Live-cell imaging is a powerful tool for the investigation of different steps of the life and fate of single cells and cell populations. In this chapter, we describe how to perform live-cell imaging in tissue culture cells and the subsequent image analysis to precisely characterize the cytological events occurring during mitotic exit and nuclear reformation.

We designed a new cyanide sensing probe by one-step synthesis and evaluated it using UV-vis and fluorescent techniques. The active moiety of (Z)-3-(4-(methylthio) phenyl)-2-(4-nitrophenyl) acrylonitrile (NCS) demonstrated fluorescence. The probe NCS showed turn-off fluorescence in the presence of cyanide (CN¯), which has a higher selectivity and sensitivity than other anions.

Background: Spatial-temporal control of mRNA translation in dendrites is important for synaptic plasticity. In response to pre-synaptic stimuli, local mRNA translation can be rapidly triggered near stimulated synapses to supply the necessary proteins for synapse maturation or elimination, and 3' untranslated regions (UTRs) are responsible for proper localization of mRNAs in dendrites. Although is a robust technique for analyzing RNA localization in fixed neurons, live-cell imaging of RNA dynamics remains challenging.

Background: We evaluated comprehension and application of the 2015 neuromyelitis optica spectrum disorder (NMOSD) criteria core elements by neurologists in Latin America (LATAM) who routinely diagnose and care for NMOSD patients by (i) identifying typical/suggestive NMOSD syndromes, (ii) detecting typical MRI NMOSD lesions and meeting MRI dissemination in space (DIS) criteria, and (iii) evaluating historical symptoms suggestive of NMOSD.
Methods: We conducted an anonymous, voluntary, self-administered web- and case-based survey cross-sectional study from October 2023 to January 2024 of neurologists identified through the LACTRIMS database. Questions were presented first through iterative clinical cases or imaging, followed by questions directly evaluating comprehension of definitions.

Glycosylation patterns represent an important signature of cancer cells that can be decoded by glycan-binding proteins, i.e., lectins.

We present novel fluorescent cholesteryl probes (CNDs) with a modular design based on the solvatochromic 1,8-phthalimide scaffold. We have explored how different modules-linkers and head groups-affect the ability of these probes to integrate into lipid membranes and how they distribute intracellularly in mouse astrocytes and fibroblasts targeting lysosomes and lipid droplets. Each compound was assessed for its solvatochromic behavior in organic solvents and model membranes.
