Abstract:
:Lipofuscin-specific autofluorescence of living, cultured rat neonatal myocardial myocytes was studied with respect to intensity and spectral characteristics. The autofluorescence emission spectrum changed over time indicating continuously ongoing intramolecular reorganisation of the pigment. Moreover, as compared with formaldehyde-fixed material native lipofuscin produced a considerable red-shifted autofluorescence, indicating formaldehyde-induced molecular modification or quenching of certain parts of the spectrum. The relationship between oxidative stress and lipofuscinogenesis was confirmed because the rate of lipofuscin accumulation was increased when cells were grown at increasing ambient oxygen concentrations.
