Confocal laser endomicroscope with distal MEMS scanner for real-time histopathology. Sci Rep 2022; 12:20155. [PMID: 36418439 PMCID: PMC9684518 DOI: 10.1038/s41598-022-24210-9] [Citation(s) in RCA: 5] [Impact Index Per Article: 2.5] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 07/26/2022] [Accepted: 11/11/2022] [Indexed: 11/25/2022] Open
Abstract
Confocal laser endomicroscopy is an emerging methodology to perform real time optical biopsy. Fluorescence images with histology-like quality can be collected instantaneously from the epithelium of hollow organs. Currently, scanning is performed at the proximal end of probe-based instruments used routinely in the clinic, and flexibility to control the focus is limited. We demonstrate use of a parametric resonance scanner packaged in the distal end of the endomicroscope to perform high speed lateral deflections. An aperture was etched in the center of the reflector to fold the optical path. This design reduced the dimensions of the instrument to 2.4 mm diameter and 10 mm length, allowing for forward passage through the working channel of a standard medical endoscope. A compact lens assembly provides lateral and axial resolution of 1.1 and 13.6 μm, respectively. A working distance of 0 μm and field-of-view of 250 μm × 250 μm was achieved at frame rates up to 20 Hz. Excitation at 488 nm was delivered to excite fluorescein, an FDA-approved dye, to generate high tissue contrast. The endomicroscope was reprocessed using a clinically-approved sterilization method for 18 cycles without failure. Fluorescence images were collected during routine colonoscopy from normal colonic mucosa, tubular adenomas, hyperplastic polyps, ulcerative colitis, and Crohn's colitis. Individual cells, including colonocytes, goblet cells, and inflammatory cells, could be identified. Mucosal features, such as crypt structures, crypt lumens, and lamina propria, could be distinguished. This instrument has potential to be used as an accessory during routine medical endoscopy.

Predictive Markers of Immunogenicity and Efficacy for Human Vaccines. Vaccines (Basel) 2021; 9:579. [PMID: 34205932 PMCID: PMC8226531 DOI: 10.3390/vaccines9060579] [Citation(s) in RCA: 14] [Impact Index Per Article: 4.7] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 04/30/2021] [Revised: 05/22/2021] [Accepted: 05/24/2021] [Indexed: 02/07/2023] Open
Abstract
Vaccines represent one of the major advances of modern medicine. Despite the many successes of vaccination, continuous efforts to design new vaccines are needed to fight "old" pandemics, such as tuberculosis and malaria, as well as emerging pathogens, such as Zika virus and severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2). Vaccination aims at reaching sterilizing immunity, however assessing vaccine efficacy is still challenging and underscores the need for a better understanding of immune protective responses. Identifying reliable predictive markers of immunogenicity can help to select and develop promising vaccine candidates during early preclinical studies and can lead to improved, personalized, vaccination strategies. A systems biology approach is increasingly being adopted to address these major challenges using multiple high-dimensional technologies combined with in silico models. Although the goal is to develop predictive models of vaccine efficacy in humans, applying this approach to animal models empowers basic and translational vaccine research. In this review, we provide an overview of vaccine immune signatures in preclinical models, as well as in target human populations. We also discuss high-throughput technologies used to probe vaccine-induced responses, along with data analysis and computational methodologies applied to the predictive modeling of vaccine efficacy.
