Abstract
Intravital microscopy is an invaluable tool to study in real time the dynamic behavior of leukocytes in vivo. We describe herein a simple protocol for time-lapse imaging of tissue-resident macrophages in intact kidney, liver, and spleen in live mice. This method can be used in any commercially available inverted confocal microscope, doesn't require expensive lasers or optics, exhibits minimal organ perturbation, photo bleaching, or phototoxicity, and, hence, it enables the study of tissue-resident macrophages in situ and in vivo under steady state and inflammation.
