Mechanobiology explores how forces regulate cell behaviors and what molecular machinery are responsible for the sensing, transduction, and modulation of mechanical cues. To this end, probing of cells cultured on planar substrates has served as a prim...
Across the cell cycle, the subcellular organization undergoes major spatiotemporal changes that could in principle contain biological features that could potentially represent cell cycle phase. We applied convolutional neural network-based classifier...
Catechins in green tea possess various health benefits. Enzymatic treatment improves physiological activities by inducing bioconversion of catechins. Here, we investigated the effect of green tea infusion (GT) after tannase treatment, which transform...

Untethered mini-robots can move single cells or aggregates to build complex constructs in confined spaces and may enable various biomedical applications such as regenerative repair in medicine and biosensing in bioengineering. However, a significant ...
Image-based deep learning systems, such as convolutional neural networks (CNNs), have recently been applied to cell classification, producing impressive results; however, application of CNNs has been confined to classification of the current cell sta...
Transferrin receptor (TfR) is overexpressed on the surface of many cancer cells due to its vital roles in iron circulation and cellular respiration. Soluble transferrin receptor (sTfR), a truncated extracellular form of TfR in serum, is an important ...
