Intravital in vivo imaging and Fluorescence recovery after photobleaching (FRAP) to monitor E-cadherin dynamics. (A) Example of an optical window chamber containing a tumor implanted on the back of a CD-1 nude mouse. Inset: confocal image of GFP-E-cadherin expressing tumor cells acquired using optical window chambers, a major blood vessel is outlined. Scale bar 50 μm. (B) A representative FRAP recovery curve after photobleaching of a region of GFP-E-cadherin at the plasma membrane in vivo.
