Abstract

Activation of G protein-coupled receptors upon chemoattractant stimulation induces activation of multiple signaling pathways. To fully understand how these signaling pathway coordinates to achieve directional migration of neutrophils, it is essential to determine the dynamics of the spatiotemporal activation profile of signaling components at the level of single living cells. Here, we describe a detailed methodology for monitoring and quantitatively analyzing the spatiotemporal dynamics of 1,4,5-inositol trisphosphate (IP3) in neutrophil-like HL60 cells in response to various chemoattractant fields by applying Förster resonance energy transfer (FRET) fluorescence microscopy.
