The deep learning-based segmentation method, applied to confocal microscopy images of cortical microtubules in tobacco BY-2 cells, significantly improves density measurement accuracy compared to ...

In the 1950s, advances in microscopy techniques allowed scientists to visualize synaptic communication between two brain cells for the first time. 1,2 However, many details beyond the general synapse ...

Microscope image of a living human cancer cell in culture. Its actin cytoskeleton has been stained with fluorescently labelled phalloidin. Scientists delivered this toxic substance into the cell using ...

A research team at Kumamoto University has developed a deep learning-based method for analyzing the cytoskeleton—the structural framework inside cells—more accurately and efficiently than ever before.

As the second leading cause of death globally, cancer is a worldwide health crisis, particularly as life expectancies continue to increase. In its final stages, cancer spreads throughout the body in a ...

Prof. Michael Murrell's group (lead author Zachary Gao Sun, graduate student in physics) in collaboration with Prof. Garegin Papoian's group from the University of Maryland at College Park has found ...

A recent study published in Nature Chemistry introduces an artificial cytoskeleton designed to provide mechanical support and regulate membrane dynamics in synthetic cell platforms. This system ...
