A laser-based system that can create mesh-like structures in a dish that resemble the cytoskeletons of cells has been developed by two RIKEN researchers. They demonstrated its usefulness for research ...

Optical blur was artificially added to microscopic images of reticular and bundle cytoskeleton and the difference between the existing and proposed methods was assessed. In the right figure, the ...

A designer version of the tau protein, developed by a team led by UT Southwestern Medical Center researchers, maintains its biological function while resisting aggregation, a pathological trait linked ...
