Choline is an essential nutrient for the biosynthesis of phospholipids and neurotransmitters and controls several physiological functions in mammals. It is metabolized in the organelles within cells, including mitochondria. However, its subcellular distribution and mode of mitochondrial transport remain poorly understood.

Human lens epithelial cells (hLECs) are critical for lens transparency, and their aberrant metabolic activity and gene expression can lead to cataract. Intracellular delivery to hLECs, especially to sub-cellular organelles (e.g.

The amino acid l-arginine (Arg) plays important roles in multiple metabolic and physiological processes, and changes in its concentration have been implicated in pathological processes. While it is important to measure Arg levels in biological systems directly and in real-time, existing Arg sensors respond to l-ornithine or l-lysine. Here we report ArgS1, a new Arg sensor.

Golgi apparatus (GA) and endoplasmic reticulum (ER) are two of the interesting subcellular organelles that are critical for protein synthesis, folding, processing, post-translational modifications, and secretion. Consequently, dysregulation in GA and ER and cross-talk between them are implicated in numerous diseases including cancer. As a result, simultaneous visualization of the GA and ER in cancer cells is extremely crucial for developing cancer therapeutics.

Alzheimer's disease (AD) is characterized by progressive neurodegeneration, marked by the accumulation of amyloid-β (Aβ) plaques and tau tangles. Emerging evidence suggests that mitochondrial dysfunction plays a pivotal role in AD pathogenesis, driven by impairments in mitochondrial quality control (MQC) mechanisms. MQC is crucial for maintaining mitochondrial integrity through processes such as proteostasis, mitochondrial dynamics, mitophagy, and precise communication with other subcellular organelles.
