Abstract: Membrane fluidity is a crucial parameter for cellular physiology. Recent evidence suggests that it varies in cell types, states, and in diseases. As membrane fluidity is gradually becoming a new player in cell biology and biomedicine, it is essential to have reliable and quantitative ways to measure it in cells. In the last decade, there has been significant progress both in chemical probes and in imaging tools to make membrane fluidity measurements easier and more reliable. We have recently established a robust pipeline, using spectral imaging and new environment-sensitive probes, which has been successfully used for several studies. In this protocol, we will present the key points of the membrane fluidity measurement from labelling to imaging and image analysis. The protocol takes around 4 hours and it requires basic expertise in cell culture, wet lab and microscopy.
