Spotiflow: accurate and efficient spot detection for fluorescence microscopy with deep stereographic flow regression

Joachim Lingner, Suliana Manley, Gioele La Manno, Can Aztekin, Irina Khven, Eftychia Kyriacou, Albert Dominguez Mantes, Evangelia Skoufa, Martin Weigert, Georgios Tsissios

Identification of spot-like structures in large, noisy microscopy images is a crucial step for many life-science applications. Imaging-based spatial transcriptomics (iST), in particular, relies on the precise detection of millions of transcripts in low sig ...

Clinically compliant cryopreservation of differentiated retinal pigment epithelial cells

Gioele La Manno, Alex Russell Lederer, Cheng Zhao

Background aims: Age-related macular degeneration (AMD) is the most common cause of blindness in elderly patients within developed countries, affecting more than 190 million worldwide. In AMD, the retinal pigment epithelial (RPE) cell layer progressively d ...

Applying single-cell and single-nucleus genomics to studies of cellular heterogeneity and cell fate transitions in the nervous system

Gioele La Manno

Single-cell and single-nucleus genomic approaches can provide unbiased and multimodal insights. Here, we discuss what constitutes a molecular cell atlas and how to leverage single-cell omics data to generate hypotheses and gain insights into cell transitio ...

Statistical inference with a manifold-constrained RNA velocity model uncovers cell cycle speed modulations

Felix Naef, Gioele La Manno, Alex Russell Lederer, Irina Khven, Antonio Herrera Camacho, Albert Dominguez Mantes, Colas Noé Droin, Lorenzo Talamanca

Across biological systems, cells undergo coordinated changes in gene expression, resulting in transcriptome dynamics that unfold within a low-dimensional manifold. While low-dimensional dynamics can be extracted using RNA velocity, these algorithms can be ...

The lipotype hypothesis

Giovanni D'Angelo, Gioele La Manno

Giovanni D'Angelo and Gioele La Manno present the concept of lipotypes, and suggest that lipid composition is an important regulator of cell fate. ...

The Key Players of CNS function: Exploring the Effects of Region, Age, and Sex on Human Glia Diversity

Gioele La Manno, Zahra Moslehi

Brain matters: unveiling the distinct contributions of region, age, and sex to glia diversity and CNS function

Gioele La Manno, Zahra Moslehi, Nina-Lydia Kazakou

The myelinated white matter tracts of the central nervous system (CNS) are essential for fast transmission of electrical impulses and are often differentially affected in human neurodegenerative diseases across CNS region, age and sex. We hypothesize that ...

BMC2023

Heterogeneity and developmental dynamics of mammalian neocortical progenitors

Gioele La Manno, Antonio Herrera Camacho, Leila Haj Abdullah Alieh

The central nervous system develops from a pool of neural progenitors which, depending on their location and time of division, generate cells committed to differentiate into specific kinds of neurons or glia. In the last decades, the developmental neurobio ...

Sphingolipids control dermal fibroblast heterogeneity

Giovanni D'Angelo, Gioele La Manno, Olivier Burri, Romain Guiet, Sylvia Ho, Alex Russell Lederer, Laura Capolupo, Irina Khven, Galina Glousker

Human cells produce thousands of lipids that change during cell differentiation and can vary across individual cells of the same type. However, we are only starting to characterize the function of these cell-to-cell differences in lipid composition. Here, ...
