The articular cartilage of four fresh osteochondral allografts was biopsied after transplantation, and its viability was studied by autoradiography. The biopsy specimens were labeled with both 3H-cytidine, for newly synthesized ribonucleic acid, and 35S-sulphate, for newly synthesized proteoglycans. The cartilage of a lateral humeral condylar graft at twelve months had 96 to 99 per cent labeled chondrocytes, the articular cartilage of a medial femoral condylar graft at twenty-four months showed 69 to 78 per cent labeled chondrocytes, and the cartilage of a medial tibial-plateau graft at forty-one months had 90 per cent labeled cells. At six years, a lateral tibial-plateau graft had 37 per cent labeled chondrocytes.

Late-Stage Minimal Labeling of Peptides and Proteins for Real-Time Imaging of Cellular Trafficking.
ACS Cent Sci
January 2025
Centre for Inflammation Research, The University of Edinburgh, EH16 4UU Edinburgh, U.K.
The cellular uptake routes of peptides and proteins are complex and diverse, often handicapping therapeutic success. Understanding their mechanisms of internalization requires chemical derivatization with approaches that are compatible with wash-free and real-time imaging. In this work, we developed a new late-stage labeling strategy for unprotected peptides and proteins, which retains their biological activity while enabling live-cell imaging of uptake and intracellular trafficking.

Significance: Nicotine-containing products, labelled as being 'tobacco-free' nicotine (TFN), are marketed to consumers as alternatives to conventional tobacco products. Little is known about these emerging products and their contents.
Methods: Moisture, total nicotine and pH content were analysed in 70 commercially available TFN products, covering five different types (lozenges, chewing gum, loose leaf, toothpicks and pouches).
Gentle Rhodamines for Live-Cell Fluorescence Microscopy.

Rhodamines have been continuously optimized in brightness, biocompatibility, and color to fulfill the demands of modern bioimaging. However, the problem of phototoxicity caused by the excited fluorophore under long-term illumination has been largely neglected, hampering their use in time-lapse imaging. Here we introduce cyclooctatetraene (COT) conjugated rhodamines that span the visible spectrum and exhibit significantly reduced phototoxicity.

Fluorogenic probes that unmask fluorescence signals in response to bioorthogonal reactions are a powerful new addition to biological imaging. They can significantly reduce background fluorescence and minimize nonspecific signals, potentially enabling real-time, high-contrast imaging without the need to wash out excess fluorophores. While diverse classes of highly refined synthetic fluorophores are now readily available, integrating them into a bioorthogonal fluorogenic scheme still requires extensive design efforts and customized structural alterations to optimize quenching mechanisms for each specific fluorophore scaffold.
