Abstract |
The phagosome is a redox-active organelle. Numerous reductive and oxidative systems play both direct and indirect roles in phagosomal function. With the advent of newer methodologies to study these redox events in live cells, the details of how redox conditions change within the maturing phagosome, how they are regulated, and how they influence other phagosomal functions can be investigated. In this chapter, we detail phagosome-specific, fluorescence-based assays that measure disulfide reduction and the production of reactive oxygen species in live phagocytes such as macrophages and dendritic cells, in real time. |
