    Abstract Inflammation of the CNS can have devastating, long-lived, and in some cases fatal consequences for patients. The stimuli that can induce CNS inflammation are diverse, and include infectious agents, autoimmune responses against CNS-expressed antigens, and sterile inflammation following ischemia or traumatic injury. In these conditions, cells of the immune system play central roles in promulgation and resolution of the inflammatory response. However, the immunological mechanisms at work in these diverse responses differ according to the nature of the response. Our understanding of the actions of immune cells in the CNS has been restricted by the difficulty in visualising leukocytes as they undergo recruitment from the cerebral microvasculature and following their entry into the CNS parenchyma. However, advances in in vivo microscopy over the last 10-15 years have overcome many of these difficulties, and studies using these forms of microscopy have revealed a wealth of new information regarding the cellular and molecular mechanisms of CNS inflammation. This Research Topic brings together state of the art reviews examining the use of in vivo imaging in investigating inflammation and leukocyte behaviour in the CNS. Papers in this Research Topic describe how in vivo microscopy has increased our understanding of the actions of immune cells in the inflamed CNS, following various stimuli including autoimmunity, infection and sterile inflammation

    Abstract Regulatory T cells play key roles in skin homeostasis and inflammation and in regulating antitumor responses. Understanding of the biology of this cell type has been improved by the use of intravital microscopy for their visualization in various organs. Here we describe a multiphoton microscopy-based technique for intravital imaging of regulatory T cells in the skin. We provide a protocol for a model of antigen-dependent inflammation that induces robust regulatory T cell recruitment to the skin and describe the use of a regulatory T cell reporter mouse for visualization of these cells in inflamed skin.

    Abstract The exit of leukocytes from the bloodstream into inflamed sites involves a sequence of interactions with vascular endothelial cells, in which leukocytes, moving rapidly in flowing blood, first tether and roll on the endothelial surface before arresting and then transmigrating across the endothelial barrier. Examining the mechanisms of these interactions in human systems has involved the use of in vitro flow chamber assays, using a variety of cells and immobilized molecules as adhesive substrata. Here we describe how to perform these assays using human umbilical vein endothelial cells and human leukocytes.

    Abstract The actions of immune cells within the kidney are of fundamental importance in kidney homeostasis and disease. In disease settings such as acute kidney injury, anti-neutrophil cytoplasmic antibody-associated vasculitis, lupus nephritis and renal transplant rejection, immune cells resident within the kidney and those recruited from the circulation propagate inflammatory responses with deleterious effects on the kidney. As in most forms of inflammation, intravital imaging - particularly two-photon microscopy - has been critical to our understanding of immune cell responses in the renal microvasculature and interstitium, enabling visualization of immune cell dynamics over time rather than statically. These studies have demonstrated differences in the recruitment and function of these cells from those in more conventional vascular beds, and provided a wealth of information on the actions of blood-borne immune cells such as neutrophils, monocytes and T cells, as well as kidney-resident mononuclear phagocytes, in a range of diseases affecting different kidney compartments. In particular, in vivo imaging has furthered our understanding of leukocyte function within the glomerulus in acute glomerulonephritis, and in the tubulointerstitium and interstitial microvasculature during acute kidney injury and following transplantation, revealing mechanisms of immune surveillance, antigen presentation and inflammation in the kidney.

    Abstract In addition to their roles in hemostasis and thrombosis, platelets are now recognized as making important contributions to a wide variety of inflammatory responses. This function primarily occurs as a result of intravascular interactions of platelets with leukocytes undergoing recruitment to the site of inflammation. As these interactions occur under the shear forces of flowing blood, they are typically rapid and highly dynamic. As such, the use of rapid frame-rate forms of

    Abstract Purpose: There is a worldwide shortage of organs for transplantation. One method to increase the number of organs available for transplant is to increase the number of registered organ donors. The emergency department (ED) may be a suitable venue to disseminate knowledge to patients about organ donation, and to offer an immediate or future opportunity to register as an organ donor. This study aimed to assess emergency physicians' attitudes and acceptability of an ED-based organ donation registration initiative.
    Methods: We developed and distributed a national postal survey using a modified Dillman's tailored design technique to a random sample of emergency physicians selected from the Canadian Medical Directory.
    Results: From a total of 474 delivered surveys, we received 228 responses (48.1%). 98.5% of emergency physicians support the concept of deceased organ donation. 85.1% felt that the emergency department is an appropriate setting to disseminate information regarding organ donation and 77.6% felt that it is an appropriate location to offer an immediate opportunity to register as an organ donor. 74.1% of physicians who responded report to be personally registered as an organ donor.
    Conclusion: Most emergency physicians are supportive of organ donation promotion in the ED, including offering an immediate opportunity to register.

    Abstract In vivo visualization of the microvasculature of the mouse cremaster muscle has been fruitful in the evaluation of the role of macrophage migration inhibitory factor in promotion of leukocyte trafficking. Here we explain how to undertake this preparation, including details on mouse anesthesia, securing intravenous access, and cremaster muscle exteriorization. We also provide information on the various microscopy modalities now available for imaging microvascular preparations of this nature.
