Atomic Force Microscopy and Ballistic Intracellular Nano-Rheology Provide New View of Cancer Cells

A team of student researchers and their professors from 20 laboratories around the country have gotten a new view of cancer cells. The work could shed light on the transforming physical properties of these cells as they metastasize, said Jack R. Staunton, a Ph.D. candidate at Arizona State University in the lab of Prof. Robert Ros, and the lead author of a paper reporting on the topic.

Transmission Electron Microscopy Helps Resolve Crystal Structure of Mineral Vaterite

By using state-of-the-art high-resolution transmission electron microscopy to examine crystals found in and on the bodies of small marine organisms called sea squirts, a team of scientists led by the Technion-Israel Institute of Technology has resolved the nearly 100 year-old mystery about the crystal structure of the mineral called vaterite. The findings are published in the current issue (April 26, 2013) of SCIENCE.

Partial Wave Spectroscopic Microscopy Helps Detect Early Presence of Ovarian Cancer

Pioneering biophotonics technology developed at Northwestern University is the first screening method to detect the early presence of ovarian cancer in humans by examining cells easily brushed from the neighboring cervix or uterus, not the ovaries themselves.

Multiple Microscopy Techniques Employed to Study How Cells Grow

While cells typically grow by expanding outward in all directions, many critical biological functions—including the development of root hairs in plants, budding in yeast, and the extension of axons in animal neurons—require cells to grow in a single direction. Though biologists have known for several decades which structures within the cell appear to participate in what is known as polarized growth, exactly how those components work together to achieve this complex function remains a mystery.
