Skeletal muscle microvascular endothelial cells (SMECs) play an essential role in maintaining muscle function, metabolism, and overall health. These specialized cells line the blood vessels within skeletal muscles, forming a barrier that regulates the exchange of substances between the bloodstream and muscle tissue. Their significance extends beyond mere structural support; they actively ...
Highlights Deterministic barcoding in tissue enables NGS-based spatial multi-omics mapping DBiT-seq identified spatial patterning of major tissue types in mouse embryos Revealed retinal pigmented epithelium and microvascular endothelium at cellular level Direct integration with scRNA-seq data allows for rapid cell type identification Summary We present ...
Neoplasia is the abnormal growth and proliferation of abnormal cells or abnormal amounts of cells due to a benign or malignant process. There can be benign tumors, or neoplasms, and malignant ones. Remember that it's the malignant tumors, or cancer, that can metastasize, which is when cancer spreads around the body. Leukemia is used for lymphoid neoplasms presenting with widespread involvement ...
We show how microfluidics technology can be used to fabricate simple and innovative biomimetic tools to shed new light on physiopathological events occurring in the blood microcirculation. Examples of applications are given in the context of the acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS), an inflammatory disease of the lung triggered by a massive arrest of white blood cells in the lung ...
