Outline of Final Research Achievements |
Current biopsy and histology have long relied on thin-sectioned 2D images with several chemical staining methods and specific immunohistochemistry. Facile 3D visualization of human brain tissue with single-cell resolution would provide a novel concept of the neuropathological diagnosis and contribute our understanding of pathological mechanisms based on comprehensive and quantitative analysis of individual biomarker. In this project, we aimed at establishing a novel 3D neuropathology by developing highly efficient clearing and staining protocol for human brain tissue and combining with a rapid 3D imaging using light-sheet fluorescence microscopy. As a result, we developed versatile immunohistochemical method and a series of chemical probes for vasculature, cytoplasm, and senile plaques in human brain tissue.
