Fluorescence Imaging of Actin Fine Structure in Tumor Tissues Using SiR-Actin Staining.

Abstract:

BACKGROUND:The rearrangement of actin cytoskeleton is being increasingly considered a marker of cancer cell activity, but the fine structure and remodeling of microfilaments within tumor tissue still remains unclear. MATERIALS AND METHODS:We used the recently introduced silicon-rhodamine (SiR)-actin dye to visualize endogenous actin within tissues by confocal or total internal reflection fluorescence microscopy. We established imaging conditions for robust blinking of SiR-actin, which makes this dye applicable for super-resolution localization microscopy, as well as for an efficient background elimination. RESULTS:We studied tumor tissue samples in two mouse models at high resolution and revealed a complex network of thick curved bundles of actin in cancer cells in tumors. This actin pattern differed strongly from that in cancer cells in vitro and in normal tissues. CONCLUSION:Localization microscopy with SiR-actin provides an efficient way to visualize fine actin structure in tumor tissues. It is potentially applicable to a variety of biological and clinical samples.
