Abstract
Exocytosis involving the fusion of intracellular vesicles with cell membrane, is thought to be modulated by the mechanical cues in the microenvironment. Single-cell electrochemistry can offer unique information about the quantification and kinetics of exocytotic events; however, the effects of mechanical force on vesicular release have been poorly explored. Herein, we developed a stretchable microelectrode with excellent electrochemical stability under mechanical deformation by microfabrication of functionalized poly(3,4-ethylenedioxythiophene) conductive ink, which achieved real-time quantitation of strain-induced vesicular exocytosis from a single cell for the first time. We found that mechanical strain could cause calcium influx via the activation of Piezo1 channels in chromaffin cell, initiating the vesicular exocytosis process. Interestingly, mechanical strain increases the amount of catecholamines released by accelerating the opening and prolonging the closing of fusion pore during exocytosis. This work is expected to provide revealing insights into the regulatory effects of mechanical stimuli on vesicular exocytosis.

Abstract
Measuring cell secretion events is crucial to understand the fundamental cell biology that underlies cell-cell communication, migration, proliferation, and differentiation. Although strategies targeting cell populations have provided significant information about live cell secretion, they yield ensemble profiles that obscure intrinsic cell-to-cell variations. Innovation in single-cell analysis has made breakthroughs allowing accurate sensing of a wide variety of secretions and their release dynamics with high spatiotemporal resolution. This perspective focuses on the power of single-cell protocols to revolutionize cell-secretion analysis by allowing real-time and real-space measurements on single live cell resolution. We begin by discussing recent progress on single-cell bioanalytical techniques, specifically optical sensing strategies such as fluorescence-, surface plasmon resonance-, and surface-enhanced Raman scattering-based strategies, capable of in situ real-time monitoring of single-cell released ions, metabolites, proteins, and vesicles. Single-cell sensing platforms which allow for high-throughput high-resolution analysis with enough accuracy are highlighted. Furthermore, we discuss remaining challenges that should be addressed to get a more comprehensive understanding of secretion biology. Finally, future opportunities and potential breakthroughs in secretome analysis that will arise as a result of further development of single-cell sensing approaches are discussed.

Abstract
Amperometry with ultramicroelectrodes is nowadays a routine technique to investigate neurotransmitter secretion by vesicular exocytosis at the single-cell level. This electroanalytical tool allows one to understand many aspects of the vesicular release in terms of mechanisms. However, the electrochemical detection relies on the oxidation of released neurotransmitters that produce 2H+ and thus the possible acidification of the cell-electrode cleft. In a previous work, we considered a model involving the H+ diffusion or/and its reaction with buffer species. In this article, we report a more general model which takes into account the ability of buffer species to move and to be regenerated within the cell-electrode cleft. As a consequence, the pH within the cleft is still equal to its physiological value regardless of the electrochemical detection of the vesicular release for usual exocytotic cell frequencies. This confirms that amperometry at the single-cell level is a very robust technique for investigating vesicular exocytosis.

Abstract
This short review is aimed at emphasizing the most prominent recent works devoted to the fluorescence modulation of organic fluorescent or fluorogenic molecules by electrochemistry. This still expanding research field not only addresses the smart uses of known molecules or the design of new ones, but also investigates the development of instrumentation providing time- and space-resolved information at the molecular level. Important considerations including fluorescent/fluorogenic probes, reversible/irreversible fluorescence switch, direct/indirect fluorescence modulation, or environment properties are especially scrutinized in recent works dealing with bioanalysis perspectives.
