Current optical microscope objectives of low magnification have low numerical aperture and therefore have too little depth resolution and discrimination to perform well in confocal...
To search for virulence effector genes of the rice blast fungus, Magnaporthe oryzae, we carried out a large-scale targeted disruption of genes for 78 putative...
Cell polarization is essential in a wide range of biological processes such as morphogenesis, asymmetric division, and directed migration. In this study, we show that...
ABSTRACTGold nanorods (NRs) with tunable plasmon‐resonant absorption in the near‐infrared region have considerable advantages over organic fluorophores as imaging agents due to their brightness and...
BACKGROUND AND AIMS: Bowel function requires coordinated activity of diverse enteric neuron subtypes. Our aim was to define gene expression in these neuron subtypes to...
A central question related to virtually all social decisions is how animals integrate sex-specific cues from conspecifics. Using microendoscopic calcium imaging in mice, we find...
Fluorescent imaging coupled with high-resolution femto-second pulsed infrared lasers allows for interrogation of cellular interactions deeper in living tissues than ever imagined. Intra-vital imaging of...
AbstractThe study of proteins in dendritic processes within the living brain is mainly hampered by the diffraction limit of light. STED microscopy is so far...
This study presents the isolation, characterization, and kinetic analyses of cellulose nanocrystals (CNCs) from date palm waste in the United Arab Emirates. After bleaching date...
The ability to help and care for others fosters social cohesiveness and is vital to the physical and emotional well-being of social species, including humans1-3....
