Mass cytometry is a powerful technology that enables the measurement of >40 parameters at the single-cell level. The inherent spectral limitations of fluorescent flow cytometry are circumvented by the use of antibodies conjugated to metal isotope reporters, which are measured quantitatively using a CyTOF mass cytometer. The high dimensionality of mass cytometry is particularly useful for the analysis of cell signaling networks in complex biological samples. We describe here methods for cell preparation, antibody staining, data acquisition, and analysis of multidimensional data from a mass cytometry experiment.

Background: FcγRI, a pivotal cell surface receptor, is implicated in diverse immune responses and is ubiquitously expressed on numerous immune cells. However, its role in intracellular bacterial infections remains understudied.
Methods: Wild-type (WT) and FcγRI knockout (FcγRI-KO) mice were inoculated intranasally with a specific dose of C.

Variance in the properties of optical mesoscopic probes is often a limiting factor in applications. In the thermodynamic limit, the smaller the probe, the larger the relative variance. However, specific viral protein cages can assemble efficiently outside the bounds of statistical fluctuations at equilibrium through a process that is characterized by intrinsic quality-control and self-limiting capabilities.

Background: The neuroimmune response, characterised by the proliferation and activation of microglial cells, is a driver of Alzheimer's disease (AD). However, the extent of immune cell infiltration and interactions in the human AD brain are yet to be established in detail. While microglial cells are at the centre of this neuroimmune response, recent research has explored the possibility of peripheral immune cell involvement, typically focusing on T-cell infiltration.

Hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) is one of the leading causes of cancer-related death worldwide. However, the molecular mechanism underlying the occurrence and development of HCC remains unclear. We are interested in the function of m6A methylation enzyme WTAP in the occurrence and development of HCC.
