Movie 2

Monitoring intra-phagosomal Ca2+ changes in mouse bone marrow derived macrophage from Trpm2-/-. Cellular and intra-phagosomal Ca2+ and phagosomal acidification were monitored in BMDMФs from Trpm2-/- mouse with method as described in Supplemental Video 1. Green fluorescence increases (reflecting intra-phagosomal Ca2+ accumulation) in phagosomes labeled with pHrodo (red). The merged video shows the strong yellow color in phagsosomes due to the combined effect of both acidification and Ca2+ accumulation.
