We applied multicolor spectral karyotyping (SKY) to decipher the chromosomal complexity of a panel of seven cell lines and four primary tumors derived from patients with high-grade serous adenocarcinoma of the ovary. By this method we identified a total of 188 unbalanced translocations, nine reciprocal translocations [t(2;15)(q13;q23), t(7;17) (q32;q21), t(8;22)(p11;q11), t(8;22) (q24;q13), t(10;19) (q24;q13.2), t(11;19) (q13;p11), t(12;21)(q13;q22),t(18;20) (q?11;q?11), t(18;22)(q?11;q?13)], 6 isochromosomes [i(1q), i(7q), i(8q), i(9p), i(17q), i(21q)], and 23 deletions. By detailed mapping of rearrangement breakpoints, it was possible to identify several recurring breakpoint clusters at chromosomal bands 1p36, 2p11, 2p23, 3p21, 3q21, 4p11, 6q11, 8p11, 9q34, 10p11, 11p11, 11q13, 12p13, 12q13, 17q21, 18p11, 18q11, 20q11, and 21q22. Recurrent interstitial deletion of chromosomal bands 8p11, 11p11, and 12q13 and a recurrent unbalanced translocation--der(6)t(6;8)(q11;q11)-were also identified. In addition, a homogeneously staining region localized in one cell line to 11q13 was found using SKY to be derived from genetic material originating from chromosome 12. Subsequent comparative genomic hybridization (CGH) studies on this tumor revealed the amplification of DNA sequences derived from the short arm of chromosome 12 at the 12p11.2 region. These studies demonstrate the power of SKY, CGH, and G-banding to resolve the full spectrum of chromosomal rearrangements in serous ovarian adenocarcinoma.

Background And Objectives: Laser skin therapy and intense pulsed light (IPL) therapy are both light-based treatments used for various skin concerns. They have been used since decades and each system have their own specificity, advantages, and drawbacks. However specific treatment is still not accessible with standard techniques due to difficulties having a source with both laser and IPL advantages.

Multicolor emission and dynamic color tuning with large spectral range are challenging to realize but critically important in many areas of technology and daily life, such as general lighting, display, multicolor detection and multi-band communication. Herein, we report an excitation-power-dependent color-tuning emission from an individual Sn-doped CdS nanowire with a large spectral range and continuous color tuning. Its photoluminescence (PL) spectrum shows a broad trap-state emission band out of Sn dopants, which is superposed by whispering-gallery (WG) microcavity due to the nanostructure size and its structure, besides the CdS band-edge emission.

Spectroscopic single-molecule localization microscopy (SMLM) has revolutionized the visualization and analysis of molecular structures and dynamics at the nanoscale level. The technique of combining high spatial resolution of SMLM with spectral information, enables multicolor super-resolution imaging and provides insights into the local chemical environment of individual molecules. However, spectroscopic SMLM faces significant challenges, including limited spectral resolution and compromised localization precision because of signal splitting and the difficulties in analyzing complex, multidimensional datasets, that limit its application in studying intricate biological systems and materials.
