摘要
We have used N-[5-(5,7-dimethyl boron dipyrromethene difluoride)-1-pentanoyl]-D-erythro-sphingosylphosphorylcholine (C-5-DMB-SM or 'BODIPY(TM)-SM'), a fluorescent analog of sphingomyelin, to study lipid transport along the endocytic pathway of human skin fibroblasts. The unique spectral properties of the BODIPY(TM) fluorophore allow the investigator to distinguish various populations of labeled endosomes and lysosomes within the living cell by fluorescence microscopy, and in conjunction with quantitative fluorescence microscopy, to estimate the concentration of these lipids in different intracellular compartments. This methodology is also applicable for visualizing the accumulation of lipids in the endosomes and lysosomes of storage disease fibroblasts. (C) 1999 Elsevier Science Ireland Ltd.
