Şu anda pek çok yöntem vardır MT dynamics erken Zebra balığı geliştirme görüntüleme için doku11,12,13,14sabit dan tagged moleküllerin canlı görüntüleme immunolabeling için değişen. Tek bir hücrede MTs dinamik ya da istikrarlı Devletleri'nde bulunabilir rağmen epithelialization içinde aşamalı olarak zaman içinde MTs bağları bir süreçtir. İstikrarlı ve dinamik MTs...

Polimerler, α - ve β-birkaç hangi içi boş boru1,2oluşturmak üzere birleştirmek doğrusal protofilaments araya tübülin mikrotübüller (MTs) vardır. MTs biter hızla büyüyen ve yavaş-centrosome veya diğer Mikrotubul düzenleme Merkezi (MTOC)3bağlantılı biter eksi büyüyen polarize, yapılardır. De novo MT oluşumu, γ-tübülin yüzük karmaşık çekirdekleşme (γ-TURC), MT derleme4için bir şablon sağlayan tarafından başlatılır. Verilen herhangi bir hücresinde, MTS iki popülasyonun o dönüşü üzerinde farklı oranlarda ayrılır. Dinamik MTs büyüme aşamaları ve büzülme dinamik istikrarsızlık5olarak bilinen bir işlemle arasında geçiş yaparak onların hücresel ortamı keşfetmek. Dinamik MTs, aksine istikrarlı MTs sigara büyüyen ve dinamik MTs6' dan daha uzun bir yarı ömrü vardır.

Araştırmalar yılların MT yapısı ve fonksiyonu çalışma araçları karmaşık bir dizi sağlanan ve hücre iskeleti bu öğeler üzerinde bilgi büyük bir vücut sonuçlandı. Örneğin, MTs kurulması ve aynı zamanda kararlı dinamik MTs7, karşı farklı hücre altı dağıtım için kendi içsel polarite sadece atfedilebilecek hücre polarite bakım merkezi bir rol oynamaktadır 8. buna ek olarak, çok daha az MT mimarisi ve işlev omurgalı embriyo gibi daha karmaşık üç boyutlu (3-D) ortamlarında hakkında kısmen nedeniyle MT sitoiskeleti yüksek çözünürlükte görüntüleme meydan anlaşılmaktadır. Bu sınırlamaya rağmen GFP-ifade transgenik son nesil bu etiketle MTs hatları veya geçici ifade fluorescently öğesini MT işaretlerinin MTs geçmesi dinamik değişiklikleri ve onların hücresel anlayışımızı artmıştır ve Zebra balığı embriyo gelişimsel rolünde. Tüm MT ağ hangi tübülin transgenik satırlarında etiketli9 veya tübülin polimerler MT ilişkili proteinler kullanarak dolaylı olarak etiketlenir doğrudan olması yansıması Doublecortin-gibi-kinaz (Dclk) veya Ensconsin (EMTB)10, 11. Diğer çizgiler (ve yapıları) MT içsel polarite değerlendirilmesi özellikle MT artı biter etiketleme tarafından etkinleştirmeniz veya biter11,12,13, centrosome bağlantılı oluşturulan 14. organizmalar geliştirme yeteneği MT dinamiklerini canlı, çalışma için bu araçları gücü yatıyor. Bu tür çalışmalar, örneğin, MTs kayma ve dinamik dağıtım, belirli hücre popülasyonlarının indirdik, Mitotik yönünü morfogenez (hücre bölünmesi boyutunda bir gösterge) geçiren dokularda MT polimer polarite spindles hücre uzama ve geçiş, gibi işlemleri ile ilişkisini ve MT büyüme hızı kuyruklu yıldız hız9,13,15tarafından belirlenir. Bu araçların onlar kolayca istikrarlı ve dinamik MT nüfus arasında ayırımcılık değil ki kısıtlamadır.

Zengin hücre biyolojisi edebiyatından çizim, Zebra balığı embriyo istikrarlı ve dinamik MTs görüntüye immunolabeling yöntemleri burada, transgenik çizgiler kullanmak için tamamlayıcı olduğu açıklanmıştır. Zebra balığı böyle immunolabeling yöntemleri yaygın kullanımı biraz zorluk fiksasyon işlemi sırasında MT bütünlüğünün korunmasında engel olmuştur. İmmunolabeling toplam, dinamik, için en iyi duruma getirilmiş bir yöntemi protokol 1 özetliyor ve istikrarlı MTs gelişmekte olan Zebra balığı arka beyin bölümlerini çapraz. Ayrıca, ticari olarak kullanarak basit bir yöntem bu MT nüfus ölçmek için kullanılabilir yazılım açıklanmıştır. İstikrarlı MTs dinamik MTs α-tübülin, istikrarlı MTs saat16,17üzerinde birikir asetilasyon ve detyrosination, gibi çeşitli translasyonel modifikasyonlar dayalı dan ayırt edilirler. Zebra balığı embriyo asetilasyon silier ve aksonal MTs ama bu işaretleyici bir alt kümesi stabilize MTs ile kullanışlılığı sınırlama değil istikrarlı Interphase MTs18, oluşur. Buna ek olarak, Zebra balığı embriyo18tüm istikrarlı MTs oluştuğu detyrosination görünür. Bu translasyonel modifikasyon carboxy-terminal glutamik asit α-tübülin (detyrosinated tübülin)18 ortaya çıkaran ve anti-Glu-tübülin19kullanarak tespit edilebilir. Detyrosination tercihen istikrarlı MTs üzerinde oluşmakla birlikte, deneysel kanıtlar bu translasyonel modifikasyon bir nedeninin, MT istikrar16yerine bir sonucu olduğunu gösterir. Dinamik MTs oluşan karşılıklı MT nüfus bir antikor, anti-Tyr-bu özellikle α-tübülin19tyrosinated şeklinde tanır tübülin, kullanarak ayırt edilir. Bu işaretleri ve confocal görüntüleme immunolabeling gelişen Nöral tüp tanımlanan bölgelerde MTs (uzunluk, numarası ve göreli bereket) kantitatif analiz gerçekleştirilebilir. Akıcı bir yöntem 3 boyutlu görüntü işleme yazılımı kullanarak bu analiz gerçekleştirmek için buraya sağlanır. Bu yöntem morfogenez ve kuruluş veya hücre polarite20olgunlaşma ile ilgili soruları için uygulanabilir. Gerçekten de, istikrarlı MTs polarize dizileri hazırlama photoreceptor morfogenetik21, epithelialization gelişmekte olan Nöral tüp18 ve akson oluşumu8hücre de dahil olmak üzere birçok gelişimsel olay eşlik eder.

Protokolü 2 vivo uyarlaması MTs onların derleme aşaması (çekirdekleşme/çapalama ve büyümesi)22,23sırasında analiz etmek için bir hücre biyolojisi tahlil açıklar. Yeni doğmakta olan MTs parçalanmayabilir centrosome ve daha sonra anne centriole23subdistal uzantıları için bağlantılı. Yeni doğmakta olan MT büyütme bozulumu takip analiz etmek için bir yöntem açıklanır. Bu iletişim kuralı, MTs, uyuşturucu Silinerek geçiş prosedürü ve tedavi sonrası iyileşme döneminde depolymerize için nocodazole tedavi için ayrıntıları sağlar. MT yeniden büyüme düzenli aralıklarla izlenirs yazı Silinerek geçiş işaretli toplam MTs için immunolabeling tarafından (anti β-tübülin) yanında centrosome için işaretleri (anti γ-tübülin) ve çekirdek (4', 6-diamidino-2-phenylindole (DAPI)), iletişim kuralı 1' de açıklanan genel yordamlara göre belirleme yapılacağı. MT bozulumu adım bu protokol değerlendirme de novo MT büyüme yerine önceden varolan MTs uzantısı sağlar, gerekli. Bu tekniği bu nedenle bağlayıcı protein 3 Tran ve ark.içinde gösterildiği gibi yeşil flüoresan protein (EB3-GFP), erimiş bağlıdır son gibi artı bir ipucu işaretleyici kullanarak (bozulumu yokluğunda) MT büyüme oranları ölçmek için yayımlanmış diğer yordamlar ayrıdır, 201211. Ayrıca, bu tahlil embriyo de novo MT derlemede arızalı analiz etmek için özellikle yararlıdır γ-tübülin centrosome için alımı Engelli daha önce bildirilen NEDD1 mutantlar gibi içinde eksik çıkan Nöral tüp oluşumu ve nöronal kusurları24.

Production and Use of Lentivirus to Selectively Transduce Primary Oligodendrocyte Precursor Cells for In Vitro Myelination Assays

Myelination is a complex process that involves both neurons and the myelin forming glial cells, oligodendrocytes in the central nervous system (CNS) and Schwann cells in the peripheral nervous system (PNS). We use an in vitro myelination assay, an established model for studying CNS myelination in vitro. To do this, oligodendrocyte precursor cells (OPCs) are added to the purified primary rodent dorsal root ganglion (DRG) neurons to form myelinating co-cultures. In order to specifically interrogate the roles that particular proteins expressed by oligodendrocytes exert upon myelination we have developed protocols that selectively transduce OPCs using the lentivirus overexpressing wild type, constitutively active or dominant negative proteins before being seeded onto the DRG neurons. This allows us to specifically interrogate the roles of these oligodendroglial proteins in regulating myelination. The protocols can also be applied in the study of other cell types, thus providing an approach that allows selective manipulation of proteins expressed by a desired cell type, such as oligodendrocytes for the targeted study of signaling and compensation mechanisms. In conclusion, combining the in vitro myelination assay with lentiviral infected OPCs provides a strategic tool for the analysis of molecular mechanisms involved in myelination.

Use of the TetON System to Study Molecular Mechanisms of Zebrafish Regeneration

The zebrafish has become a very important model organism for studying vertebrate development, physiology, disease, and tissue regeneration. A thorough understanding of the molecular and cellular mechanisms involved requires experimental tools that allow for inducible, tissue-specific manipulation of gene expression or signaling pathways. Therefore, we and others have recently adapted the TetON system for use in zebrafish. The TetON system facilitates temporally and spatially-controlled gene expression and we have recently used this tool to probe for tissue-specific functions of Wnt/beta&#8211;catenin signaling during zebrafish tail fin regeneration. Here we describe the workflow for using the TetON system to achieve inducible, tissue-specific gene expression in the adult regenerating zebrafish tail fin. This includes the generation of stable transgenic TetActivator and TetResponder lines, transgene induction and techniques for verification of tissue-specific gene expression in the fin regenerate. Thus, this protocol serves as blueprint for setting up a functional TetON system in zebrafish and its subsequent use, in particular for studying fin regeneration.

Here we outline the workflow for using the TetON system to achieve tissue-specific gene expression in the adult regenerating zebrafish tail fin.

Microbead Implantation in the Zebrafish Embryo

The zebrafish has emerged as a valuable genetic model system for the study of developmental biology and disease. Zebrafish share a high degree of genomic conservation, as well as similarities in cellular, molecular, and physiological processes, with other vertebrates including humans. During early ontogeny, zebrafish embryos are optically transparent, allowing researchers to visualize the dynamics of organogenesis using a simple stereomicroscope. Microbead implantation is a method that enables tissue manipulation through the alteration of factors in local environments. This allows researchers to assay the effects of any number of signaling molecules of interest, such as secreted peptides, at specific spatial and temporal points within the developing embryo. Here, we detail a protocol for how to manipulate and implant beads during early zebrafish development.

The zebrafish is an excellent model system for genetic and developmental studies. Bead implantation is a valuable tissue manipulation technique that can be used to interrogate developmental mechanisms by introducing alterations in local cellular environments. This protocol describes how to perform microbead implantation in the zebrafish embryo.

Analysis of Zebrafish Larvae Skeletal Muscle Integrity with Evans Blue Dye

The zebrafish model is an emerging system for the study of neuromuscular disorders. In the study of neuromuscular diseases, the integrity of the muscle membrane is a critical disease determinant. To date, numerous neuromuscular conditions display degenerating muscle fibers with abnormal membrane integrity; this is most commonly observed in muscular dystrophies. Evans Blue Dye (EBD) is a vital, cell permeable dye that is rapidly taken into degenerating, damaged, or apoptotic cells; in contrast, it is not taken up by cells with an intact membrane. EBD injection is commonly employed to ascertain muscle integrity in mouse models of neuromuscular diseases. However, such EBD experiments require muscle dissection and/or sectioning prior to analysis. In contrast, EBD uptake in zebrafish is visualized in live, intact preparations. Here, we demonstrate a simple and straightforward methodology for performing EBD injections and analysis in live zebrafish. In addition, we demonstrate a co-injection strategy to increase efficacy of EBD analysis. Overall, this video article provides an outline to perform EBD injection and characterization in zebrafish models of neuromuscular disease.

In this study, we describe a straightforward method to perform Evans Blue Dye (EBD) analysis on zebrafish larvae. This technique is a powerful tool for the characterization of skeletal muscle integrity and delineation of zebrafish models of muscular dystrophy, and is a valuable method for the development of novel therapeutics.

Imaging Subcellular Structures in the Living Zebrafish Embryo

In vivo imaging provides unprecedented access to the dynamic behavior of cellular and subcellular structures in their natural context. Performing such imaging experiments in higher vertebrates such as mammals generally requires surgical access to the system under study. The optical accessibility of embryonic and larval zebrafish allows such invasive procedures to be circumvented and permits imaging in the intact organism. Indeed the zebrafish is now a well-established model to visualize dynamic cellular behaviors using in vivo microscopy in a wide range of developmental contexts from proliferation to migration and differentiation. A more recent development is the increasing use of zebrafish to study subcellular events including mitochondrial trafficking and centrosome dynamics. The relative ease with which these subcellular structures can be genetically labeled by fluorescent proteins and the use of light microscopy techniques to image them is transforming the zebrafish into an in vivo model of cell biology. Here we describe methods to generate genetic constructs that fluorescently label organelles, highlighting mitochondria and centrosomes as specific examples. We use the bipartite Gal4-UAS system in multiple configurations to restrict expression to specific cell-types and provide protocols to generate transiently expressing and stable transgenic fish. Finally, we provide guidelines for choosing light microscopy methods that are most suitable for imaging subcellular dynamics.

Imaging the dynamic behavior of organelles and other subcellular structures in vivo can shed light on their function in physiological and disease conditions. Here, we present methods for genetically tagging two organelles, centrosomes and mitochondria, and imaging their dynamics in living zebrafish embryos using wide-field and confocal microscopy.

Observing Mitotic Division and Dynamics in a Live Zebrafish Embryo

Mitosis is critical for organismal growth and differentiation. The process is highly dynamic and requires ordered events to accomplish proper chromatin condensation, microtubule-kinetochore attachment, chromosome segregation, and cytokinesis in a small time frame. Errors in the delicate process can result in human disease, including birth defects and cancer. Traditional approaches investigating human mitotic disease states often rely on cell culture systems, which lack the natural physiology and developmental/tissue-specific context advantageous when studying human disease. This protocol overcomes many obstacles by providing a way to visualize, with high resolution, chromosome dynamics in a vertebrate system, the zebrafish. This protocol will detail an approach that can be used to obtain dynamic images of dividing cells, which include: in vitro transcription, zebrafish breeding/collecting, embryo embedding, and time-lapse imaging. Optimization and modifications of this protocol are also explored. Using H2A.F/Z-EGFP (labels chromatin) and mCherry-CAAX (labels cell membrane) mRNA-injected embryos, mitosis in AB wild-type, auroraBhi1045, and esco2hi2865 mutant zebrafish is visualized. High resolution live imaging in zebrafish allows one to observe multiple mitoses to statistically quantify mitotic defects and timing of mitotic progression. In addition, observation of qualitative aspects that define improper mitotic processes (i.e., congression defects, missegregation of chromosomes, etc.) and improper chromosomal outcomes (i.e., aneuploidy, polyploidy, micronuclei, etc.) are observed. This assay can be applied to the observation of tissue differentiation/development and is amenable to the use of mutant zebrafish and pharmacological agents. Visualization of how defects in mitosis lead to cancer and developmental disorders will greatly enhance understanding of the pathogenesis of disease.

Mitosis is critical to every living organism and defects often lead to cancer and developmental disorders. Using this imaging protocol and zebrafish as a model system, researchers can visualize mitosis in a live vertebrate organism and the multitude of defects that arise when mitotic processes are defective.

Embryo Microinjection and Electroporation in the Chordate Ciona intestinalis

Simple model organisms are instrumental for in vivo studies of developmental and cellular differentiation processes. Currently, the evolutionary distance to man of conventional invertebrate model systems and the complexity of genomes in vertebrates are critical challenges to modeling human normal and pathological conditions. The chordate Ciona intestinalis is an invertebrate chordate that emerged from a common ancestor with the vertebrates and may represent features at the interface between invertebrates and vertebrates. A common body plan with much simpler cellular and genomic composition should unveil gene regulatory network (GRN) links and functional genomics readouts explaining phenomena in the vertebrate condition. The compact genome of Ciona, a fixed embryonic lineage with few divisions and large cells, combined with versatile community tools foster efficient gene functional analyses in this organism. Here, we present several crucial methods for this promising model organism, which belongs to the closest sister group to vertebrates. We present protocols for transient transgenesis by electroporation, along with microinjection-mediated gene knockdown, which together provide the means to study gene function and genomic regulatory elements. We extend our protocols to provide information on how community databases are utilized for in silico design of gene regulatory or gene functional experiments. An example study demonstrates how novel information can be gained on the interplay, and its quantification, of selected neural factors conserved between Ciona and man. Furthermore, we show examples of differential subcellular localization in embryonic cells, following DNA electroporation in Ciona zygotes. Finally, we discuss the potential of these protocols to be adapted for tissue specific gene interference with emerging gene editing methods. The in vivo approaches in Ciona overcome major shortcomings of classical model organisms in the quest of unraveling conserved mechanisms in the chordate developmental program, relevant to stem cell research, drug discovery, and subsequent clinical application.

Embryo Microinjection and Electroporation in the Chordate Ciona intestinalis

AFM and Microrheology in the Zebrafish Embryo Yolk Cell

Elucidating the factors that direct the spatio-temporal organization of evolving tissues is one of the primary purposes in the study of development. Various propositions claim to have been important contributions to the understanding of the mechanical properties of cells and tissues in their spatiotemporal organization in different developmental and morphogenetic processes. However, due to the lack of reliable and accessible tools to measure material properties and tensional parameters in vivo, validating these hypotheses has been difficult. Here we present methods employing atomic force microscopy (AFM) and particle tracking with the aim of quantifying the mechanical properties of the intact zebrafish embryo yolk cell during epiboly. Epiboly is an early conserved developmental process whose study is facilitated by the transparency of the embryo. These methods are simple to implement, reliable, and widely applicable since they overcome intrusive interventions that could affect tissue mechanics. A simple strategy was applied for the mounting of specimens, AFM recording, and nanoparticle injections and tracking. This approach makes these methods easily adaptable to other developmental times or organisms.

The lack of tools to measure material properties and tensional parameters in vivo prevents validating their roles during development. We employed atomic force microscopy (AFM) and nanoparticle-tracking to quantify mechanical features on the intact zebrafish embryo yolk cell during epiboly. These methods are reliable and widely applicable avoiding intrusive interventions.

Immobilization of Caenorhabditis elegans to Analyze Intracellular Transport in Neurons

Axonal transport and intraflagellar transport (IFT) are essential for axon and cilia morphogenesis and function. Kinesin superfamily proteins and dynein are molecular motors that regulate anterograde and retrograde transport, respectively. These motors use microtubule networks as rails. Caenorhabditis elegans (C. elegans) is a powerful model organism to study axonal transport and IFT in vivo. Here, I describe a protocol to observe axonal transport and IFT in living C. elegans. Transported cargo can be visualized by tagging cargo proteins using fluorescent proteins such as green fluorescent protein (GFP). C. elegans is transparent and GFP-tagged cargo proteins can be expressed in specific cells under cell-specific promoters. Living worms can be fixed by microbeads on 10% agarose gel without killing or anesthetizing the worms. Under these conditions, cargo movement can be directly observed in the axons and cilia of living C. elegans without dissection. This method can be applied to the observation of any cargo molecule in any cells by modifying the target proteins and/or the cells they are expressed in. Most basic proteins such as molecular motors and adaptor proteins that are involved in axonal transport and IFT are conserved in C. elegans. Compared to other model organisms, mutants can be obtained and maintained more easily in C. elegans. Combining this method with various C. elegans mutants can clarify the molecular mechanisms of axonal transport and IFT.

Effectiveness of the Air Stripping in Two Salmonid Fish, Rainbow Trout (Oncorhynchus Mykiss) and Brown Trout (Salmo Trutta Morpha fario)

Egg collection is one of the most crucial procedures during fish reproduction in salmonid hatcheries. Classic methods involve the use of hand massage on fish abdomens to expel the eggs. An alternative method uses the pressure of gas injected into the body cavity, which causes the subsequent release of the eggs. This method is believed to have less negative effects on both the welfare and egg quality of the broodstocks. Herein, we compare the results of air and hand stripping methods with respect to one-year survival and egg quantity and quality in two salmonid fish, rainbow trout (Oncorhynchus mykiss) and brown trout (Salmo trutta morpha fario). Our results indicate that air stripping yielded a better quality of eggs and higher one-year survival rate in rainbow trout. In addition, air stripping resulted in lower mortality rate than the group subjected to hand stripping (25% vs. 35%). The pH and hatching rate of the hand stripped group was lower than those of the air stripped group. In the case of brown trout, the quality of eggs obtained by both hand and air-stripping methods was similar; however, the one-year losses in fish were higher in air stripped group (15% compared to 0% in hand stripped fish). Although the advantages of air stripping method over hand stripping in terms of egg quality might not be observed in all salmonid species, the air-stripping procedure might be a promising option to be adopted in hatcheries as it ensures a high level of reproducibility and efficiency.
