מַשְׁמָעוּת IR הוא אחד הגורמים המובילים של פצעי לחץ עור. בשלבים הראשונים (I ו- II) של פצעי לחץ לתאר את מצבו של העור האנושי (לעומת רקמות תת עורית הבסיסית והשרירים). עם זאת, הבנה של האטיולוגיה אימונולוגיים עדיין לוקה בחסר. כאן, אנו מציגים מ...

איסכמיה reperfusion פציעה (IRI) מתרחשת כאשר יש היפוקסיה חלף עקב החסימה של זרימת דם (איסכמיה) ואחריו מחדש חמצון הבא של הרקמות (רה-פרפוזיה). בעור, איסכמיה-רה-פרפוזיה (IR) הוא חשב להיות אחד הגורמים התורמים בפתופיזיולוגיה של פצעי לחץ, שם מנוחה במיטה ממושכת גוזר מאושפזים בבתי חולים לטווח ארוך על פשע. בחולים אלה, הוא את העור ואת השרירים הבסיסיים חשופים כל זמן בלחץ משקל המופעל על פני שטחים של בליטה גרמית, שגרמו לפציעה מקומית כי, אם אינו מטופל, עלול להפוך נימק 1. הנזקים המעורבים IRI הם שתיים. במהלך איסכמיה, על חסימת כלי דם מובילה לירידה דרסטית של אספקת חמצן לרקמות. התוצאה היא ירידה של ATP ו- pH, אשר מנטרל ATPases מעורב חילוף חומרים תאיים. בתורו, רמות סידן הסלולר ספייק, והדגישו או פגום גאמות עוברים אפופטוזיס או נמק 2. שחרור תוכן תאי או דפוסים מולקולריים הקשורים ניזק (לח), כמו HMGB1, תורם את התגובה הדלקתית 3. העלבון השני מתרחש במהלך רה-פרפוזיה. למרות שרמות החמצן pH משוחזרים במהלך רה-פרפוזיה, זו התוצאה בדור של מינים חמצן תגובתי (ROS), אשר מוביל חמצון של שומנים תאיים, DNA וחלבונים. כתוצאה מכך, מתווכים פרו-דלקתיים מופעלים, אשר מגדירה את תגובה דלקתית משני המערבת את הגיוס של תאים חיסוניים לאתר הדלקתי 2. בעוד מפל של אירועים ביוכימיים שהובילו את התגובה הדלקתית תוארה היטב, הסדרת במרחב ובזמן של פעילות התא החיסון אינם מובנים היטב. כאן אנו מתארים מודל IR חזק על עור עכבר אוזן באמצעות הידוק פשוט מגנט. יחד עם הדמיה intravital multiphoton (MP-IVM), אנוהוקם מודל ללמוד את התגובות הדלקתיות vivo ב המתרחשות לאחר רה-פרפוזיה מתרחש. הרציונל מאחורי פיתוח השימוש בטכניקה זו הוא לנסות להבין איך היא ביניים שחדר לתאים להגיב IR בזמן אמת. מודלים קיימים של IR באמצעות טכניקת ההידוק בכנף העור הם פולשני מאוד, כפי שהם דורשים ההשתלה כירורגית של לוחות פלדה ב בכנף העור, מה שהופך אותם פחות מ-אידיאלי עבור מחקרים אימונולוגית 4. טכניקת הידוק דומה פולשני תוארה ב 5,6 אגף עור עכבר. עם זאת, בשל השילוב של מרכיב הדמית intravital בשיטה זו, אנו בחרנו ב- עור האוזן כאתר IR הממוקד, כפי שהוא עוקף תנועות עקב נשימה מציע יציבות במהלך הדמית 7,8. יתר על כן, תת לויקוציטים כי היקף interstitium זהים בין עור האוזן ואת אגף העור, אם כימספרים ופרופורציות עשויים להשתנות מעט 9. לכן, עור האוזן ייצג אתר הדמיה אידיאלי. בנוסף, רוב הנתונים שנמצאו ממודלי IRI אלה מוגבלים הערכות מקרוסקופית (לדירוג של כיבים) וניתוחים מיקרוסקופים של אינדיקטורים דלקתיים סיום 10. באמצעות מודל זה, ויזואליזציה בזמן אמת של התגובה התאית של נויטרופילים לאחר רה-פרפוזיה בעור של עכבר כתב ניאון מופעלת. מודל הדמית אוזן intravital שפורסם בעבר מנוצל 8 עם שינויים נוספים (איורים 1, 2).

inducing ischemia-reperfusion injury in the mouse ear skin for intravital multiphoton imaging of immune responses

Ischemia-reperfusion injury (IRI) occurs when there is transient hypoxia due to the obstruction of blood flow (ischemia) followed by a subsequent re-oxygenation of the tissues (reperfusion). In the skin, ischemia-reperfusion (IR) is the main contributing factor to the pathophysiology of pressure ulcers. While the cascade of events leading up to the inflammatory response has been well studied, the spatial and temporal responses of the different subsets of immune cells to an IR injury are not well understood. Existing models of IR using the clamping technique on the skin flank are highly invasive and unsuitable for studying immune responses to injury, while similar non-invasive magnet clamping studies in the skin flank are less-than-ideal for intravital imaging studies. In this protocol, we describe a robust model of non-invasive IR developed on mouse ear skin, where we aim to visualize in real-time the cellular response of immune cells after reperfusion via multiphoton intravital imaging (MP-IVM).

The overall goal of this experiment is to understand how immune cells respond to ischemia reperfusion through intravital multiphoton imaging of the mouse ear skin. This method can help to address some of the very important questions in the field of Immunology and Dermatology to understand the dynamic behavior of immune cell. The main advantage of this technique is that it provide a robust imaging model for studying cellular activities in the skin under inflamed or a resting state.Though this method may provide insight into ischemic reperfusion injuries, this can also be applied to other systems such as hypersensitivity reactions as well as infections. To begin this procedure, place the mouse on a heating pad to maintain its body temperature at 37 degrees Celsius throughout the preparation procedure. Confirm the depth of anesthesia by the absence of toe pinch reflex.Next, apply ophthalmic lubricant on the animal's eyes to prevent dryness while under anesthesia. Afterward, carefully apply depilatory cream to the upper two thirds of the dorsal ear and wait for two to three minutes. Then, remove the cream using wet cotton tip applicators in a thorough but gentle manner.Now, induce ischemia in the mouse ear skin using the neodymium magnets. To do so, first slot the magnets into their individual plastic guides. Position one magnet such that only the edge will contact with a second ventral magnet, which should be placed below the ventral side of the ear with the ear laying flat on the magnet.Once ready, carefully let the magnets come together. After 1.5 hours of ischemia, remove the magnets by twisting them away from each other using the plastic guides, allowing reperfusion to take place. Immediately after magnet removal, administer Evans Blue or another blood vessel labeling agent of choice intravenously.In this step, cut two pieces of masking tape. Allow the adhesive sides to stick together whilst leaving about one millimeter of adhesive along its width. Then, cut the masking tape in two to accommodate its placement within the slit on the ear platform.Insert this masking tape about halfway through the slit such that the adhesive side faces up. After that, position the mouse on the heating pad such that the ear to be imaged is next to the masking tape strip. By using two PBS moistened cotton tip applicators, gently press the ear against the adhesive strip.Using the strip as a guide, bring the mouse ear through the slit while simultaneously adjusting the mouse closer towards the stage. As the ear skin is very fragile, this step must be done very carefully to avoid any preparation-induced injuries. To remove the sticky tape, first add a drop of PBS to reduce the adhesiveness of the tape.Then, separate the mouse ear from the masking tape as gently as possible using a fine paint brush. Flatten the ear against the ear platform by gently rolling a moist cotton tip applicator over the ear. Subsequently, put a drop of PBS underneath the coverslip and gently place it over the ear.Afterward, insert the rectal temperature probe and connect the wires to the heating system according to manufacturer's instructions. To acquire images, place the animal under the multiphoton microscope. Start with an imaging region that is in close proximity to the edge of the ischemia characterized by massive Evans Blue leakage.The schematic diagram here shows the positioning of the magnets. These two photos show a pre-ischemic and a post-ischemic ear after magnet clamping. In this schematic of the ear indicates the region imaged with respect to where the magnet had been placed.This time lapse sequence of maximum projection, shows the neutrophil infiltration in response to reperfusion in LysM-eGFPM albino mouse ear skin after 1.5 hours of ischemia. At earlier time points, the lack of Evans Blue signal indicates temporary vessel occlusion after ischemia. Once mastered, preparations for the ischemic reperfused ear for imaging can be done in less than 30 minutes if it is performed properly.While performing this procedure, it is important to constantly check the depth of anesthesia and the temperature of the mouse. Following this procedure, other method like whole mouse staining of the mouse ear skin can be performed to have a global view of the cellular localizations. After the developments of this protocol, it paved the way for researcher in the field of Immunology and Dermatology to explore innate immunity in the mouse ear skin.After watching these videos, you should have a good understanding of how to establish a mouse ear skin imaging model to study ischemic reperfusion injury. Don't forget that working with multiphoto microscope can be hazardous. And precautions such as laser safety training should be undertaken.
