    Abstract Intravital imaging is a powerful tool for analyzing cellular functions in living animals. In particular, after the two-photon microscopy technique was introduced, a number of studies have visualized important processes. Here, we describe the methods for performing intravital imaging of the central nervous system. This method can be used for imaging not only lymphocytes but also blood vessels for ischemia studies, as well as glia cell activities.

    Abstract Intravital imaging is becoming more popular and is being used to visualize cellular motility and functions. In contrast to in vitro analysis, which resembles in vivo analysis, intravital imaging can be used to observe and analyze cells directly in vivo. In this review, I will summarize recent imaging studies of autoreactive T cell infiltration into the central nervous system (CNS) and provide technical background. During their in vivo journey, autoreactive T cells interact with many different cells. At first, autoreactive T cells interact with endothelial cells in the airways of the lung or with splenocytes, where they acquire a migratory phenotype to infiltrate into the CNS. After arriving at the CNS, they interact with endothelial cells of the leptomeningeal vessels or the choroid plexus before passing through the blood-brain barrier. CNS-infiltrating T cells become activated by recognizing endogenous autoantigens presented by local antigen-presenting cells (APCs). This activation was visualized in vivo by using protein-based sensors. One such sensor detects changes in intracellular calcium concentration as an early marker of T cell activation. Another sensor detects translocation of Nuclear factor of activated T-cells (NFAT) from cytosol to nucleus as a definitive sign of T cell activation. Importantly, intravital imaging is not just used to visualize cellular behavior. Together with precise analysis, intravital imaging deepens our knowledge of cellular functions in living organs and also provides a platform for developing therapeutic treatments.

    Abstract Vizantin, 6,6'-bis-O-(3-nonyldodecanoyl)-α,α'-trehalose, has been developed as a safe immunostimulator on the basis of a structure-activity relationship study with trehalose 6,6'-dicorynomycolate. Our recent study indicated that vizantin acts as an effective Toll-like receptor-4 (TLR4) partial agonist to reduce the lethality of an immune shock caused by lipopolysaccharide (LPS). However, because vizantin has low solubility in water, the aqueous solution used in in vivo assay systems settles out in tens of minutes. Here, vizantin was chemically modified in an attempt to facilitate the preparation of an aqueous solution of the drug. This paper describes the concise synthesis of a water-soluble vizantin analogue in which all the hydroxyl groups of the sugar unit were replaced by sulfates. The vizantin derivative displayed micelle-forming ability in water and potent TLR-4 partial agonist activity.
