来。总之，使用下列策略:（1）ER-针对性的基因工程蛋白质指标25-27。基于蛋白质的低亲和力的Ca 2 +的指标，使用的生物发光蛋白水母发光蛋白结合钙传感蛋白或GFP。这些基因工程的Ca 2 +的指标（GECIS）定位到内质网的信号肽的帮助下，积极地保持在ER中使用的保留和检索动机。常见的ER的Ca 2 +指标上卡梅里安原则基础卡默莱昂YC4.3 26,28; 29分裂YC7.3ER卡梅里安，卡梅里安D1 30。 （2） 直接酯酶基染料装载AM酯低亲和力的Ca 2 + 指标 31,32 AM衍生工具的指示剂染料（MAG-Fura2-AM，MAG-Fluo4-AM-AM Fluo5N）通过生物膜的亲脂性，钙不敏感的状态。然后，在细胞质中，以及在ER中，内源性酯酶对AM-酯基裂开，释放的Ca 2 +指示剂，留下一定量的活性染料在细胞质中，在ER。因此，这种方法在ER中的钙离子浓度高的条件下是有用的，只要细胞内游离钙离子的浓度保持低于去低亲和性的指标的TECTION限制，特别是在特征钙信号（ 例如，纳米低μM）。 （3）AM酯组合质膜通透性32加载，任何剩余的胞浆Ca 2 +指示剂除去质膜通透性与少量的"温和"的清洁剂（ 例如皂甙）在人工细胞内的缓冲。因此，细胞内的膜的可能的刺激， 例如 ，与在细胞内的缓冲液中的IP 3，可直接通过质膜中的"孔"。 （4） 胞液中透析，根据全细胞配置和同时测量的Ca 2 +在ER腔体和的胞质溶胶32,33。细胞被第一次装载有低亲和力的Ca 2 +的指示器（ 例如，幅度- Fura2上午，比例，UV光）。之后，与帮助的补丁吸管，任何其它细胞色素osolic低亲和性的Ca 2 +指示剂透析的胞液中的缓冲液含有高亲和力的Ca 2 +的指示器（ 例如萤光-3，可见光）。这一战略使细胞质和ER派生的信号同步记录。 （5） 目标酯酶诱导染料加载 8,34。甲羧酸酯酶（CES）上被定位到内质网的内腔中，并提供了一个高的酯酶活性对AM-酯的形式存在的低亲和力的Ca 2 +的指标的有效捕获。 有针对性的酯酶诱导染料吸附量（TED） 为了提高针对低亲和力的Ca 2 +的指标内质网腔，TED的开发。 TED需要一个ER靶向小鼠羧酸酯酶（CES2）（ 图2），这是实现通过表达构建的过表达。对AM-酯的形式存在的钙孵育细胞表达重组CES构造的dicator染料（Fluo5N-AM， 图2）。然后，在ER中，染料被转换到的Ca 2 +敏感的，不透膜的Ca 2 +指示剂络合物（Fluo5N/Ca 2 +）的高的酯酶活性，因此，捕获的内质网腔8中以高浓度的染料，34。该方法是特别有用的调查通过IiCR途径例如雌激素受体 ​​的钙释放，通过代谢，嘌呤或谷氨酸受体8,34和可视化ER钙耗竭后，在SERCA 17的封锁，通过"泄漏通道"，例如直接，34。据我们的经验，低亲和力的Ca 2 +指标Fluo5N-AM是目前最好的可用指标，使用TED的染料加载策略。 Fluo5N-AM具有低亲和力的Ca 2 +（解离常数K D〜90微米， 图2），其AM-形式几乎无荧光，但提供高荧光发射后calciu米8,34约束力。 〜490 nm处，对应于标准染料如FITC标记的Alexa 488，或绿色荧光蛋白与一个标准的光源，可兴奋的Fluo5N/Ca 2 +配合物。细胞内钙信号几乎达到在低浓度μM范围内，因此，几乎没有检测到在细胞质中Fluo5N 35。 为了提高的TED性能，开发一些重组载体构建（ 图3）。本来，式载体的基础上的编码序列（RefSeq的登记号为NM_145603，CES2c CES2）和最佳的TED性能是观察到与CES的结构稳定表达。新TED载体表达红色荧光蛋白TagRFP-T2 36 CES2融合的核心要素。这些载体的优点是，它们可以被用来识别转导的细胞，使用的红色荧光变化的归一化在Fluo5N/Ca 2作为内部控制+荧光。红色荧光还提供了可能性，以可视化的刺激条件下的ER和ER动态变化的结构分布。

Ex vivo Mechanical Loading of Tendon

Injuries to the tendon (e.g., wrist tendonitis, epicondyltis) due to overuse are common in sports activities and the workplace. Most are associated with repetitive, high force hand activities. The mechanisms of cellular and structural damage due to cyclical loading are not well known. The purpose of this video is to present a new system that can simultaneously load four tendons in tissue culture. The video describes the methods of sterile tissue harvest and how the tendons are loaded onto a clamping system that is subsequently immersed into media and maintained at 37&deg;C. One clamp is fixed while the other one is moved with a linear actuator. Tendon tensile force is monitored with a load cell in series with the mobile clamp. The actuators are controlled with a LabView program. The four tendons can be repetitively loaded with different patterns of loading, repetition rate, rate of loading, and duration. Loading can continue for a few minutes to 48 hours. At the end of loading, the tendons are removed and the mid-substance extracted for biochemical analyses. This system allows for the investigation of the effects of loading patterns on gene expression and structural changes in tendon. Ultimately, mechanisms of injury due to overuse can be studies with the findings applied to treatment and prevention.

A new in vitro system for simultaneously loading four tendons in culture is described.

Loading Drosophila Nerve Terminals with Calcium Indicators

Calcium plays many roles in the nervous system but none more impressive than as the trigger for neurotransmitter release, and none more profound than as the messenger essential for the synaptic plasticity that supports learning and memory. To further elucidate the molecular underpinnings of Ca2+-dependent synaptic mechanisms, a model system is required that is both genetically malleable and physiologically accessible. Drosophila melanogaster provides such a model. In this system, genetically-encoded fluorescent indicators are available to detect Ca2+ changes in nerve terminals. However, these indicators have limited sensitivity to Ca2+ and often show a non-linear response. Synthetic fluorescent indicators are better suited for measuring the rapid Ca2+ changes associated with nerve activity. Here we demonstrate a technique for loading dextran-conjugated synthetic Ca2+ indicators into live nerve terminals in Drosophila larvae. Particular emphasis is placed on those aspects of the protocol most critical to the technique's success, such as how to avoid static electricity discharges along the isolated nerves, maintaining the health of the preparation during extended loading periods, and ensuring axon survival by providing Ca2+ to promote sealing of severed axon endings. Low affinity dextran-conjugated Ca2+-indicators, such as fluo-4 and rhod, are available which show a high signal-to-noise ratio while minimally disrupting presynaptic Ca2+ dynamics. Dextran-conjugation helps prevent Ca2+ indicators being sequestered into organelles such as mitochondria. The loading technique can be applied equally to larvae, embryos and adults.

Calcium is a ubiquitous messenger in the nervous system, essential for triggering neurotransmitter release and changes in synaptic strength. Here we demonstrate a technique for loading Ca2+-indicators into Drosophila nerve terminals. We also demonstrate fabrication of the required apparatus and emphasize points critical for the technique's success.

In Vivo 2-Photon Calcium Imaging in Layer 2/3 of Mice

To understand network dynamics of microcircuits in the neocortex, it is essential to simultaneously record the activity of a large number of neurons . In-vivo two-photon calcium imaging is the only method that allows one to record the activity of a dense neuronal population with single-cell resolution . The method consists in implanting a cranial imaging window, injecting a fluorescent calcium indicator dye that can be taken up by large numbers of neurons and finally recording the activity of neurons with time lapse calcium imaging using an in-vivo two photon microscope. Co-injection of astrocyte-specific dyes allows one to differentiate neurons from astrocytes. The technique can be performed in mice expressing fluorescent molecules in specific subpopulations of neurons to better understand the network interactions of different groups of cells.

Calcium Imaging of Cortical Neurons using Fura-2 AM

Calcium imaging is a common technique that is useful for measuring calcium signals in cultured cells. Calcium imaging techniques take advantage of calcium indicator dyes, which are BAPTA-based organic molecules that change their spectral properties in response to the binding of Ca2+ ions. Calcium indicator dyes fall into two categories, ratio-metric dyes like Fura-2 and Indo-1 and single-wavelength dyes like Fluo-4. Ratio-metric dyes change either their excitation or their emission spectra in response to calcium, allowing the concentration of intracellular calcium to be determined from the ratio of fluorescence emission or excitation at distinct wavelengths.  The main advantage of using ratio-metric dyes over single wavelength probes is that the ratio signal is independent of the dye concentration, illumination intensity, and optical path length allowing the concentration of intracellular calcium to be determined independently of these artifacts. One of the most common calcium indicators is Fura-2, which has an emission peak at 505 nM and changes its excitation peak from 340 nm to 380 nm in response to calcium binding.  Here we describe the use of Fura-2 to measure intracellular calcium elevations in neurons and other excitable cells.

Calcium signals play a key role in many cellular processes including gene expression, survival and differentiation. Here we demonstrate how to perform calcium imaging using Fura-2 AM. Calcium imaging is a valuable tool to study the regulation of intracellular calcium in real time and its regulation of signaling cascades.

Assembly, Loading, and Alignment of an Analytical Ultracentrifuge Sample Cell

The analytical ultracentrifuge (AUC) is a powerful biophysical tool that allows us to record macromolecular sedimentation profiles during high speed centrifugation. When properly planned and executed, an AUC sedimentation velocity or sedimentation equilibrium experiment can reveal a great deal about a protein in regards to size and shape, sample purity, sedimentation coefficient, oligomerization states and protein-protein interactions.
This technique, however, requires a rigorous level of technical attention. Sample cells hold a sectored center piece sandwiched between two window assemblies. They are sealed with a torque pressure of around 120-140 in/lbs. Reference buffer and sample are loaded into the centerpiece sectors and then after sealing, the cells are precisely aligned into a titanium rotor so that the optical detection systems scan both sample and reference buffer in the same radial path midline through each centerpiece sector while rotating at speeds of up to 60, 000 rpm and under very high vacuum
Not only is proper sample cell assembly critical, sample cell components are very expensive and must be properly cared for to ensure they are in optimum working condition in order to avoid leaks and breakage during experiments. Handle windows carefully, for even the slightest crack or scratch can lead to breakage in the centrifuge. The contact between centerpiece and windows must be as tight as possible; i.e. no Newton s rings should be visible after torque pressure is applied. Dust, lint, scratches and oils on either the windows or the centerpiece all compromise this contact and can very easily lead to leaking of solutions from one sector to another or leaking out of the centerpiece all together. Not only are precious samples lost, leaking of solutions during an experiment will cause an imbalance of pressure in the cell that often leads to broken windows and centerpieces. In addition, plug gaskets and housing plugs must be securely in place to avoid solutions being pulled out of the centerpiece sector through the loading holes by the high vacuum in the centrifuge chamber. Window liners and gaskets must be free of breaks and cracks that could cause movement resulting in broken windows.
This video will demonstrate our procedures of sample cell assembly, torque, loading and rotor alignment to help minimize component damage, solution leaking and breakage during the perfect AUC experiment.

The analytical ultracentrifuge (AUC) sample cell holds sample and reference buffer and during experiments and is exposed to high vacuum and rotor speeds up to 60,000 rpm. This video will demonstrate the rigorous attention to detail necessary for assembly, loading and alignment of this very important component of an AUC experiment.

Live Cell Calcium Imaging Combined with siRNA Mediated Gene Silencing Identifies Ca2+ Leak Channels in the ER Membrane and their Regulatory Mechanisms

In mammalian cells, the endoplasmic reticulum (ER) plays a key role in protein biogenesis as well as in calcium signalling1. The heterotrimeric Sec61 complex in the ER membrane provides an aqueous path for newly-synthesized polypeptides into the lumen of the ER. Recent work from various laboratories suggested that this heterotrimeric complex may also form transient Ca2+ leak channels2-8. The key observation for this notion was that release of nascent polypeptides from the ribosome and Sec61 complex by puromycin leads to transient release of Ca2+ from the ER. Furthermore, it had been observed in vitro that the ER luminal protein BiP is involved in preventing ion permeability at the level of the Sec61 complex9,10. We have established an experimental system that allows us to directly address the role of the Sec61 complex as potential Ca2+ leak channel and to characterize its putative regulatory mechanisms11-13. This system combines siRNA mediated gene silencing and live cell Ca2+ imaging13. Cells are treated with siRNAs that are directed against the coding and untranslated region (UTR), respectively, of the SEC61A1 gene or a negative control siRNA. In complementation analysis, the cells are co-transfected with an IRES-GFP vector that allows the siRNA-resistant expression of the wildtype SEC61A1 gene. Then the cells are loaded with the ratiometric Ca2+-indicator FURA-2 to monitor simultaneously changes in the cytosolic Ca2+ concentration in a number of cells via a fluorescence microscope. The continuous measurement of cytosolic Ca2+ also allows the evaluation of the impact of various agents, such as puromycin, small molecule inhibitors, and thapsigargin on Ca2+ leakage. This experimental system gives us the unique opportunities to i) evaluate the contribution of different ER membrane proteins to passive Ca2+ efflux from the ER in various cell types, ii) characterize the proteins and mechanisms that limit this passive Ca2+ efflux, and iii) study the effects of disease linked mutations in the relevant components.

Expression and Purification of Virus-like Particles for Vaccination

Virus-like particles (VLPs) and subviral particles (SVPs) are an alternative approach to viral vaccine design that offers the advantages of increased biosafety and stability over use of live pathogens. Non-infectious and self-assembling, VLPs are used to present structural proteins as immunogens, bypassing the need for live pathogens or recombinant viral vectors for antigen delivery. In this article, we demonstrate the different stages of VLP design and development for future applications in preclinical animal testing. The procedure includes the following stages: selection of antigen, expression of antigen in cell line of choice, purification of VLPs/SVPs, and quantification for antigen dosing. We demonstrate use of both mammalian and insect cell lines for expression of our antigens and demonstrate how methodologies differ in yield. The methodology presented may apply to a variety of pathogens and can be achieved by substituting the antigens with immunogenic structural proteins of the user&#39;s microorganism of interest. VLPs and SVPs assist with antigen characterization and selection of the best vaccine candidates.

Here, we present a protocol for synthesizing virus-like particles using either baculovirus or mammalian expression systems, and ultracentrifugation purification. This highly customizable approach is used to identify viral antigens as vaccine targets in a safe and flexible manner.

Monitoring ER/SR Calcium Release with the Targeted Ca2+ Sensor CatchER+

Intracellular calcium (Ca2+) transients evoked by extracellular stimuli initiate a multitude of biological processes in living organisms. At the center of intracellular calcium release are the major intracellular calcium storage organelles, the endoplasmic reticulum (ER) and the more specialized sarcoplasmic reticulum (SR) in muscle cells. The dynamic release of calcium from these organelles is mediated by the ryanodine receptor (RyR) and the inositol 1,4,5-triphosphate receptor (IP3R) with refilling occurring through the sarco/endoplasmic reticulum calcium ATPase (SERCA) pump. A genetically encoded calcium sensor (GECI) called CatchER was created to monitor the rapid calcium release from the ER/SR. Here, the detailed protocols for the transfection and expression of the improved, ER/SR-targeted GECI CatchER+ in HEK293 and C2C12 cells and its application in monitoring IP3R, RyR, and SERCA pump-mediated calcium transients in HEK293 cells using fluorescence microscopy is outlined. The receptor agonist or inhibitor of choice is dispersed in the chamber solution and the intensity changes are recorded in real time. With this method, a decrease in ER calcium is seen with RyR activation with 4-chloro-m-cresol (4-cmc), the indirect activation of IP3R with adenosine triphosphate (ATP), and inhibition of the SERCA pump with cyclopiazonic acid (CPA). We also discuss protocols for determining the in situ Kd and quantifying basal [Ca2+] in C2C12 cells. In summary, these protocols, used in conjunction with CatchER+, can elicit receptor mediated calcium release from the ER with future application in studying ER/SR calcium related pathologies.

A protocol for the in situ Kd measurement and calibration is also discussed.

Imaging Intermediate Filaments and Microtubules with 2-dimensional Direct Stochastic Optical Reconstruction Microscopy

The cytoskeleton, composed of actin microfilaments, microtubules, and intermediate filaments (IF), plays a key role in the control of cell shape, polarity, and motility. The organization of the actin and microtubule networks has been extensively studied but that of IFs is not yet fully characterized. IFs have an average diameter of 10 nm and form a network extending throughout the cell cytoplasm. They are physically associated with actin and microtubules through molecular motors and cytoskeletal linkers. This tight association is at the heart of the regulatory mechanisms that ensure the coordinated regulation of the three cytoskeletal networks required for most cell functions. It is therefore crucial to visualize IFs alone and also together with each of the other cytoskeletal networks. However, IF networks are extremely dense in most cell types, especially in glial cells, which makes its resolution very difficult to achieve with standard fluorescence microscopy (lateral resolution of ~250 nm). Direct STochastic Optical Reconstruction Microscopy (dSTORM) is a technique allowing a gain in lateral resolution of one order of magnitude. Here, we show that lateral dSTORM resolution is sufficient to resolve the dense organization of the IF networks and, in particular, of IF bundles surrounding microtubules. Such tight association is likely to participate in the coordinated regulation of these two networks and may, explain how vimentin IFs template and stabilize microtubule organization as well as could influence microtubule dependent vesicular trafficking. More generally, we show how the observation of two cytoskeletal components with dual-color dSTORM technique brings new insight into their mutual interaction.

The overall goal of this methodology is to give the optimal experimental conditions from sample preparation to image acquisition and reconstruction in order to perform 2D dual color dSTORM images of microtubules and intermediate filaments in fixed cells

Analysis of Beta-cell Function Using Single-cell Resolution Calcium Imaging in Zebrafish Islets

Pancreatic beta-cells respond to increasing blood glucose concentrations by secreting the hormone insulin. The dysfunction of beta-cells leads to hyperglycemia and severe, life-threatening consequences. Understanding how the beta-cells operate under physiological conditions and what genetic and environmental factors might cause their dysfunction could lead to better treatment options for diabetic patients. The ability to measure calcium levels in beta-cells serves as an important indicator of beta-cell function, as the influx of calcium ions triggers insulin release. Here we describe a protocol for monitoring the glucose-stimulated calcium influx in zebrafish beta-cells by using GCaMP6s, a genetically encoded sensor of calcium. The method allows monitoring the intracellular calcium dynamics with single-cell resolution in ex vivo mounted islets. The glucose-responsiveness of beta-cells within the same islet can be captured simultaneously under different glucose concentrations, which suggests the presence of functional heterogeneity among zebrafish beta-cells. Furthermore, the technique provides high temporal and spatial resolution, which reveals the oscillatory nature of the calcium influx upon glucose stimulation. Our approach opens the doors to use the zebrafish as a model to investigate the contribution of genetic and environmental factors to beta-cell function and dysfunction.

Beta-cell functionality is important for blood-glucose homeostasis, which is evaluated at single-cell resolution using a genetically encoded reporter for calcium influx.
