Abstract
Single cell analysis is an emerging field requiring a high level interdisciplinary collaboration to provide detailed insights into the complex organisation, function and heterogeneity of life. This review is addressed to life science researchers as well as researchers developing novel technologies. It covers all aspects of the characterisation of single cells (with a special focus on mammalian cells) from morphology to genetics and different omics-techniques to physiological, mechanical and electrical methods. In recent years, tremendous advances have been achieved in all fields of single cell analysis: (1) improved spatial and temporal resolution of imaging techniques to enable the tracking of single molecule dynamics within single cells; (2) increased throughput to reveal unexpected heterogeneity between different individual cells raising the question what characterizes a cell type and what is just natural biological variation; and (3) emerging multimodal approaches trying to bring together information from complementary techniques paving the way for a deeper understanding of the complexity of biological processes. This review also covers the first successful translations of single cell analysis methods to diagnostic applications in the field of tumour research (especially circulating tumour cells), regenerative medicine, drug discovery and immunology.

Abstract
X-ray absorption spectroscopy (XAS) and micro-synchrotron based X-ray fluorescence (micro-SXRF) are element specific spectroscopic techniques and have been proven to be valuable tools for the investigation of changes in the chemical environment of metal centres. XAS allows the determination of the oxidation state, the coordination motif of the probed element, the identity and the number of adjacent atoms and the absorber-ligand distances. It is further applicable to nearly all types of samples independent of their actual physical state (solid, liquid, gaseous) down to μM concentrations. Micro-SXRF can provide information on the distribution and concentration of multiple elements within a sample simultaneously, allowing for the chemical state of several elements within subcellular compartments to be probed. Modern third generation synchrotrons offer the possibility to investigate the majority of the biologically relevant elements. The biological mode of action of metal-based compounds often involves interactions with target and/or transport molecules. The presence of reducing agents may also give rise to changes in the coordination sphere and/or the oxidation state. XAS and micro-SXRF are ideal techniques for investigating these issues. This tutorial review introduces the use of XAS and micro-SXRF techniques into the field of inorganic medicinal chemistry. The results obtained for platinum, ruthenium, gallium, gold and cobalt compounds within the last few years are presented.

Secondary vitellogenesis persists despite disrupted fecundity in amphipods maintained on metal-contaminated sediment: X-ray fluorescence assessment of oocyte metal content. ECOTOXICOLOGY AND ENVIRONMENTAL SAFETY 2013; 93:31-38. [PMID: 23631891 DOI: 10.1016/j.ecoenv.2013.03.028] [Citation(s) in RCA: 2] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.2] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 01/29/2013] [Revised: 03/25/2013] [Accepted: 03/26/2013] [Indexed: 06/02/2023]
Abstract
Melita plumulosa is an epibenthic, detritivorous amphipod found in estuaries along the eastern coast of Australia. It has been utilized as a test organism in rapid ten to thirteen days reproduction toxicity tests for sediment quality assessment. The fecundity of females in the toxicity test has been found to be inhibited by exposure of the amphipods to contaminated sediments enriched with zinc and other metals. This study investigated the proposal that interference in vitellogenesis is the cause of reproductive toxicity of metals in crustaceans. Inspection of the ovaries from amphipods on day 6 of the test either from control or Zn/Pb/Cd/Cu-spiked sediment, that were nearing completion of vitellogenesis, showed that the females in all treatments were producing similar numbers of oocytes undergoing secondary vitellogenesis. The distribution of the Zn, Cu and Pb in the oocytes and ventral caeca of females was examined by X-ray fluorescence microscopy. Elemental mapping revealed a dense accumulation of Zn in primary oocytes and a uniform distribution of Zn and Cu in the secondary oocytes in all treatments. Zn and Cu were also observed to be uniformly distributed in the ventral caeca. Pb was not detected in either of these tissues. The apparent normal morphology and the typical number of oocytes undergoing secondary vitellogenesis suggest that vitellogenesis was not being disrupted by Pb displacing Zn in the metal-binding domain of vitellogenin in amphipods exposed to the contaminated sediment during the test. Alternative mechanisms for the reproductive toxicity of amphipods exposed for six days to metal-contaminated sediment are discussed.
