In Vivo Multicolor Imaging with Fluorescent Probes Revealed the Dynamics and Function of Osteoclast Proton Pumps.


ABSTRACT: In vivo two-photon fluorescence imaging is a powerful modality to monitor cell dynamics in biomedical studies. To detect protein functions in living animals in real-time, fluorescent probes must show a quick response to the target function in specific tissues. Here, we developed a rhodamine-based small-molecule fluorescent probe called Red-pHocas (red pH-activatable fluorescent probe for osteoclast activity sensing) to reversibly detect the acidic environments for the spatiotemporal analysis of the function of osteoclast proton pumps. The introduction of electron-withdrawing N-alkyl substituents in the rhodamine spirolactam fluorophore remarkably increased the kinetics of the fluorescence response to acidic pHs, which allowed the rapid and reversible monitoring of acidic compartments and the analysis of the dynamics of osteoclast proton pumps during osteoclastic bone resorption. In vivo multicolor two-photon imaging using Red-pHocas in fluorescent reporter mice revealed that bone acidification occurred synchronously with the accumulation of proton pumps onto the bone surfaces. To our knowledge, this is the first study to demonstrate the direct involvement of osteoclast proton pumps in bone acidification under intravital conditions by means of an imaging probe.
