| Outline of Final Research Achievements |
I developed a comprehensive molecular imaging method for analyzing biological tissue without labeling. In this method, tissue autofluorescence is excited with ultraviolet light and intrinsically fluorescent molecules are simultaneously excited and comprehensively measured. By measuring rat liver tissue with this method and analyzing the data acquired, I have succeeded multicolor imaging of distributions of various molecules such as retinol and tryptophan in the liver tissue without labeling. Additionally, by measuring and comparing normal and fatty liver tissues, I have found the method as potentially useful for analyzing and diagnosing liver disease. I have also developed a practically useful microscope enabling fluorescence hyperspectral imaging at ultraviolet excitation. This microscope has allowed a fast measurement of biological tissue without such pretreatment as staining and fixation with a wide field of view as well as a high spatial resolution.
