Figure 1 Schematic setup of the evanescent-field microscope. The objective, the dichroic mirror, the emission filter, and the tube lens are components of the regular inverted microscope. See text for details. Biophysical Journal 1999 76, 2262-2271DOI: (10.1016/S0006-3495(99)77382-0) Copyright © 1999 The Biophysical Society Terms and Conditions

Figure 2 Depth calibration of the evanescent field. (A) In vitro calibration. A plano-convex lens was placed on the coverslip curved side down. Green fluorescent beads (280nm diameter) were suspended in PBS containing 15% BSA. One hundred microliters of the suspension was placed at the contact region of the coverslip and lens (22mm diameter, 40mm focal length) so that beads were adsorbed to the surfaces of both. (B and C) Fluorescence intensity (arbitrary units) against vertical distance, for two beads. One touched the coverslip (left profile) while the other was held at some distance, presumably because it had bound to the lens surface. Lines show a Gaussian fitted to the top 60% of each curve. The distance between the two peaks of the Gaussian curves corresponds to the distance between the centers of the beads and hence to the distance of the remote bead from the coverslip. The fluorescence intensity is the average in a circle of 300nm superimposed on the brightest region of the image of each bead. (B) With epifluorescence. (C) With evanescent-field illumination. (D) Experiment as in A, with beads adsorbed both to coverslips and to the top surfaces of four PC-12 cells. (E and F) Analogous to B and C. Fluorescence intensity was plotted against vertical focal distance for three granules viewed with epifluorescence (E) or evanescent field excitation (F). The leftmost granule was located in a region not covered by a cell, as verified in the interference reflection contrast image (not shown). Hence it had adsorbed to the coverslip. (G) Fluorescence intensity ratios (Fx/F0) of beads as a function of their distance from beads adsorbed to the coverslip. Fluorescence values are the maxima of the fitted Gaussians and represent values obtained for each bead at the vertical position where it is brightest. Open circles from B and C: The exponential function declines e-fold in 185nm (dashed curve). Filled circles from E and F: The exponential declines e-fold in 646nm (continuous curve). (H) Fluorescence intensity normalized as in G, but measured at the fixed focal plane where beads adsorbed to the coverslip appear brightest. Open circles from B and C: the regression line (dashed curve) intercepts the abscissa at 274nm. Filled circles from E and F: these were approximated by two regression lines (continuous curve) as follows. For Δz<450nm, F=1−(1/555nm)×Δz; for Δz>450nm, F=0.363−(1/2588nm)×Δz. F is the fluorescence ratio, and Δz is the vertical coordinate as defined in A. The two continuous curves were used later to calculate changes in the vertical position of chromaffin granules from their changes in fluorescence.

Figure 3 Chromaffin cell with three imaging methods. (A) Brightfield image. (B) Epifluorescence image. (C) Evanescent-field image at the same focal position as in B.

Figure 4 Granules in a chromaffin cell move little. (A) First image in a stack of 200 taken at 33-ms intervals. (B) Average of the entire stack. (A and B) Unfiltered (left) and high-pass filtered (right) images. For filtering, blurred versions of images on the left were first generated by low-pass filtering at a spatial frequency of 1μm (see Materials and Methods). Subtraction of the blurred from the original images yielded the images on the right. (C) A single granule was magnified. Its first, second, and later images in the stack are shown. Calibration bars: 2μm in A and B and 1μm in C. Biophysical Journal 1999 76, 2262-2271DOI: (10.1016/S0006-3495(99)77382-0) Copyright © 1999 The Biophysical Society Terms and Conditions

Figure 5 Rapid and random motions of a single granule. (A) Coordinates of a chromaffin granule against time (same granule as in C). (B) Mean square displacement (MSD) plotted against time interval Δt. To calculate the MSD we measured the distance moved over an interval of fixed duration, say 0.5s, with the interval starting first at 0ms after the beginning of the recording, then at 33ms, then 66ms, and so on until (6.700–0.5) s. All distances were squared. The average of all squared distances represents the MSD at 0.5s. ●, Same granule as in A. ♢, Similar recordings from an immobilized bead (280nm diameter) imaged at a signal-to-noise ratio (S/N) similar to that of the granule in C. To estimate the S/N of a granule or bead, we measured in high-pass filtered images the average brightness within the binary mask used to determine the lateral position of the granule or bead (see Materials and Methods). The S/N ratio was the brightness divided by its standard deviation with time. It was 17.2 for the bead and 16.6 for the granule.

Figure 6 Motion of single granules from time-lapse recordings. Images were acquired every 2s, first under resting conditions (1min) and then for 2min at elevated [K+]. Each image was exposed for 110ms, and light during that time was integrated on the chip of the video camera. The x and y coordinates of 18 granules from three cells were tracked as in Fig. 5, first for 1min before and then for 1min during stimulation. MSD plots were calculated from them; the average of the 18 plots is shown (± standard error). Before (●) and during (○) stimulation. The lines represent diffusion coefficients of 1.88×10−4μm2/s in unstimulated cells (——) and 2.35×10−4μm2/s during stimulation (– – –). ♦, Immobilized bead recorded at 2-s intervals for 5min. Only three of seven cells examined were suitable for analysis. The others either detached, moved, or failed to perform sufficient exocytosis as they lost fewer than 20% of their granules within 2min at elevated [K+]. In the three cells a minority of 18 granules could be tracked for the entire duration of the experiment. The remainder either collided with other granules, were too dim, underwent exocytosis, or slowly faded away, presumably because they left the evanescent field.

Figure 7 Two modes of diffusion. ○, Average MSD±SE of 13 individual granule trajectories recorded at 30 frames/s. ●, Average MSD of 18 granule trajectories recorded at 0.5/s. Filled circles are from Fig. 6, but shifted upward by 21.6×10−4μm2 to make the two data sets coincide at Δt=2s (♦). A minor portion of this upward shift (6.3×10−4μm2) would compensate for the fact that the exposure was 110ms during time lapse and only 33ms in video recordings. In Fig. 7, the MSD at 110ms was 6.30×10−4μm2 larger than at 33ms. ——, Best least-squares fit of Eq. 4, with the data points weighted by the reciprocal of their variance. The fit parameters are given in the text. Biophysical Journal 1999 76, 2262-2271DOI: (10.1016/S0006-3495(99)77382-0) Copyright © 1999 The Biophysical Society Terms and Conditions

Figure 8 Granules approaching and leaving the plasma membrane. Granule positions were recorded in normal buffer after 2min in stimulation buffer plus 10μM nicotine. The stimulation buffer caused exocytosis that partially depleted the plasma membrane of granules. Under this experimental condition, new granules slowly appear as they approach the plasma membrane from the cytosol (Steyer et al., 1997). (A) Fluorescence intensity at the site of an appearing granule, both before (+) and after (●,○) the granule became visible. – – –: (Lower) Fluorescence background calculated as the average of the crosses. (Upper) Plateau value calculated from the average of all but the first five open circles. Open circles replace filled circles after the fluorescence of the granule had first exceeded 90% of its plateau value. The distance calibration on the right is approximate (see Fig. 2 H, continuous curve) and assumes that the granule had reached the plasma membrane when its brightness reached a plateau. The time interval between consecutive image frames was 2s. (B) Trajectory of the granule in the plane of the membrane. Coordinates were determined as in Fig. 4 and are plotted at 2-s intervals. (C) Vertical distance (z) from the plasma membrane, assuming the granule reached the plasma membrane when its brightness reached the plateau level. z was calculated from Fig. 2 H (defined by two continuous lines). The abscissa (r) represents the direction of the granules’ largest lateral displacement. – – –, Plateau level in A. For distance calibration see the bottom of D. (D) Vertical distance against r as in C, but on four other granules from different cells. Dashed lines were obtained as in C. (Upper) Two granules that underwent exocytosis during a second application of elevated [K+]. (Lower left) A granule that approached the plasma membrane from the left and left to the right. (Lower right) A granule leaving the plasma membrane after a period of continuous presence; the recording was made during a first period of stimulation. The calibration bar refers to all panels except A. Data acquisition with a slow-scan CCD camera (see Materials and Methods). We analyzed seven cells and found 23 granules showing strong changes in fluorescence, indicating vertical movement. For our vertical calibration to be applied, the granule must be docked to the plasma membrane at one time and be absent at another. We believe this was true for seven granules. Some underwent exocytosis. Others appeared at the plasma membrane and then docked, as judged by an increase in fluorescence followed by a plateau, and two granules docked and then detached, as suggested by a plateau in fluorescence followed by a decrease. We required that the plateau period contained at least 60s, where the rms fluctuations in fluorescence remained at<10% of the intensity change caused by the appearing or departing granule. Of the seven granules, one was not plotted because it approached the plasma membrane within a single sampling interval, and another was not because it was visible from the beginning and did not approach the membrane from a distance sufficient to define the angle of approach.
