Intravital pH Imaging using the sensor ApHID Reveals Incomplete Lysosomal Acidification in Resident Meningeal Phagocytes.

Tracking lysosomes and quantifying their pH in the living, intact brain has been challenging owing to the lack of suitable in vivo tools. Here we report the use of dextran polymers labeled with the pH sensor ApHID to visualize and quantify lysosomal pH in mouse brain resident phagocytes. ApHID-dextrans delivered systemically are rapidly endocytosed by phagocytes in the meninges -mainly dural and…
