Abstract | cGMP is an important signalling molecule in humans. Fluorescent cGMP biosensors have emerged as powerful tools for the sensitive analysis of cGMP pathways at the single-cell level. Here, we briefly outline cGMP's multifaceted role in (patho)physiology and pharmacotherapy. Then we summarise what new insights cGMP imaging has provided into endogenous cGMP signalling and drug action, with a focus on the cardiovascular system. Indeed, the use of cGMP biosensors has led to several conceptual advances, such as the discovery of local, intercellular and mechanosensitive cGMP signals. Importantly, single-cell imaging can provide valuable information about the heterogeneity of cGMP signals within and between individual cells of an isolated cell population or tissue. We also discuss current challenges and future directions of cGMP imaging, such as the direct visualisation of cGMP microdomains, simultaneous monitoring of cGMP and other signalling molecules and, ultimately, cGMP imaging in tissues and animals under close-to-native conditions.
