Sánchez, Chair Erik Bodegom Ralf Widenhorn Robert Strongin Portland State University 2017 ABSTRACT As optical microscopy techniques continue to improve, most notably the development of super-resolution optical microscopy which garnered the Nobel Prize in Chemistry in 2014, renewed emphasis has been placed on the development and use of fluorescence microscopy techniques. Of particular note is a renewed interest in multiphoton excitation due to a number of inherent properties of the technique including simplified optical filtering, increased sample penetration, and inherently confocal operation. With this renewed interest in multiphoton fluorescence microscopy, comes increased interest in and demand for robust non-linear fluorescent markers, and characterization of the associated tool set.

SHG is a non-linear process that produces a frequency doubling of the intense laser field impinging on a material with a high second order susceptibility. It shares many of the advantageous features for microscopy of another more established non-linear optical technique: two-photon excited fluorescence (TPEF). Both are capable of optical sectioning to produce 3D images of thick specimens and both result in less photodamage to living tissue than confocal microscopy. SHG is complementary to TPEF in that it uses a different contrast mechanism and is most easily detected in the transmitted light optical path. It also does not arise via photon emission from molecular excited states, as do both 1- and 2-photon excited fluorescence. SHG of intrinsic highly ordered biological structures such as collagen has been known for some time but only recently has the full potential of high resolution 3D SHIM been demonstrated on live cells and tissues. For example, Figure 1 shows SHIM from microtubules in a living organism, C. elegans. The images were obtained from a transgenic nematode that expresses a ß-tubulin-green fluorescent protein fusion and Figure 1 also shows the TPEF image from this molecule for comparison.

This technology enables noninvasive study of biological specimens in three dimensions with submicrometer resolution. Two-photon excitation of fluorophores results from the simultaneous absorption of two photons. This excitation process has a number of unique advantages, such as reduced specimen photodamage and enhanced penetration depth. It also produces higher-contrast im- ages and is a novel method to trigger localized photochemical reactions. Two-photon microscopy continues to find an increasing number of applications in biology and medicine.

Abstract: Multiphoton microscopy has recently passed the milestone of its first 30 years of activity in biomedical research. The growing interest around this approach has led to a variety of applications from basic research to clinical practice. Moreover, this technique offers the advantage of label-free multiphoton imaging to analyze samples without staining processes and the need for a dedicated system. Here, we review the state of the art of label-free techniques; then, we focus on two-photon autofluorescence as well as second and third harmonic generation, describing physical and technical characteristics. We summarize some successful applications to a plethora of biomedical research fields and samples, underlying the versatility of this technique. A paragraph is dedicated to an overview of sample preparation, which is a crucial step in every microscopy experiment.

  • Super-Resolution Microscopy 1
    Semrock White Paper Series: Super-resolution Microscopy 1. Introduction Fluorescence microscopy has revolutionized the study of biological samples. Ever since the invention of fluorescence microscopy towards the beginning of the 20th century, significant technological advances have enabled elucidation of biological phenomenon at cellular, sub- cellular and even at molecular levels. However, the latest incarnation of the modern fluorescence microscope has led to a paradigm shift. This wave is about breaking the diffraction limit first proposed in 1873 by Ernst Abbe. The implications of this development are profound. This new technology, called super-resolution microscopy, allows for the visualization of cellular samples with a resolution similar to that of an electron microscope, yet it retains the advantages of an optical fluorescence microscope. This means it is possible to uniquely visualize desired molecular species in a cellular environment, even in three dimensions and now in live cells – all at a scale comparable to the spatial dimensions of the molecules under investigation. This article provides an overview of some of the key recent developments in super-resolution microscopy. 2. The problem So what is wrong with a conventional fluorescence microscope? To understand the answer to this question, consider a Green Fluorescence Protein (GFP) molecule that is about 3 nm in diameter and about 4 nm long. When a single GFP molecule is imaged using a 100X objective the size of the image should be 0.3 to 0.4 microns (100 times the size of the object). Yet the smallest spot that can be seen at the camera is about 25 microns. Which corresponds to an object size of about 250 nm.

Although these approaches are powerful, they have very limited consideration of the spatial and temporal organization of gene expression. Although the spatial organization and dynamics of RNA polymerase II (RNAPII) transcription machinery have fundamental functional consequences for gene expression, its detailed studies have been abrogated by the limits of classical light microscopy for a long time. The advent of super-resolution microscopy (SRM) techniques allowed for the visualization of the RNAPII transcription machinery with nanometer resolution and millisecond precision. In this review, we summarize the recent methodological advances in SRM, focus on its application for studies of the nanoscale organization in space and time of RNAPII transcription, and discuss its consequences for the mechanistic understanding of gene expression.

Hell and W. E. Moerner the Nobel Prize in Chemistry 2014 for the development of super-resolution fluorescence microscopy. 1. Abbe’s diffraction limit Towards the end of the nineteenth century Ernst Abbe (Abbe, 1873) and Lord Rayleigh (Rayleigh, 1896) formulated what is commonly known as the “diffraction limit” for microscopy. Roughly speaking, this limit states that it is impossible to resolve two elements of a structure which are closer to each other than about half the wave length (λ) in the lateral (x,y) plane and even further apart in the longitudinal plane (z). In other words, the minimal distances (δxmin, δymin) that, according to Abbe’s criterion, can be resolved in the lateral plane are approximated by xymin, min / 2 Another consequence of the same diffraction limitation is that it is not possible to focus a laser beam to a spot of smaller dimension than about λ/2 (Fig. 1). Figure 1: (Huang et al., 2010, Cell, 143, 1047 – 57). A: (left) Focused laser beam, (middle) structure, (right) resolved (A) and not resolved (B) structural features.
