Microscopy in 3D: a biologist's toolbox.

Abstract:

:The power of fluorescence microscopy to study cellular structures and macromolecular complexes spans a wide range of size scales, from studies of cell behavior and function in physiological 3D environments to understanding the molecular architecture of organelles. At each length scale, the challenge in 3D imaging is to extract the most spatial and temporal resolution possible while limiting photodamage/bleaching to living cells. Several advances in 3D fluorescence microscopy now offer higher resolution, improved speed, and reduced photobleaching relative to traditional point-scanning microscopy methods. We discuss a few specific microscopy modalities that we believe will be particularly advantageous in imaging cells and subcellular structures in physiologically relevant 3D environments.

  • p53: new roles in metabolism.

    abstract::Virtually all cancers show metabolic changes that result in upregulation of glycolysis and glucose consumption. Although discovered in the 1920s, how this glycolytic switch happens, and whether it is a cause or a consequence of the malignant process, has remained a matter of debate. The p53 tumor suppressor gene, disc...
