Phase transitions by an abundant protein in the anammox extracellular matrix mediate cell-to-cell aggregation and biofilm formation by Seviour, Thomas, Wong, Lan Li, Lu, Yang, Mugunthan, Sudarsan, Yang, Qiaohui, Chanda Segaran, Uma Shankari, Bessarab, Irina, Liebl, David, Williams, Rohan B. H., Law, Yingyu, Kjelleberg, Staffan

“…The Brosi_A1236 structure was computationally predicted to consist of immunoglobulin-like anti-parallel β-strands, and circular dichroism conducted on the isolated surface protein indicated that β-strands are the dominant higher-order structure. The isolated protein was stained positively by the β-sheet-specific stain thioflavin T, along with cell surface- and matrix-associated regions of the biofilm. …”

Techniques for analysis and integration of histology data and agent-based modelling of T cell-tumour interactions by Stephens, R

“…Immunotherapies are increasingly being developed to target aspects of the immune system, such as CD8+ T cells, in order to boost its anti-tumour response. In clinical trials of such therapies, patients are monitored in several ways, often including core-needle biopsies in which a small piece of the tumour is removed, stained for specific cell markers, and imaged.…”
