Unlabeled image analysis-based cell viability assay with intracellular movement monitoring.
BioTechniques 2019 March
The need for technologies to monitor cell health is increasing with advancements in the field of cell therapy and regenerative medicine. In this study, we demonstrated unlabeled optical metabolic imaging of cultured living cells. This imaging technique is based on motion vector analysis with a block-matching algorithm to compare sequential time-lapse images. Motion vector analysis evaluates the movement of intracellular granules observed with a phase-contrast microscope. We demonstrated that the motion speed of intracellular movement reflects adenosine triphosphate (ATP)-dependent intracellular trafficking in cells. We also confirmed that intracellular motion speed is correlated with the ATP concentrations of the cells. This assay can measure cellular viability at a single-cell level without requiring any reagents.
