MOTION UNDER THE MICROSCOPE: MODERN TECHNIQUES FOR STUDYING CELL ADHESION AND MOTILITY Paweł Pomorski Laboratory of the Molecular Basis of Cell Motility Nencki Institute of Experimental Biology, Warsaw, Poland Ability to move is one of the fundamental functions of the living cells. It is due to the motility that organism develops, immune system can work, organs are able to regenerate and wound heal. In the same time motility studies are among methodologically most difficult ones. Biochemical processes underlying motility are notoriously unsynchronized and motile cells are usually not very numerous. Current paper reviews microscope techniques developed to solve those problems. We discuss basic measurements, parameterizing motility and substratum adhesion. Classical, structural microscopy used for motility studies are also sketched shortly. We describe also use of molecular probes for signaling studies in motile cells as well as we mention about microscopic experimental techniques, allowing experiments on single cells.

Conventional confocal microscopy is dedicated mainly to proceed with thin tissue sections and cells seeded on a cover slip. The Leica TCS LSI macro confocal is the first super zoom microscope that combines all benefits of traditional confocal microscopy with large scale imaging of anesthetized, alive objects as well as unfixed/fixed objects post mortem. In our experiments we have tested Leica TCS LSI for scanning of (1) murine brains and spinal cords in vivo, and dissected in toto immediately post mortem, and (2) fixed rat spinal cords. We used transgenic mice expressing green fluorescent protein (GFP) under PLP promoter, to visualize oligodendrocytes, and rats with spinal cords transduced with AAV vector coding for enhanced GFP under mCMV promoter, to visualize neurons and glia. Super zoom confocal microscopy let us observe general distribution of GFP- expressing cells in whole organs as well as to focus on single cells and fibers. We were able to discriminate well between main morphological features of these cells. In murine brains we could visualize myelinated axons and oligodendrocytes, whereas in rat spinal cords the extent of eGFP expressing cells and their fibers traversing along entire spinal cord could be traced. The labeled objects could be visualized from the regions lying within a range of 100 μm from the surface of the brain/spinal cord. The details on the procedures applied, benefits and limitations of the method will be presented.

One of the important processes that gain special interest is mitosis. Equal and undisturbed distribution of genetic material into two daughter cell that take place during mitosis is prerequisite of genome stability. In contrary, mitosis disturbances give rise to chromosomal instability, aneuploidy and cancer. Morphological changes that characterize mitotic cells enables to monitor cell division as well as tracking the fate of daughter cells. Moreover, transfection of the cells with vectors coding fluorescent proteins which expression changes during cell cycle make possible to follow the cell cycle progression of individual cell. One of the very interesting process that gain attention in cancer biology research is senescence of cancer cells. This process is induced during chemotherapy and thus it determine the outcome of it. Using video-microscopy we were able to show that aberrant mitosis could be the primary cause of senescence of cancer cells. Moreover video-microscopy enables to observe the fate of senescent cells and help to answer the question whether senescence of cancer cells lead to permanent growth arrest or is transient and could results in regrowth of cancer cells after therapy.

Izabela Rutkowska-Włodarczyk Laboratory of Neurobiology Nencki Institute of Experimental Biology, Warsaw, Poland Synaptic plasticity can be defined as a re-organization comprising both, alterations at the morphological level and changes at the functional level of dendritic spines, carrying postsynaptic domains of excitatory synapses. It has been reported that motor learning leads to rapid formation of dendritic spines (spinogenesis) in the motor cortex mice (Xu et al., 2009; Yang et al., 2009). Changes in spine dynamics are region- and learning-specific, indicating that motor learning causes synaptic reorganization in the corresponding motor cortex (Xu et al., 2009) and synaptic connections are not only capable of undergoing rapid changes in response to new experience but also can serve as substrates for long-term information storage (Yang et al., 2009). This is why it became important to effectively quantify changes in dendritic spine morphology. However, the results of this quantitative analysis can be largely influenced by the the diversity in dendritic spine population. The detection of differences in spine morphology between control and test group is often compromised by the number of dendritic spines taken for analysis. For example, to have statistically significant detection of hidden morphological differences between control and test groups in terms of spine head-width, length and area in which the values of each morphometric variable under investigation grew in a 20% rate there are required 12, 21 and 24 cells respectively with around 30 spines/cell. Simulation of changes occurring in a subpopulation of spines reveal the strong dependence of detectability on the statistical approach applied (Ruszczycki et al. 2012). This is way the best method to track spine morphology changes is live imaging. Live imaging of influence of MMP-9 enzymatic activity on spine morphology through integrins.

Ewa A. Grzybowska Cancer Center Institute, Warsaw, Poland HAX-1 is a multifunctional protein involved in several key processes like apoptosis, cell migration and regulation of calcium homeostasis, but its mechanisms of action remain unknown. HAX-1 is also known to bind to the 3'UTR of at least two mRNA targets. Our research indicate that HAX-1 co-localizes with P-body marker, decapping protein 1 (Dcp1). Using Fluorescence Recovery After Photobleaching (FRAP) technique we demonstrated that HAX-1 dynamically interchanges between P-body and the cytoplasm, but it is also bound in P-body to significant extent. Concurrently, using live-cell imaging, we showed that HAX-1 is not responsible for the immobilization of P-bodies on actin filaments.
