超高分辨率荧光显微镜成像：2014诺贝尔化学奖的解析已经成熟建立起来的

超高分辨率荧光显微镜成像：2014诺贝尔化学奖的解析
已经成熟建立起来的超高分辨率荧光显微技术大致可分为3类：受激发射损耗技术及数种衍生方法。结构光照明技术和随机光学重构单分子技术。早在1989年William E. Moerner 就在世界上首次实现了超低温下单分子分光吸收的测量（1）并在1997年与Roger Y . Tsien(因绿色荧光蛋白获得2008年诺贝尔化学奖)合作发现了绿色荧光蛋白荧光的闪烁和切换行为。Eric Betzig 在1993年利用近场成像率先实现了常温下的单分子荧光观测，随后在1995年提出了基于单分子信号实现超高分辨率成像的思想。二者的早期研究都为日后超高分辨率成像技术的发展奠定了坚实的基础。
1994年，Stefan W. Hell 在芬兰图尔库大学最先提出了受激辐射损耗（stimulated emission depletion，STED ）理论，用来打破光学衍射极限，并最终于2000年在哥根廷大学得以真正实现。STED技术利用了类似与产生激光的“受激辐射”原理，将一束空心的光斑套在激发光光斑之外，这个环状激光覆盖的荧光分子会发生受激辐射，而环中心的荧光分子则发生自发辐射。因为波长不同，环中心的荧光可以被分开并单独检测。这样，通过增加环形光的强度来不断缩小环形光的孔径就可以获得一个小于衍射极限的荧光激发光斑，并通过扫描最终获得一幅超高分辨率的图像。STED技术，使其更加使用与生物研究。另外，他还通过相似原理发明了一系列的超高分辨率技术，统称为可逆饱和荧光跃迁（RESOLFT）,为超分辨率荧光显微成像技术的发展做出了巨大贡献。
2000年，美国科学家Mats Gustafsson开发了基于结构照明原理的超高分辨率技术（structured illumination microscopy，SIM），适用于快速的活细胞成像研究。SIM技术基于2个高空间频率团重叠可以形成低频率莫尔条纹的原理，通过对莫尔条纹的解析实现超高分辨率成像，可惜分辨率只达到了约100nm。
2006年，超分辨率荧光显微镜技术领域展开了一场科研竞赛，几乎同时出现了3种基于单分子定位随机重构原理的超分辨率光学成像技术：由哈佛大学的庄小威团队发明的随机光学重构显微技术（stochastic optical reconstruction microscopy，STORM）技术、这次的诺贝尔奖得主Betzig团队发明的光敏定位显微技术（photo-activated localization microscopy，PALM）以及缅因大学Samuel Hess发明的荧光活化定位显微技术（fluorescence photoactivation localization microscopy，fPALM）。它们在原理上非常相似，都是基于荧光分子（有机染料或是荧光蛋白）的光转化能力和单分子定位，通过对激活光的调制，因为对单个荧光分子中心的定位精度远远超过衍射极限，所以把同一区域的多张图片叠加就可重构出一幅超高分辨率图像。这种“以时间换空间”的巧妙方法把荧光成像的分辨率提高了20倍，达到10nm左右。
自荷兰科学见、显微镜创制者Antonie van Leeuwenhoek在17世纪第一次将光线通过透镜聚焦制成光学显微镜并用它观察微生物以来，显微镜就一直是生物学家从事研究工作、探寻生命奥秘必不可少的利器。而现代生物学研究迫切需要超高分辨率荧光显微技术，因为很多亚细胞结构都在微米到纳米尺度，衍射极限的存在限制了我们使用光学显微镜观察这些微结构和过程。超高分辨率荧光显微技术从方法实现到科学研究中大显身手虽然不过几十年时间，以对多个领域产生显著推动，并且可以预言在未来将给生命科学研究带来巨大的变化。
