Scanning electron microscopy images of cultured macrophages. Macrophages with MafB (WT) look mature and well-shaped, while those without MafB (KO) appear round and less developped.

Researchers developed and validated a label-free, non-invasive method combining AFM with deep learning for accurate profiling of human macrophage mechanophenotypes and rapid identification of their ...

Electron microscopy is a powerful technique that provides high-resolution images by focusing a beam of electrons to reveal fine structural details in biological and material specimens. 2 Because ...

Scientists have developed a new imaging technique that uses a novel contrast mechanism in bioimaging to merge the strengths of two powerful microscopy methods, allowing researchers to see both the ...

Macrophages—or “big eaters”—are exactly what they sound like. These immune cells roam our bodies hunting down infections, cancers, or injuries. When they detect a target, the cells release a calvary ...

Macrophages drive key immune processes including inflammation, tissue repair, and tumorigenesis via distinct polarization states whose accurate identification is vital for diagnosis and immunotherapy.
