Visualization of intracellular Ca2+ dynamics with simultaneous two-photon-excited fluorescence and third-harmonic generation microscopes

We present a promising development of third-harmonic generation (THG) coupled with two-photon excited fluorescence (TPEF) in laser scanning microscopy to study in vivo glial human cells. In this letter, intracellular Ca2+ dynamics in biological cells are shown. The THG microscopy allows visualizing...

Zusammenfassung:We present a promising development of third-harmonic generation (THG) coupled with two-photon excited fluorescence (TPEF) in laser scanning microscopy to study in vivo glial human cells. In this letter, intracellular Ca2+ dynamics in biological cells are shown. The THG microscopy allows visualizing precisely the localization of the Ca2+ release whereas TPEF microscopy only gives functional mechanisms.
