Live lung imaging has spanned the discovery of capillaries in the frog lung by
Malpighi to the current use of single and multiphoton imaging of intravital and
isolated perfused lung preparations incorporating fluorescent molecular probes
and transgenic reporter mice. Along the way, much has been learned about the
unique microcirculation of the lung, including immune cell migration and the
mechanisms by which cells at the alveolar-capillary interface communicate with
each other. In this review, we highlight live lung imaging techniques as applied
to the role of mitochondria in lung immunity, mechanisms of signal transduction
in lung compartments, studies on the composition of alveolar wall liquid, and
neutrophil and platelet trafficking in the lung under homeostatic and
inflammatory conditions. New applications of live lung imaging and the
limitations of current techniques are discussed.
