體視顯微鏡熒光適配器用于mCherry和eGFP在斑馬魚上的表達(dá)

馬里蘭大學(xué)巴爾的摩分校使用美國(guó)NIGHTSEA的SFA體視顯微鏡熒光適配器系統(tǒng)用于篩選他們的轉(zhuǎn)基因斑馬魚溉躲。該研究小組研究了與代謝性疾病相關(guān)的基因的功能榜田，包括糖尿病，肥胖癥和NAFLD / NASH（非酒精性脂肪性肝病/非酒精性脂肪性肝炎）锻梳。產(chǎn)生胰島素的β（β）細(xì)胞發(fā)生在胰腺的胰島中箭券，在維持葡萄糖水平方面至關(guān)重要。它們是代謝疾病社區(qū)的一個(gè)重要研究課題疑枯，斑馬魚β細(xì)胞在功能和發(fā)育方面都與哺乳動(dòng)物相似辩块。在我們觀察的幼蟲發(fā)育階段，Dunleavey博士估計(jì)胰島含有大約35 β細(xì)胞荆永。斑馬魚模型表達(dá)了兩種熒光報(bào)告基因—— 胰腺外分泌的eGFP和β細(xì)胞中的mCherry（ptf1a：eGFP和ins：mCherry废亭，也稱為exocrine eGFP和β細(xì)胞mCherry）——Dunleavey博士希望能夠同時(shí)看到它們。

Zebrafish Metabolic Disease Reporters – mCherry and eGFP

NIGHTSEA recently visited Dr. Jessica Dunleavey at the Zaghloul Lab at the University of Maryland Baltimore to determine whether our Model SFA Stereo Microscope Fluorescence Adapter system could be used to screen their transgenic zebrafish. The research group investigates the functions of genes associated with metabolic diseases including diabetes, obesity, and NAFLD/NASH (nonalcoholic fatty liver disease / nonalcoholic steatohepatitis). Insulin-producing β (beta) cells occur in islets in the pancreas  and are critically important in maintaining glucose levels. They are a significant study topic in the metabolic disease community, and zebrafish β cells are similar to those in mammals both functionally and developmentally. At the stage of larval development we looked at, Dr. Dunleavey estimated that the islet contained approximately 35 β cells. The zebrafish model expresses two fluorescent reporters – eGFP in the exocrine pancreas and mCherry in the β cells (ptf1a:eGFP and ins:mCherry, also known as exocrine eGFP and β cell mCherry) – and Dr. Dunleavey hoped to be able to see both of them.

The test was successful. The images below were made quickly with an iPhone hand-held over the eyepiece of a Nikon SMZ1000 stereo microscope outfitted with the NIGHTSEA SFA. The Royal Blue excitation/emission set was used for imaging eGFP, and the Green set for imaging mCherry.
