Article Abstract
We demonstrate a significant resolution enhancement beyond the conventional limit in multiphoton microscopy (MPM) using saturated excitation of fluorescence. Our technique achieves super-resolved imaging by temporally modulating the excitation laser-intensity and demodulating the higher harmonics from the saturated fluorescence signal. The improvement of the lateral and axial resolutions is measured on a sample of fluorescent microspheres. While the third harmonic already provides an enhanced resolution, we show that a further improvement can be obtained with an appropriate linear combination of the demodulated harmonics. Finally, we present in vitro imaging of fluorescent microspheres incorporated in HeLa cells to show that this technique performs well in biological samples.

Brillouin microscopy allows mechanical investigations of biological materials at the subcellular level and can be integrated with Raman spectroscopy for simultaneous chemical mapping, thus enabling a more comprehensive interpretation of biomechanics. The present study investigates different in vitro glioblastoma models using a combination of Brillouin and Raman microspectroscopy. Spheroids of the U87-MG cell line and two patient-derived cell lines as well as patient-derived organoids were used.

Background: Juxtaglomerular cells are sensors that control blood pressure and fluid-electrolyte homeostasis. They are arranged as clusters at the tip of each afferent arteriole. In response to decreased blood pressure or extracellular fluid volume, juxtaglomerular cells secrete renin, initiating an enzymatic cascade that culminates in the production of Ang II (angiotensin II), a potent vasoconstrictor that restores blood pressure and fluid-electrolyte homeostasis.

Purpose: Hirschsprung's disease (HSCR) is an intestinal disorder characterized by the absence of nerve cells in parts of the intestinal tract. The definitive diagnosis is confirmed by a full-thickness rectal biopsy to verify the absence of ganglion cells. However, incomplete removal often causes post-operative complications.

Endocytosis is a critical cellular process involved in many physiological functions, including mechanotransduction. Recent advancements in intravital imaging have led to in vivo analysis of endocytosis, and these tools can now be translated to study the highly mechanosensitive bone tissue. Here, we present a live-cell study of endocytosis in osteocytes, mechanosensory cells embedded in mouse bone.
