Automated quantitative live cell fluorescence microscopy.
Advances in microscopy automation and image analysis have given biologists the tools to attempt large scale systems-level experiments on biological systems using microscope image readout. Fluorescence microscopy has become a standard tool for assaying gene function in RNAi knockdown screens and protein localization studies in eukaryotic systems. Similar high throughput studies can be attempted ...
متن کاملSingle-cell mass spectrometry reveals small molecules that affect cell fates in the 16-cell embryo.
Spatial and temporal changes in molecular expression are essential to embryonic development, and their characterization is critical to understand mechanisms by which cells acquire different phenotypes. Although technological advances have made it possible to quantify expression of large molecules during embryogenesis, little information is available on metabolites, the ultimate indicator of phy...
متن کاملDevelopment of a reliable automated screening system to identify small molecules and biologics that promote human β-cell regeneration.
Numerous compounds stimulate rodent β-cell proliferation; however, translating these findings to human β-cells remains a challenge. To examine human β-cell proliferation in response to such compounds, we developed a medium-throughput in vitro method of quantifying adult human β-cell proliferation markers. This method is based on high-content imaging of dispersed islet cells seeded in 384-well p...
متن کاملMolecules That Affect Megakaryocyte Development
RESEARCH QUESTION Research into megakaryocyte activity has picked up in recent years, largely due to the introduction of more refined methods of studying these large multinucleated cells. More studies are being conducted on various molecules that may interact with and control megakaryocyte development, and subsequently their end-product, the platelets. The enzyme acetylcholinesterase (AchE) has...
متن کاملAutomated microscopy for high-content RNAi screening
Fluorescence microscopy is one of the most powerful tools to investigate complex cellular processes such as cell division, cell motility, or intracellular trafficking. The availability of RNA interference (RNAi) technology and automated microscopy has opened the possibility to perform cellular imaging in functional genomics and other large-scale applications. Although imaging often dramatically...
