Ex Vivo Imaging of Ultrasound-Stimulated Metabolic Activity in Rat Pancreatic Slices
Abstract
Ultrasound has previously been reported to produce a reversible stimulatory effect in cultured rat beta cells. Here, we quantified and assessed dynamic metabolic changes in an in situ pancreatic slice model evoked by ultrasound application. After plating, pancreas slices were imaged using a confocal microscope at 488 and 633 nm to image lipodamine dehydrogenase (Lip-DH) autofluorescence and a far red fluorescence, respectively. Ultrasound was …
