Particle fusion of super-resolution data reveals the unit structure of Nup96 in Nuclear Pore Complex

Single molecule localization microscopy offers resolution nearly down to the molecular level with specific molecular labelling, and is thereby a promising tool for structural biology. In practice, however, the actual value to this field is limited primarily by incomplete fluorescent labelling of the structure. This missing information can be...

Correction to: Scientific Reports, published online 16 August 2023 The original version of this Article contained an error in the upper inset of Figure 4, where the atomic model was missing. The original Figure 4 and accompanying legend appear below. (Figure presented.) Overlay of the fluorophore positions from the SMLM particle fusion data ...

Engineered Tumor Cell Apoptosis Monitoring Method Based on Dynamic Laser Tweezers

Monitoring the cells’ apoptosis progression could provide a valuable insight into the temporal events that initiate cell death as well as the potential for rescue of apoptotic cells. In this paper, we engineered a novel and robust method for monitoring apoptosis of tumor cells based on dynamic laser tweezers, using A549 and HeLa cell line as...

Photoacoustic imaging of human coronary atherosclerosis in two spectral bands

Spectroscopic intravascular photoacoustic imaging (sIVPA) has shown promise to detect and distinguish lipids in atherosclerotic plaques. sIVPA generally utilizes one of the two high absorption bands in the lipid absorption spectrum at 1.2 ?m and 1.7 ?m. Specific absorption signatures of various lipid compounds within the bands in either...

Spectroscopic intravascular photoacoustic imaging of lipids in atherosclerosis

The natural history of atherosclerosis is marked by changes in the lipid biochemistry in the diseased arterial wall. As lesions become more vulnerable, different cholesterol species accumulate in the plaque. Understanding unstable atherosclerosis as a pharmacological and interventional therapeutic target requires chemically specific imaging of...

Lipid detection in atherosclerotic human coronaries by spectroscopic intravascular photoacoustic imaging

The presence of lipids in atherosclerotic coronary lesions is an important determinant of their potential to trigger acute coronary events. Spectroscopic intravascular photoacoustic imaging (sIVPA) has the potential to automatically detect lipids in atherosclerotic lesions. For realtime in vivo imaging, limiting the number of excitation...
