Protocol for live imaging of intracellular nanoscale structures using atomic force microscopy with nanoneedle probes

Marcos Penedo Garcia

Atomic force microscopy (AFM) is capable of nanoscale imaging but has so far only been used on cell surfaces when applied to a living cell. Here, we describe a step-by-step protocol for nanoendoscopy-AFM, which enables the imaging of nanoscale structures i ...

Stain-free identification of cell nuclei using tomographic phase microscopy in flow cytometry

Demetri Psaltis, Joowon Lim

The accurate identification of the three-dimensional quantitative shape of a cell nucleus is now possible without fluorescent staining by applying computational segmentation to refractive index tomograms recorded in the flow cytometry mode. ...

Deep Learning Enables Individual Xenograft Cell Classification in Histological Images by Analysis of Contextual Features

Michaël Unser, Cathrin Brisken, Daniel Sage, Olivier Burri, Martin Weigert, Fabio De Martino

Patient-Derived Xenografts (PDXs) are the preclinical models which best recapitulate inter- and intra-patient complexity of human breast malignancies, and are also emerging as useful tools to study the normal breast epithelium. However, data analysis gener ...

Dual-Activatable Cell Tracker for Controlled and Prolonged Single-Cell Labeling

Pablo Rivera Fuentes, Salome Riccarda Püntener

Cell trackers are fluorescent chemical tools that facilitate imaging and tracking cells within live organisms. Despite their versatility, these dyes lack specificity, tend to leak outside of the cell, and stain neighboring cells. Here, we report a dual-act ...

Using flow cytometry and light-induced fluorescence to characterize the variability and characteristics of bioaerosols in springtime in Metro Atlanta, Georgia

Athanasios Nenes

The abundance and speciation of primary biological aerosol particles (PBAP) is important for understanding their impacts on human health, cloud formation, and ecosystems. Towards this, we have developed a protocol for quantifying PBAP collected from large ...

Digital staining through the application of deep neural networks to multi-modal multi-photon microscopy

Demetri Psaltis, Navid Borhani

Deep neural networks have been used to map multi-modal, multi-photon microscopy measurements of a label-free tissue sample to its corresponding histologically stained brightfield microscope colour image. It is shown that the extra structural and functional ...

High-content, cell-by-cell assessment of HER2 overexpression and amplification: a tool for intratumoral heterogeneity detection in breast cancer

Martinus Adela Maria Gijs, Daniel Migliozzi, Huu Tuan Nguyen

Immunohistochemistry and fluorescence in situ hybridization are the two standard methods for human epidermal growth factor receptor 2 (HER2) assessment. However, they have severe limitations to assess quantitatively intratumoral heterogeneity (ITH) when mu ...

Microfluidic-based immunohistochemistry for breast cancer diagnosis: a comparative clinical study

Martinus Adela Maria Gijs, Diego Gabriel Dupouy, Saska Brajkovic, Fabio Aimi

Breast cancer is a highly heterogeneous disease. The efficacy of tailored therapeutic strategies relies on the precise detection of diagnostic biomarkers by immunohistochemistry (IHC). Therefore, considering the increasing incidence of breast cancer cases, ...

Efficient decellularization of equine tendon with preserved biomechanical properties and cytocompatibility for human tendon surgery indications

Dominique Pioletti, Lee Ann Laurent-Applegate, Nathalie Hirt-Burri, Jens Antons, Anthony Grognuz, Pierre-Arnaud Aeberhard

Chronic and acute tendon injuries are frequent afflictions, for which treatment is often long and unsatisfactory. When facing extended injuries, matrices and scaffolds with sufficient biomechanical properties are required for surgical repair and could addi ...

A Cell Atlas for the Mouse Brain

Henry Markram, Daniel Keller, Marc-Oliver Gewaltig

Despite vast numbers of studies of stained cells in the mouse brain, no current brain atlas provides region-by-region neuron counts. In fact, neuron numbers are only available for about 4% of brain of regions and estimates often vary by as much as 3-fold. ...

Depth-dependent mechanical properties of human articular cartilage obtained by indentation measurements

Pierre-Etienne Bourban, Lee Ann Laurent-Applegate, Matteo Gregorio Modesto Marascio, Robin Martin, Jens Antons

Emerging 3D printing technology permits innovative approaches to manufacture cartilage scaffolds associated with layer-by-layer mechanical property adaptation. However, information about gradients of mechanical properties in human articular cartilage is li ...

Influence of DNA Binding Dyes on Bare DNA Structure Studied with Atomic Force Microscopy

Giovanni Dietler, Aleksandr Benke, Aleksandre Japaridze

Fluorescent dyes are widely used for staining and visualization of DNA in optical microscopy based methods. Even though for some dyes the mechanism of binding is known, how this binding affects DNA remains poorly understood. Here we present a novel experim ...

SiR–Hoechst is a far-red DNA stain for live-cell nanoscopy

Kai Johnsson, Luc Reymond, Grazvydas Lukinavicius, Alberto Schena

Cell-permeable DNA stains are popular markers in live-cell imaging. Currently used DNA stains for live-cell imaging are either toxic, require illumination with blue light or are not compatible with super-resolution microscopy, thereby limiting their utilit ...

Inference about the number of contributors to a DNA mixture: Comparative analyses of a Bayesian network approach and the maximum allele count method

Kjell Konis

In the forensic examination of DNA mixtures, the question of how to set the total number of contributors (N) presents a topic of ongoing interest. Part of the discussion gravitates around issues of bias, in particular when assessments of the number of cont ...
