Volume electron microscopy in axon regeneration research: insights into mitochondria, endoplasmic reticulum, and membrane contacts.

Frontiers in neural circuits 2026

Analysing organelle structures in tissue samples that preserve the in vivo environment, rather than in isolated cells, can provide valuable information on the mechanisms underlying...

Digging Deep into Alzheimer Disease: How Electron Microscopy Helps Elucidating Its Pathogenesis.

Cellular and molecular neurobiology 2026

Abstract Alzheimer disease (AD), first described by Alzheimer and Perusini in the early twentieth century, is a devastating neurodegenerative disorder without a definitive cure. Unraveling...

Ultrastructural analysis of bovine trophoblast giant cells during their migration by serial block-face scanning electron microscopy (SBF-SEM).

Placenta 2026

Bovine trophoblast giant cells (TGC) are continuously formed and migrate towards the uterine epithelium (ME) to fuse with ME cells. To date it is not...

Reviving formalin-fixed, paraffin embedded (FFPE) tissues for on-slide and multiscale correlative microscopy.

Scientific reports 2026

Correlative microscopy integrates complementary imaging modalities to enable structural analysis of biological samples across multiple length scales. Here, we present two correlative workflows for formalin-fixed,...

Streamlined correlative live-confocal and SBF-SEM imaging reveals early inflammatory dendritic changes induced by microglia.

Journal of neuroscience methods 2026

BACKGROUND: As cells that constantly survey their environment, microglia rely on contact with neurons, non-neuronal cells and extracellular substances. The diversity of microglial receptors allows...

Decoding Mitotic Chromosome Assembly: Three Rules Governing Condensin-Cohesin Engagement.

Research (Washington, D.C.) 2025

Mitotic chromosome formation depends on coordinated SMC complex activities, yet how condensin engages cohesin during this process remains unclear. Samejima etΒ al. combined synchronized mitotic entry,...

Serial block face scanning electron microscopy–the future of cell ultrastructure imaging.

Protoplasma 2014 πŸ“Š 89

One of the major drawbacks in transmission electron microscopy has been the production of three-dimensional views of cells and tissues. Currently, there is no one...

Mycobacterium tuberculosis replicates within necrotic human macrophages.

The Journal of cell biology 2017 πŸ“Š 134

Mycobacterium tuberculosis modulation of macrophage cell death is a well-documented phenomenon, but its role during bacterial replication is less characterized. In this study, we investigate...
