Phagocytosis is series of steps where the pathogens and the immune cells interact during an invasion. This starts with the adhesion process between the host and pathogen cells, and is followed by the engulfment of the pathogens.

Label-fracture of cell surfaces by replica staining. [PDF]
We introduce replica-staining label-fracture, a method for the cytochemical mapping of membrane surfaces. This method is a corollary of the rationale of label-fracture (Pinto da Silva and Kan, 1984: J Cell Biol 99:1156). After freeze-fracture the exoplasmic halves of the membrane remain attached to the replica.

Whole-blood sorting, enrichment and in situ immunolabeling of cellular subsets using acoustic microstreaming [PDF]
Analyzing undiluted whole human blood is a challenge due to its complex composition of hematopoietic cellular populations, nucleic acids, metabolites, and proteins. We present a novel multi-functional microfluidic acoustic streaming platform that enables

Digital synthesis of histological stains using micro-structured and multiplexed virtual staining of label-free tissue [PDF]
AbstractHistological staining is a vital step in diagnosing various diseases and has been used for more than a century to provide contrast in tissue sections, rendering the tissue constituents visible for microscopic analysis by medical experts. However, this process is time consuming, labour intensive, expensive and destructive to the specimen ...

Visualization of positive and negative sense viral RNA for probing the mechanism of direct-acting antivirals against hepatitis C virus [PDF]
RNA viruses are highly successful pathogens and are the causative agents for many important diseases. To fully understand the replication of these viruses it is necessary to address the roles of both positive-strand RNA ((+)RNA) and negative-strand RNA ((

The structural organization and protein composition of lens fiber junctions. [PDF]
The structural organization and protein composition of lens fiber junctions isolated from adult bovine and calf lenses were studied using combined electron microscopy, immunolocalization with monoclonal and polyclonal anti-MIP and anti-MP70 (two putative

Immunofluorescence staining protocol for STED nanoscopy of Plasmodium-infected red blood cells.
Immunofluorescence staining is the key technique for visualizing organization of endogenous cellular structures in single cells. Labeling and imaging of blood stage Plasmodium falciparum has always been challenging since it is a small intracellular ...

Protective Effect of Blepharospasm on the Anterior Segment of the Eye
The aim of the study was to determine the role of blepharospasm as a protective factor for the anterior segment of the eye by comparing the degree of blepharospasm and changes of the anterior segment structures.

Expression of the neural cell adhesion molecule NCAM in endocrine cells [PDF]
We examined the expression of the neural cell adhesion molecule NCAM in a number of endocrine tissues of adult rat and in an endocrine tumor cell line. NCAM was found by immunoelectron microscopy to be present on the surface of all endocrine cells in the
