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 ...

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 ...

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 ...

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 ...

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 ...

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 ...

They succeeded in 3D image reconstruction of minute morphology of dendritic trees on the computer using the advanced electron microscope technology. Consistent with this observation, they have ...

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 ...

Using sheets of light to scan cells, a new microscope can capture real-time 3D videos of what's happening inside cells down to the molecular level—feat once thought impossible. The inventors of ...

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 ...

Cells are the smallest units of life. But even within the same tissue or organ, they are not all identical. New variations arise continuously during cell proliferation. While genetic mutations alter ...
