Research Abstract |
We developed high-resolution cardiac imaging systems both in cells and in vivo. First, by using quantum dots (QDs), we measured the length of a single sarcomere in isolated rat cardiomyocytes. QDs provided a quantitative measurement of sarcomere length. Second, we measured sarcomere length in AcGFP-expressing rat neonatal cardiomyocytes(precision, 3 nm). Neonatal myocytes exhibited spontaneous sarcomeric oscillations, and the waveform properties were indistinguishable from those obtained in electric field stimulation. Third, we conducted Ca imaging in the isolated mouse heart. Ca waves/transients became synchronized by electric stimulation. Forth, by using the adenovirus vector system, we developed an experimental system allowing for the real-time imaging of sarcomeric motions in ventricular myocytes in the anesthetized mouse (precision,20 nm). These molecular imaging technologies will be useful for the development of a novel diagnostic device for heart disease in future studies.
