they grew into adult dendritic cells in mice within days. Using a two-photon microscope and other biochemical tests, Liu and her collaborators Gabriel Victora and Tanja Schwickert were able to ...

Follicular dendritic cell sarcomas are described as indolent, which means they grow slowly. The only way to make a definite diagnosis is to take some cells from the lump (a biopsy) to look at under a ...

Plasmacytoid dendritic cells (pDCs) are a subset of dendritic cells. They resemble plasma cells when viewed under a microscope and are distinct from conventional dendritic cells in terms of their ...

Even be taught by neuroscientists to reliably recognize parts of brain cells ... microscopes can now autonomously and efficiently identify small neuronal compartments called dendritic spines ...

Morphological features such as size, shape and density of dendritic spines have ... with this protocol is to microinject cells, image using a confocal microscope and then photoconvert the dye ...

Generally, when you put a brain under a microscope, you've had to cut slices off ... and the little blobs above and below it are individual dendritic spines, or outgrowths, of the cell. The top image ...

A new instrument lets researchers use multiple laser beams and a microscope to trap and ... they brought multiple live T cells into contact with a dendritic cell to initiate the formation of ...

Now, researchers at the University of Zurich (UZH) have devised a method that allows them to track live under the microscope how cells develop and how cellular heterogeneity arises over several ...

Colin Salter's new book Science is Beautiful: The Human Body Under the Microscope features a scanning ... research and for other viewers. A dendritic cell looks like a pale pink peony in ...

Combining a serum-free medium with a xeno-free serum replacement creates a reliable system for generating functional dendritic cells and macrophages. Myeloid cells such as dendritic cells and ...

The fiberscope can image blood vessels, capillaries, blood cell movements, and dendrites, though its depth penetration and resolution cannot yet match that of the fixed two-photon microscope ... lie ...

A math student with what appeared to be a bright future in computers, he peeked one day through the lens of a microscope invented in the lab where he worked. The dazzlingly detailed pictures of living ...
