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. ...

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 ...

Interference of engineered nanomaterials in flow cytometry: A case study

Aurélie Walter

Nanotechnology is regarded as the enabling technology of the 21st century. However, only a relatively small number of nano-enabled medical and healthcare products finally made their way to the market. There are several reasons why such innovative approache ...

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 ...

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 ...

Live Intracellular Super-Resolution Imaging Using Site-Specific Stains

Suliana Manley, Lina Carlini

Point localization super-resolution imaging (SR) requires dyes that can cycle between fluorescent and dark states, in order for their molecular positions to be localized and create a reconstructed image. Dyes should also densely decorate biological feature ...

Dynamic measurement of the height and volume of migrating cells by a novel fluorescence microscopy technique

Jean-Jacques Meister, Alexander Verkhovskiy, Chiara Gabella, Benoît Vianay, Lara Buscemi Estefanell

We propose a new technique to measure the volume of adherent migrating cells. The method is based on a negative staining where a fluorescent, non-cell-permeant dye is added to the extracellular medium. The specimen is observed with a conventional fluoresce ...

Identification and Functional Response of "Interstitial Cells of Cajal"-like Cells from Rat Mesenteric Artery

Aurélie Formey de Saint Louvent

This thesis is a contribution to the field of interstitial cells of Cajal-like cells (ICC-LCs) in the vasculature. Indeed, cells with irregular shapes and numerous long thin filaments, morphologically similar to the gastrointestinal ICCs, have been observe ...

Amine- and carboxyl-quantum dots affect membrane integrity of bacterium Cupriavidus metallidurans CH34

Vera Slaveykova-Startcheva

The present study examines the interaction of amine- and carboxyl- PEG core/shell quantum dots (QDs) with metal resistant bacterium Cupriavidus metallidurans CH34. The evolution of the number of QDs, their hydrodynamic radius, diffusion coefficients and si ...
