A recent addition to the toolbox of super-resolution microscopy methods is fluorescence-lifetime single-molecule localization microscopy (FL-SMLM). The synergy of SMLM and fluorescence-lifetime imaging microscopy (FLIM) combines superior image resolution with lifetime information and can be realized using two complementary experimental approaches: confocal-laser scanning microscopy (CLSM) or wide-field microscopy. Here, we systematically and comprehensively compare these two novel FL-SMLM approaches in different spectral regions. For wide-field FL-SMLM, we use a commercial lifetime camera, and for CLSM-based FL-SMLM we employ a home-built system equipped with a rapid scan unit and a single-photon detector. We characterize the performances of the two systems in localizing single emitters in 3D by combining FL-SMLM with metal-induced energy transfer (MIET) for localization along the third dimension and in the lifetime-based multiplexed bioimaging using DNA-PAINT. Finally, we discuss advantages and disadvantages of wide-field and confocal FL-SMLM and provide practical advice on rational FL-SMLM experiment design.

Comparative analysis of the effect of self-assembling peptide P-4 on enamel erosion: a confocal laser scanning microscopy study.
Clin Oral Investig
December 2024
Department of Pedodontics, Faculty of Dentistry, Izmir Katip Celebi University, Izmir, Turkey.
Objectives: This study aims to comparatively assess the preventive and protective effects of the self-assembling peptide P-4 on enamel erosion and evaluate the potential for enamel surface recovery when professional products are combined with home-use dental-care products during the erosive process.
Materials And Methods: Ninety-nine bovine incisors were divided into nine groups: a control group, four groups with the application of professional-products [P-4 peptide (Curodont-Repair), stannous/Sn containing solution (8% Sn), casein-phosphopeptide-amorphous-calcium-phosphate fluoride/CPP-ACPF (MI Varnish), sodium fluoride/NaF (Profluorid)] and four groups with the combination of professional products and home-use daily dental care products [P-4 peptide (Curodont Repair + Curodont Protect), stannous ions containing agents (8% Sn+Emofluor Gel Intensive-Care), CPP-ACPF (MI Varnish + MI Paste Plus), NaF (Profluorid + ReminPro)]. Professional products were applied once before a five-day erosive cycle, involving six 2-minute citric-acid exposures per day.
Clinical confocal laser endomicroscopy for imaging of autofluorescence signals of human brain tumors and non-tumor brain.
J Cancer Res Clin Oncol
December 2024
Department of Neurosurgery, Faculty of Medicine and University Hospital Carl Gustav Carus, Technische Universität Dresden, Dresden, Germany.
Purpose: Analysis of autofluorescence holds promise for brain tumor delineation and diagnosis. Therefore, we investigated the potential of a commercial confocal laser scanning endomicroscopy (CLE) system for clinical imaging of brain tumors.
Methods: A clinical CLE system with fiber probe and 488 nm laser excitation was used to acquire images of tissue autofluorescence.
Preservation of wetting ridges using field-induced plasticity of magnetoactive elastomers.
J Colloid Interface Sci
December 2024
East Bavarian Centre for Intelligent Materials (EBACIM), Ostbayerische Technische Hochschule Regensburg, Seybothstr. 2, Regensburg, 93053, Germany.
Hypothesis: The presence of a wetting ridge is crucial for many wetting phenomena on soft substrates. Conventional experimental observations of a wetting ridge require permanent presence of a droplet. The magnetic field-induced plasticity effect (FIPE) of soft magnetoative elastomers (MAEs) allows one to overcome this limitation.

Biopolymer-based emulsion systems have been used for food preservation. In this study, mung bean protein (MBP) was added to konjac glucomannan (KGM)/curdlan-based camellia oil emulsion (KC-CO) to develop KCM-CO emulsion system. KCM-CO emulsions showed good compatibility and stability during storage.

The Lactate Shuttle concept has revolutionized our understanding and study of metabolism in physiology, biochemistry, metabolism, nutrition, and medicine. Seminal findings of the Mitochondrial Lactate Oxidation Complex (mLOC) elucidated the architectural structure of its components. Here, we report that the mitochondrial pyruvate carrier (mPC) is an additional member of the mLOC in mouse muscle and C2C12 myoblasts and myotubes.
