Abstract: State-of-the-art
tissue clearing methods provide unprecedented, high-quality optical access to
very large biological specimens from individual organs to entire intact
animals. When combined with light-sheet microscopy and image informatics,
currently available tissue-clearing methods including a hydrophilic tissue
clearing method CUBIC, allows us to perform whole-brain and whole-body imaging
with sub-cellular resolution. In addition, delipidation of biological specimens
by tissue-clearing methods enables whole-organ staining with specific
antibodies, which can be applied even to human biology and pathology. When
combined with tissue clearing, these labelling methods allow us to
systematically extract structural and functional information of complex
mammalian organs. In this talk, I discuss how tissue-clearing and its related
technologies have been successfully integrated to create new biological
insights and provide a perspective for future opportunities in biology and
medicine.
