In both 2D and 3D cultures, the FRET efficiency of VinTS is 5-6% lower than that of VinTL (p < 0.05), a tail-less control which cannot bind actin or paxillin. The difference between VinTS and VinTL FRET efficiency can be mitigated by treatment with the Rho-associated kinase inhibitor Y-27632, demonstrating that VinTS is under tension in both 2D and 3D cultures. However, there is an overall decrease in FRET efficiency of both VinTS and VinTL in the 3D multicellular aggregates compared with the 2D monolayers. Expression of VinTS in 2D and 3D cultures exhibits puncta consistent with cellular adhesions. While paxillin is present at the sites of VinTS expression in the 2D monolayers, it is generally absent from VinTS puncta in the 3D aggregates. The results suggest that VinTS experiences a modified environment in 3D aggregates compared with 2D monolayers and provide a basis for further investigation of molecular tension sensors in 3D tissue models.","PeriodicalId":8969,"journal":{"name":"Biomedical optics express","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":3.4,"publicationDate":"2024-08-13","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142247641","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"医学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

However, the reconstruction challenge due to low light absorption and high scattering in tissues makes it a difficult inverse problem. In this study, the online dictionary learning (ODL) method, combined with iterative reduction FISTA (IR-FISTA), has been utilized to achieve high-quality reconstruction. Our method integrates IR-FISTA for efficient and accurate sparse coding, followed by an online stochastic approximation for dictionary updates, effectively capturing the sparse features inherent to the problem. Additionally, a re-sparse step is introduced to enhance the sparsity of the solution, making it better suited for CB-XLCT reconstruction. Numerical simulations and in vivo experiments were conducted to assess the performance of the method. The SODL-IR-FISTA achieved the smallest location error of 0.325 mm in in vivo experiments, which is 58% and 45% of the IVTCG-L 1 (0.562 mm) and OMP-L 0 (0.721 mm), respectively. Additionally, it has the highest DICE similarity coefficient, which is 0.748. The results demonstrate that our approach outperforms traditional methods in terms of localization precision, shape restoration, robustness, and practicality in live subjects.","PeriodicalId":8969,"journal":{"name":"Biomedical optics express","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":3.4,"publicationDate":"2024-08-12","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142247642","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"医学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Identifying these abnormal lymphocytes is crucial for disease diagnosis. Currently, reactive lymphocytes are mainly manually identified by pathological experts with microscopes and morphological knowledge, which is time-consuming and laborious. Some studies have used convolutional neural networks (CNNs) to identify peripheral blood leukocytes, but there are limitations in the small receptive field of the model. Our model introduces a transformer based on CNN, expands the receptive field of the model, and enables it to extract global features more efficiently. We also enhance the generalization ability of the model through virtual adversarial training (VAT) without changing the parameters of the model. Finally, our model achieves an overall accuracy of 93.66% on the test set, and the accuracy of reactive lymphocytes also reaches 88.03%.

However, the optical characteristics of ocular defocus are not fully understood. To bridge this knowledge gap, we simulated polychromatic retinal image quality by considering both the monochromatic wavefront aberrations and chromatic aberrations of the eye, both in the fovea and the periphery (nasal visual field). Our study revealed two main findings: (1) chromatic and monochromatic aberrations interact to provide a signal to the retina (chromatic optical anisotropy) to discern positive from negative defocus and (2) that chromatic optical anisotropy exhibited notable differences among refractive error groups (myopes, emmetropes and hyperopes). These findings could enhance our understanding of the underlying mechanisms of defocus detection and their subsequent implications for myopia control therapies. Further research is needed to explore the retinal architecture's ability to utilize the optical signals identified in this study.","PeriodicalId":8969,"journal":{"name":"Biomedical optics express","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":3.4,"publicationDate":"2024-08-08","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142247787","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"医学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Dynamic optical coherence tomography (OCT) was employed for real-time, non-invasive imaging of these spheroids longitudinally over 12 days under PFOA exposures up to 500 µM. Despite no significant changes in volume or asphericity of spheroids, morphological alterations were observed in OCT images of spheroids at 100 µM on Day 12 and from Day 4 at 500 µM. Intracellular motility was assessed by the inverse-power-law exponent of the speckle fluctuation spectrum (α), and an autocorrelation-based motility amplitude (M). Linear regression indicated that both PFOA concentration and culture time are highly significant predictors for both α and M (p < 0.001 for all). Both PFOA concentration and culture time have positive associations with α and negative association with M, where increased α indicates suppression of higher frequency fluctuations (∼> 2 Hz) relative to those at lower frequencies, and decreased M indicates overall suppression of intracellular motility. This study can lead to the future development of biomarkers for per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances (PFAS) exposure using dynamic OCT and its associated toolkit of quantitative metrics.","PeriodicalId":8969,"journal":{"name":"Biomedical optics express","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":3.4,"publicationDate":"2024-08-08","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142268108","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"医学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
