Rheumatoid arthritis (RA), known as "immortal cancer," is a chronic, progressive autoimmune inflammatory disease. The development and application of an RA high-sensitivity theranostics probe can help ...

Prokaryotic and eukaryotic cells exhibit an intrinsic natural fluorescence due to the presence of fluorescent cellular structural components and metabolites. Therefore, cellular autofluorescence (AF) ...

Oral cancer screening techniques have expanded beyond the conventional physical examination over the last several decades. The conventional oral cancer screening, with head and neck examination, ...

Most multiphoton microscopy studies to date use genetically engineered animals that express fluorescent proteins in cells of interest to detect and follow their fate in the tissue. Although very ...

Uveitis is a rare inflammatory eye disease. Posterior and panuveitis in particular are associated with a poor prognosis and a protracted course of the disease. Diagnosis and monitoring can be ...

Researchers headed by a team at the University of Wisconsin (UW)-Madison, and the Morgridge Institute for Research, have developed a novel label-free imaging technique that exploits autofluorescence ...

Researchers in Japan have made the first observations of biological magnetoreception—live, unaltered cells responding to a magnetic field in real time. This discovery is a crucial step in ...

Researchers at the University of California, Los Angeles (UCLA) have pioneered a groundbreaking approach in the imaging and detection of amyloid deposits in tissue samples. The innovative method ...

Colorectal cancer (CRC) is one of the most common and deadly forms of cancer worldwide. A key reason for its high death toll is that it often goes undetected until it reaches an advanced stage.

With the 2016 Nobel Prize in Physiology or Medicine awarded to Yoshinori Ohsumi for his pioneering work in the early 1990s elucidating the genetic basis of the autophagic “self-eating” process, this ...
