BACKGROUND: Rheumatoid arthritis (RA) is an autoimmune rheumatic disease that carries a substantial burden for both patients and society. Early diagnosis of RA is essential to prevent disease progression and select an optimal therapeutic strategy. Ho...
Cardiac fibrosis is a pathological process characterized by excessive tissue deposition, matrix remodeling, and tissue stiffening, which eventually leads to organ failure. On a cellular level, the development of fibrosis is associated with the activa...
Simultaneous imaging of various facets of intact biological systems across multiple spatiotemporal scales is a long-standing goal in biology and medicine, for which progress is hindered by limits of conventional imaging modalities. Here we propose us...
Microridges are evolutionarily conserved actin-rich protrusions present on the apical surface of squamous epithelial cells. In zebrafish epidermal cells, microridges form self-evolving patterns due to the underlying actomyosin network dynamics. Howev...
Immunohistochemical (IHC) localisation of protein expression is a widely used tool in pathology. This is semi-quantitative and exhibits substantial intra- and inter-observer variability. Digital approaches based on stain quantification applied to IHC...
Filopodia are slender, actin-filled membrane projections used by various cell types for environment exploration. Analyzing filopodia often involves visualizing them using actin, filopodia tip or membrane markers. Due to the diversity of cell types th...
BACKGROUND: The coronavirus pandemic that started in 2019 has caused the highest mortality and morbidity rates worldwide. Data on the role of long non-coding RNAs (lncRNAs) in coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) is scarce. We aimed to elucidate the r...
The social amoeba Dictyostelium discoideum is a standard model system for studying cell motility and formation of biological patterns. D. discoideum cells form protrusions and migrate via cytoskeletal reorganization driven by coordinated waves of act...

Understanding the complexities of single-cell migration is facilitated by computational modeling, which provides important insights into the physiological processes that underlie migration mechanisms. This study developed a computational model for on...
Using deep learning-based image restoration, we achieved high-resolution 4D imaging with minimal photodamage, revealing distinct localization and suggesting Lifeact-RFP-labeled actin microfilaments play a role in initiating cell plate formation. Phra...
