## Abstract To understand the molecular basis of nervous system function in the leech, __Hirudo medicinalis__, we have isolated four novel cDNAs encoding putative voltageβgated sodium (Na) channel Ξ± subunits, and have analyzed the expression of these genes in individual neurons of known function.

## Abstract Quantitative and sensitive imaging of chemiluminescence, bioluminescence and fluorescence emissions is emerging as an increasingly important technique for a range of biomedical applications (Hooper __et al__., 1990). A brief review of lowβlightβlevel imaging is presented, with particula
## Recent advances in reporter gene technologies are now allowing us to image gene transcription at the single cell level, using either fluorescence or luminescence microscopy. Here, the basis of these techniques is outlined and their advantages and disadvantages in various biological systems are
