Abstract
An important goal for in vivo imaging is to be able to non-invasively image single cells. The Olympus IV100 Laser Scanning Microscope, with ultra-thin microscope objectives ("stick objectives"), was used for three-color whole-body imaging of individual two-color cancer cells interacting with the GFP-expressing stromal cells. Cellular dynamics were non-invasively imaged including mitotic and apoptotic tumor cells, stromal cells interacting with the tumor cells, tumor vasculature, and tumor blood flow. This imageable model should lead to a new paradigm of in vivo cancer cell biology and to new visible real-time targets for cancer drug discovery.
