Label-Free Dopamine Imaging in Live Rat Brain Slices

Abstract: Dopaminergic neurotransmission has been investigated extensively, yet direct optical probing of dopamine has not been possible in live cells. Here we image intracellular dopamine with sub-micrometer three-dimensional resolution by harnessing its intrinsic mid-ultraviolet (UV) autofluorescence. Two-photon excitation with visible light (540 nm) in conjunction with a non-epifluorescent detection scheme is used to circumvent the UV toxicity and the UV transmission problems. The method is established by imaging dop… Show more

“…The majority of the vesicles, however, contain serotonin and are also stained by the FM dye, and probably belong to the recycling pool, at least at the relatively long time scale of somatic exocytosis. Though less evidence is available for somatic DA vesicles, the overall organization and the kinetics of exocytosis appear to be similar to those observed for the somatic serotonergic machinery [58]. While the effect of amyloids on the relative size of these somatic vesicular pools is not known, such experiments are, in principle, doable with the technology we have developed.…”

“…Somatic release has been observed in multiple systems, including serotonergic neurons such as the Retzius neurons of leech [45,51,52], mesencephalic trigeminal nucleus of rat [53], primary cultures of raphe neurons and raphe slices of rats [49,50,54], and serotonergic neurons obtained from differentiated human embryonic stem cells [55]. It has also been observed in DA neurons of rats and mice [56][57][58]. While the precise role of somatic exocytosis is unclear, it is hypothesized to mediate responses which persist for long durations, for example, mood changes [46].…”

“…They detected leukocytes with two‐photon excitation tryptophan autofluorescence of endogenous proteins. Maiti and co‐workers measured the dynamics of neural transmitters, such as dopamine and serotonin, in brain slices and cultured neural cells by autofluorescence at two‐photon excitations of DUV absorption bands.…”
