Microscopy Meets Medicine: Spirulina-Derived Nanoparticles Take Aim at Cancer

Posted by , on 14 April 2025

This article from the International Journal of Nanomedicine presents a promising new biomimetic strategy that makes use of natural resources as an alternative in cancer therapy. The Researchers have created Spirulina-derived Nanoparticles (sNPs) using a solvent-free process and with the aid of centrifugation and sonication technique. The lysosomes sus-pended averaged an approximate size of 126nm,

Illuminating Cancer Metabolism: Unveiling Mitochondrial Secrets Through Fluorescence Microscopy

Posted by , on 23 March 2025

Understanding cancer metabolism is central to developing effective therapies, and a chief player in this complex scenario is mitochondrial metabolism. The studies of Monika Gooz and Eduardo N. Maldonado have shed light on how fluorescence microscopy is employed to investigate mitochondrial activity in cancer cells, thus posing avenues into the metabolic vulnerabilities that could be

What Happens When Light Meets Cell: Is It Stress, Signal, or Something More?

Posted by , on 30 December 2024

In the hub of cellular responses, how does a beam of light trigger a cascade of molecular changes in plant cells? This question solves the mystery of photostimulation-induced stress and signaling, especially at the critical contact points between the endoplasmic reticulum (ER) and chloroplasts. These dynamic cellular sites act as points for communication, resource exchange,
