A colorized transmission electron micrograph depicts cellular mitochondria with its characteristic internal folds called cristae. [Thomas Deerinck, National Center for Microscopy and Imaging ...

Using electron microscopy and artificial intelligence to unbiasedly identify only the dendritic mitochondria within the densely packed synaptic layer, Farris's team mapped mitochondrial structure ...

Transmission electron microscopy (TEM) is a high-resolution imaging technique used to visualise the internal ultrastructure of cells at the nanometer scale. By transmitting a beam of electrons through ...

Light microscopy is the only way in which we can look inside a living cell, or living tissues, in three dimensions. An electron microscope only gives a two-dimensional view, and the organic sample ...

“It’s a fundamental feature that allows different parts of the same neuron to function in distinct ways.” Taking their research a step further, the team used scanning electron microscopy and AI to ...

Electron cryo-microscopy sheds light on how bioenergy makers are made in our body Peer-Reviewed Publication Science For Life Laboratory ...

To study how the movement of mitochondria is related to motor neuron disease, Nguyen developed two mouse models in which the gene that makes Miro1 was knocked out. In one model, mice lacked Miro1 ...

Live mitochondria seen in unprecedented detail: Photobleaching in STED microscopy overcome Sequences of up to 1,000 sharp, super-resolved images of live mitochondria, the power generators of cells ...

To date, imaging methods applied to the task have included the use of fluorescence microscopy along with both transmission- and scanning electron microscopy, although these methods involve more ...
