BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVE: Accurate detection of vessel bifurcation points from mesoscopic whole-brain images plays an important role in reconstructing cerebrovascular networks and understanding the pathogenesis of brain diseases. Existing detection m...
Bhas 42 cell transformation assay (CTA) has been used to estimate the carcinogenic potential of chemicals by exposing Bhas 42 cells to carcinogenic stimuli to form colonies, referred to as transformed foci, on the confluent monolayer. Transformed foc...
Recent studies have revealed great functional and structural heterogeneity in the ribbon-type synapses at the basolateral pole of the isopotential inner hair cell (IHC). This feature is believed to be critical for audition over a wide dynamic range, ...
Confocal microscopy remains a major workhorse in biomedical optical microscopy owing to its reliability and flexibility in imaging various samples, but suffers from substantial point spread function anisotropy, diffraction-limited resolution, depth-d...
Alterations of discoidin domain receptor1 (DDR1) may lead to increased production of inflammatory cytokines, making DDR1 an attractive target for inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) therapy. A scaffold-based molecular design workflow was established and...
Counting cells in fluorescent microscopy is a tedious, time-consuming task that researchers have to accomplish to assess the effects of different experimental conditions on biological structures of interest. Although such objects are generally easy t...
BACKGROUND: Wide-field calcium imaging (WFCI) allows for monitoring of cortex-wide neural dynamics in mice. When applied to the study of sleep, WFCI data are manually scored into the sleep states of wakefulness, non-REM (NREM) and REM by use of adjun...
Recent single-cell multimodal data reveal multi-scale characteristics of single cells, such as transcriptomics, morphology, and electrophysiology. However, integrating and analyzing such multimodal data to deeper understand functional genomics and ge...
Macrophages play an important role in the adaptive immune system. Their ability to neutralize cellular targets through Fc receptor-mediated phagocytosis has relied upon immunotherapy that has become of particular interest for the treatment of cancer ...
The purpose of this study was to develop an automatic deep learning-based approach and corresponding free, open-source software to perform segmentation of the Schlemm's canal (SC) lumen in optical coherence tomography (OCT) scans of living mouse eyes...
