Membrane contact site (MCS)-mediated organelle interactions play essential roles in the cell. Quantitative analysis of MCSs reveals vital clues for cellular responses under various physiological and pathological conditions. However, an efficient tool...
BACKGROUND: Synapses are the connections between neurons in the central nervous system (CNS) or between neurons and other excitable cells in the peripheral nervous system (PNS), where electrical or chemical signals rapidly travel through one cell to ...
In the last few years, electron microscopy has experienced a new methodological paradigm aimed to fix the bottlenecks and overcome the challenges of its analytical workflow. Machine learning and artificial intelligence are answering this call providi...
Volume electron microscopy is an important imaging modality in contemporary cell biology. Identification of intracellular structures is a laborious process limiting the effective use of this potentially powerful tool. We resolved this bottleneck with...
Mitochondria are extremely pleomorphic organelles. Automatically annotating each one accurately and precisely in any 2D or volume electron microscopy (EM) image is an unsolved computational challenge. Current deep learning-based approaches train mode...
Resolving the structural variability of proteins is often key to understanding the structure-function relationship of those macromolecular machines. Single particle analysis using Cryogenic electron microscopy (CryoEM), combined with machine learning...
Dense connective tissue, including the ligament, tendon, fascia and cornea, is formed by regularly arranged collagen fibres synthesized by fibroblasts (Fbs). The mechanism by which fibre orientation is determined remains unclear. Periodontal ligament...
BACKGROUND: Electron microscopy is important in the diagnosis of renal disease. For immune-mediated renal disease diagnosis, whether the electron-dense granule is present in the electron microscope image is of vital importance. Deep learning methods ...
Electron microscopy (EM) enables high-resolution imaging of tissues and cells based on 2D and 3D imaging techniques. Due to the laborious and time-consuming nature of manual segmentation of large-scale EM datasets, automated segmentation approaches a...
