Biological neural networks are well known for their capacity to process information with extremely low power consumption. Fields such as Artificial Intelligence, with high computational costs, are seeking for alternatives inspired in biological syste...
Huntington's disease (HD) is a complex neurodegenerative disorder with considerable heterogeneity in clinical manifestations. While CAG repeat length is a known predictor of disease severity, this heterogeneity suggests the involvement of additional ...
The nuclear envelope can form complex structures in physiological and pathological contexts. Current approaches to quantify nuclear envelope structures can be time-consuming or inaccurate. Here, we present a protocol to measure nuclear envelope tubul...
Astrocytes are glycolytically active cells in the central nervous system playing a crucial role in various brain processes from homeostasis to neurotransmission. Astrocytes possess a complex branched morphology, frequently examined by fluorescent mic...
Osteogenic differentiation of mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) is proposed to be critical for bone tissue engineering and regenerative medicine. However, the current approach for evaluating osteogenic differentiation mainly involves immunohistochemical ...
The multipotent stem cells of our body have been largely harnessed in biotherapeutics. However, as they are derived from multiple anatomical sources, from different tissues, human mesenchymal stem cells (hMSCs) are a heterogeneous population showing ...
INTRODUCTION: The last decade has led to rapid developments and increased usage of computational tools at the single-cell level. However, our knowledge remains limited in how extracellular cues alter quantitative macrophage morphology and how such mo...
BACKGROUND: Cell senescence is a sign of aging and plays a significant role in the pathogenesis of age-related disorders. For cell therapy, senescence may compromise the quality and efficacy of cells, posing potential safety risks. Mesenchymal stem c...
