In Vivo Bioluminescence Imaging for Longitudinal Monitoring of Inflammation in Animal Models of Uveitis

Abstract: PurposeWe develop a quantitative bioluminescence assay for in vivo longitudinal monitoring of inflammation in animal models of uveitis.MethodsThree models of experimental uveitis were induced in C57BL/6 albino mice: primed mycobacterial uveitis (PMU), endotoxin-induced uveitis (EIU), and experimental autoimmune uveitis (EAU). Intraperitoneal injection of luminol sodium salt, which emits light when oxidized, provided the bioluminescence substrate. Bioluminescence images were captured by a PerkinElmer In Vivo Im… Show more

“…Mice were positioned on the IVIS warming stage in the infected eye lateral decubitus position with the ocular surface directly facing the camera sensor. In vivo imaging parameters were determined using standard optimization protocols . Mice were imaged using a field of view ‘C’ with medium binning for 1 min.…”

“…The utility of OCT has also been compared to luminol‐based bioluminescence imaging in three rodent models of anterior uveitis . Here, the authors used SD‐OCT to assess anterior chamber cell counts and corneal oedema as robust signs of inflammation in the experimental models of anterior uveitis .…”

“…The utility of OCT has also been compared to luminol‐based bioluminescence imaging in three rodent models of anterior uveitis . Here, the authors used SD‐OCT to assess anterior chamber cell counts and corneal oedema as robust signs of inflammation in the experimental models of anterior uveitis . A recently‐developed method for automated 3‐D cell counting also demonstrates the potential for AS‐OCT to accurately detect and quantify cell populations within the whole anterior chamber, longitudinally up to 14 days post‐injury in a mouse model of uveitis .…”

“…However, EAU was still difficult to quantify. 16,17 Optical coherence tomography (OCT) is a noninvasive in vivo imaging modality that provides structural information with resolution at micrometer level and can be performed repeatedly on living animals. Retinal OCT has been described for use in EAU previously to show the retinal changes.…”
