Quantitative analysis of myofiber type composition in human and mouse skeletal muscles

Skeletal muscles are composed of different myofiber types characterized by the expression of myosin heavy chain isoforms, which can be affected by physical activity, aging, and pathological conditions. Here, we present a step-by-step high-throughput semi-automated approach for performing myofiber type quantification of entire human or mouse...

Automated sub-5 nm image registration in integrated correlative fluorescence and electron microscopy using cathodoluminescence pointers

In the biological sciences, data from fluorescence and electron microscopy is correlated to allow fluorescence biomolecule identification within the cellular ultrastructure and/or ultrastructural analysis following live-cell imaging. High-accuracy (sub-100 nm) image overlay requires the addition of fiducial markers, which makes overlay accuracy...
