The development of novel fluorogenic probes and their use in live-cell imaging lead to a plethora of discoveries in biological research. Herein I report on novel red fluorogenic probes for live-cell super-resolution microscopy of various cellular organelle ...
Worldwide, tuberculosis (TB) is the leading cause of death due to a single infectious agent, claiming 1.6 million human lives and causing >10 million new cases in 2017 alone, mostly in low-income regions. The intracellular pathogen Mycobacterium tuberculos ...
Molecular imaging allows noninvasive visualization of biological processes in their native environment within living systems. It can give a better understanding of fundamental biology, help in identifying disease mechanisms and visualizing pathological tis ...
Molecular imaging advances our understanding of cellular and molecular functions within complex biological systems. The development of novel imaging probes that can be applied to answer fundamental biological questions, diagnose and monitor disease progres ...
Purpose: Most effective antitumor therapies induce tumor cell death. Non-invasive, rapid and accurate quantitative imaging of cell death is essential for monitoring early response to antitumor therapies. To facilitate this, we previously developed a biocom ...
Targeting dormant Mycobacterium tuberculosis represents a challenge to antituberculosis drug discovery programs. We previously reported and validated the use of the streptomycin (STR)-dependent M. tuberculosis 18b strain as a tool for assessing drug potenc ...
Studying biological processes on the level of live cells with the help of biocompatible reac-tions has tremendously advanced our understanding of basic biology. However, the great complexity of many human pathologies such as cancer, diabetes and neurodegen ...
in vivo bioluminescence imaging (BLi) is an optical molecular imaging technique used to visualize molecular and cellular processes in health and diseases and to follow the fate of cells with high sensitivity using luciferase-based gene reporters. The high ...
Inorganic nanomaterials able to generate reactive oxygen species (ROS) are promising components for modern medical applications. Activated by near-infrared light, up-converting beta-NaYF4 doped with Er3+ - Yb3+ and Tm3+- Yb3+ pair ions nanoparticles (UCNPs ...
The standard cameras are designed to truthfully mimic the human eye and the visual system. In recent years, commercially available cameras are becoming more complex, and offer higher image resolutions than ever before. However, the quality of conventional ...
