Abstract

Zn(2+) plays essential roles in various physiological processes in living systems, and the investigation of Zn(2+) related physiology and pathology has attracted considerable interest. Because photoluminescence (PL) imaging possesses distinct advantages, such as high sensitivity and non-invasiveness, and excellent temporal and spatial resolution, it has become a powerful tool for the real time monitoring of Zn(2+) distribution, uptake, and trafficking. Over the last two decades, great efforts have been devoted to PL Zn(2+) imaging in living systems, which proved the Zn(2+) fluctuations in physiological processes and the temporal-spatial distribution of labile Zn(2+) as well as the localization of labile Zn(2+) pools. Advances in PL techniques, such as fluorescence microscopy, confocal fluorescence microscopy, two photon fluorescence microscopy, lifetime based techniques and luminescence optical imaging systems, have made remarkable contributions in tackling major challenges in Zn(2+) PL imaging. With the rational design and proper use of fluorescent sensors, Zn(2+) imaging in various cell lines, organelles, tissues, organs and living animals has been realized, which was shown to be crucial in elucidating the biological and phys...Continue Reading

COVID-19

Coronaviruses encompass a large family of viruses that cause the common cold as well as more serious diseases, such as the ongoing outbreak of coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19; formally known as 2019-nCoV). Coronaviruses can spread from animals to humans; symptoms include fever, cough, shortness of breath, and breathing difficulties; in more severe cases, infection can lead to death. This feed covers recent research on COVID-19.

Blastomycosis

Blastomycosis fungal infections spread through inhaling Blastomyces dermatitidis spores. Discover the latest research on blastomycosis fungal infections here.

Nuclear Pore Complex in ALS/FTD

Alterations in nucleocytoplasmic transport, controlled by the nuclear pore complex, may be involved in the pathomechanism underlying multiple neurodegenerative diseases including Amyotrophic Lateral Sclerosis and Frontotemporal Dementia. Here is the latest research on the nuclear pore complex in ALS and FTD.

Applications of Molecular Barcoding

The concept of molecular barcoding is that each original DNA or RNA molecule is attached to a unique sequence barcode. Sequence reads having different barcodes represent different original molecules, while sequence reads having the same barcode are results of PCR duplication from one original molecule. Discover the latest research on molecular barcoding here.
