Recent development of FRET-PAINT microscopy significantly improved the imaging speed of DNA-PAINT, the previously reported super-resolution fluorescence microscopy with no photobleaching problem. Here we try to achieve the ultimate speed limit of FRET-PAINT by optimizing the camera speed, dissociation rate of DNA probes, and bleed-through of the donor signal to the acceptor channel, and further increase the imaging speed of FRET-PAINT by 8-fold. Super-resolution imaging of COS-7 microtubules shows that high-quality 40-nm resolution images can be obtained in just tens of seconds.

The introduction of light sheet fluorescence microscopy (LSFM) has overcome the challenges in conventional optical microscopy. Among the recent breakthroughs in fluorescence microscopy, LSFM had been proven to provide a high three-dimensional spatial resolution, high signal-to-noise ratio, fast imaging acquisition rate, and minuscule levels of phototoxic and photodamage effects. The aforementioned auspicious properties are crucial in the biomedical and clinical research fields, covering a broad range of applications: from the super-resolution imaging of intracellular dynamics in a single cell to the high spatiotemporal resolution imaging of developmental dynamics in an entirely large organism. In this review, we provided a systematic outline of the historical development of LSFM, detailed discussion on the variants and improvements of LSFM, and delineation on the most recent technological advancements of LSFM and its potential applications in single molecule/particle detection, single-molecule super-resolution imaging, imaging intracellular dynamics of a single cell, multicellular imaging: cell–cell and cell–matrix interactions, plant developmental biology, and brain imaging and developmental biology.

Here we describe a new method, named LS-SOFI, that combines light-sheet fluorescence microscopy and super-resolution optical fluctuation imaging to achieve fast nanoscale-resolution imaging over large fields of view in native 3D tissues. We demonstrate the use of LS-SOFI in super-resolution analysis of neuronal structures and synaptic proteins, including cortical axons, dendritic spines, pre- and postsynaptic cytoskeletal proteins and postsynaptic AMPA receptors, in thick mouse brain sections. We also introduce an algorithm to determine the number of active fluorophore emitters detected, allowing the localization of individual molecules in LS-SOFI images. We conclude that LS-SOFI is a versatile method for fast super-resolution imaging from any tissue of the body using both commercial and custom LSFM instruments.
