The visualization of cellular structures and components has become an invaluable tool in biological and medical sciences. Imaging subcellular compartments and single molecules within a cell has prompted the development of a wide range of sample preparation techniques as well as various microscope devices to obtain images with increased spatial resolution. Here, we present cryoFISH, a method for fluorescence in situ hybridization (FISH) on thin ( approximately 150 nm thick) cryosections from sucrose-embedded fixed cells or tissues. CryoFISH can be used in combination with immunodetection (IF) of other cellular components. The main advantages of cryoFISH and cryoIF over whole-cell labeling methods are increased spatial resolution with confocal microscopy, greater sensitivity of detection due to increased probe accessibility, and better image contrast. CryoFISH and cryoIF methods typically used on samples fixed in conditions that preserve ultrastructure, are compatible with the labeling of cells in their tissue context and are ideal for correlative studies that compare fluorescence with electron microscopy.

Repetitive sequences are recognized for their roles in plant genome organization and function. Mobile elements are notable repeatome sequences due to their intrinsic mutagenic potential, which is related to the origin of adaptive novelties. Understanding the genomic organization and dynamics of the repeatome is fundamental to enlighten their role in plant genome evolution.

Objective: The authors explored differentially expressed circRNAs in Acute Ischemic Stroke (AIS) and revealed the role and potential downstream molecular mechanisms of circLOC375190.
Methods: circLOC375190 expression was modulated by lentiviral injection in the brain of transient Middle Cerebral Artery Occlusion (tMCAO) mice. Neurological dysfunction was assessed, as well as infarction size, histopathological changes, and neuronal apoptosis in tMCAO mice.

Because the interactions among contaminants may lead to enhanced toxicity, combined pollution caused by the co-presence of multiple contaminants has increasingly gained public concern. p-Nitrophenol (PNP) and 1,2-dichloroethane (1,2-DCA) are frequently co-detected in groundwater. To completely eliminate PNP, 1,2-DCA and intermediates from polluted sites, in this study, a novel degrader KTU-PDG was created by functional assembly of PNP and 1,2-DCA biodegradation pathways in a robust chassis Pseudomonas putida KT2440.

Background: Closed head injury (CHI) provokes a prominent neuroinflammation that may lead to long-term health consequences. Microglia plays pivotal and complex roles in neuroinflammation-mediated neuronal insult and repair following CHI. We previously reported that induced neural stem cells (iNSCs) can block the effects of CXCL12/CXCR4 signaling on NF-κB activation in activated microglia by CXCR4 overexpression.
