A growing appreciation of the importance of cellular metabolism and revelations concerning the extent of cell-cell heterogeneity demand metabolic characterization of individual cells. We present SpaceM, an open-source method for in situ single-cell metabolomics that detects >100 metabolites fr...
BRCA1 mutations are a hallmark of hereditary ovarian cancer, strongly linked to deficiencies in homologous recombination (HR) DNA repair and impaired DNA replication fork protection. However, its roles in cancer progression beyond maintaining genomic integrity remain poorly understood. Through me...
BACKGROUND: Ischemia/reperfusion injury (IRI) is the leading cause of acute kidney injury (AKI). The current standard of care focuses on supporting kidney function, stating the need for more efficient and targeted therapies to enhance repair. Mesenchymal Stromal Cells (MSCs) and ...
Adoptive T cell receptor (TCR)–based immunotherapy offers a powerful strategy to target solid tumors. However, the physical properties of the antigen-presenting interface regulate T cell metabolic programming remains poorly defined. Here we develop synthetic viscoelastic activating cells (SynVAC)...
Single-cell metabolomics reveals cell heterogeneity and elucidates intracellular molecular mechanisms. However, general concentration measurement of metabolites can only provide a static delineation of metabolomics, lacking the metabolic activity information of biological pathways. Herein, we dev...
