This list presents current publications in the major application fields for laser microdissection and is updated monthly.Read articleHow to improve your Biomarker Discovery Workflow with Laser Microdissection
Biomarkers can be used as indicators of certain diseases, such as cancer. The tumor microenvironment moved into the spotlight in this concern. It is in close interaction with the tumor itself.…Read articleNeurosurgery with Heads-up Display
In the following video interviews Prof. Dr. Raphael Guzman, Vice Chairman of the Department of Neurosurgery at the University Hospital in Basel, Switzerland, talks about his experience in heads-up…Read articleStudying Adipose Tissue Development and Expansion
This article discusses sharp, high-contrast imaging of whole mount adipose (fat) tissues specimens, which are thick and round (unsectioned), with a THUNDER Imager using Computational Clearing. Adipose…Read articleStudy synaptic dynamics with millisecond precision in neurobiology
What if you could dissect the synaptic dynamics with millisecond precision? To resolve controversial questions in neurobiology employing new techniques for visualizing cellular activity is essential.…Read articleEvaluating Axon Regeneration After Brain or Spine Trauma of Mice
Damaged nerve regeneration was investigated using mouse spinal cord sections treated with compounds that counter axon growth inhibitor (AGI) proteins. The sections were screened to find active and…Read articleGLOW800 Augmented Reality Fluorescence in Aneurysm Treatment
This case study from Prof. Dr. Feres Chaddad talks about the treatment of unruptured MCA (middle cerebral artery) and PCOM (posterior communicating artery) aneurysms with microsurgical clipping. It…Read articleCoherent Raman Scattering Microscopy Publication List
CRS (Coherent Raman Scattering) microscopy is an umbrella term for label-free methods that image biological structures by exploiting the characteristic, intrinsic vibrational contrast of their…Read articleCellular Motility: Microtubules, Motor Proteins and Tau-Proteins
Cellular motility is based on motor-proteins that can bind to filamentous scaffold proteins and – under consumption of ATP – can “crawl” on these filaments. This note is about proteins connected to…Read articleBridging Structure and Dynamics at the Nanoscale through Optogenetics and Electrical Stimulation
Nanoscale ultrastructural information is typically obtained by means of static imaging of a fixed and processed specimen. However, this is only a snapshot of one moment within a dynamic system in…Read articleHow to improve your RNA Analysis Workflow with Laser Microdissection
Brain research: Single neuron excision for RNA analysis - Improve your workflow with laser microdissection - Parkinson’s disease is a common progressive neurodegenerative disorder. It is connected…Read articleHow to improve your Alzheimer Protein Analysis with Laser Microdissection
Brain Research: Collect pure starting material for proteomics - Improve your workflow with Laser Microdissection - Many brain diseases result from protein malfunction, misfolding and agglutination.…Read articleResearchers Find a “Digital” Mechanism Behind Neuronal Changes from Learning
Neurons react to learning and memory by activating synaptic connections. The mechanisms behind this fundamental process are complex and poorly understood. Researchers at Thomas Jefferson University…Read articleInterview with Dr. Shigeki Watanabe on Research in Synaptic Membrane Dynamics
Dr. Shigeki Watanabe, principle investigator of the department of Cell Biology at the Johns Hopkins University School of Medicine in Baltimore, held a workshop in Zürich, Switzerland on methods to…Read articleBotulinum Neurotoxin Type-A Enters a Non-Recycling Pool of Synaptic Vesicles
Neuronal communication relies on synaptic vesicles undergoing regulated exocytosis and recycling for multiple rounds of fusion. Whether all synaptic vesicles have identical protein content has been…Read article
