(2010). In all cases background, contrast and sharpness were adjusted and set the same in control and experimental conditions. Neurites from raw images (exemplified as heatmaps in Figure 4A) were straighten and divided into 10 m bins. The mean diffusion time and thus the size of the molecule can be calculated on the basis of an analysis of the G function. The difference of the temporal anisotropies r(t) for cancerous and normal prostate tissue shown in Fig.12.7(b) can be quantified by fitting experimental data, shown in Fig.12.6 and 12.7(a), using our analytic model. Size is not important. Dependence of vitrinite reflectance on coal rank (% carbon). Cell 157, 2640. No significant differences between DMSO- and A-treated cells were observed in the distribution of colocalized puncta along neurites (data not shown). This is usually followed by the measurement of the vitrinite reflectance, as the accepted indicator of coal rank. Make sure you have. Web0:00 / 4:59 FIJI (ImageJ): Quantification of 2D Images (Measuring Area, Intensity, etc.) After three PBS washes, cells were incubated for 1 hr at room temperature with fluorophore-conjugated secondary antibodies: anti-mouse Alexa Fluor 594 (1:200, A-11005, Invitrogen, Thermo Fisher Scientific), anti-rabbit Alexa Fluor 488 (1:200, A-21206, Invitrogen), anti-chicken DyLight 350 (1:200, SA5-10069, Invitrogen), anti-rabbit Alexa Fluor 647 (1:200, A-31573, Invitrogen) and anti-rabbit DyLight 405 (1:200, 611-146-002, Rockland Immunochemicals, Pottstown, PA, United States). A petrographic examination of a coal would normally involve first the optical microscopy of a polished surface with reflected white light to allow identification of vitrinite and inertinite group macerals, and by fluorescence to identify the liptinite group. JB was supported by two grants from the Spanish Ministry of Science, Innovation and Universities (RYC-2016-19837 start-up funds and SAF2016-76347-R) and start-up funds from the Basque Foundation for Science (IKERBASQUE). Neuronal dendrites measure around ten millimeters and axons can reach one meter of length in vertebrates (Bannister and Larkman, 1995b). WebI wanted to quantify the fluorescence intensity of the images taken by fluorescence Nevertheless, the low amount of locally produced proteins entails a limitation in the study of this phenomenon. Local translation of RhoA regulates growth cone collapse. But to give you a brief idea of what you need to do, you need to think of what "MFI (mean fluorescence intensity)" means. In conclusion the 5 5 Laplacian operator used in our approach can be successfully applied to highlight positive translation foci in distal neuritic sites. Check it out if you like. Static quenching is characterized by the formation of non-fluorescent complexes between the quencher and the fluorophore in its ground state. We quantified discrete puromycin-positive foci in distal neuritic sites in response to A142 with the particle analyzer after image processing with the convolver (assisted quantification). (F) The graph represents the frequency distribution of SYTO- and puromycin-positive objects (colocalization frequency) in DMSO- and A-treated neurites following 30-min puromycin exposure. (Unless you want to hire someone.). Holbrook et al. Despite local translation is finally being accepted by the scientific community, the accurate measurement of this phenomenon is still challenging partly due to the limited amount of proteins that are locally produced, especially in adult axons (Rangaraju et al., 2017). To verify that puromycin labels newly synthesized proteins, 40 M of the translation inhibitor anisomycin (Sigma Aldrich) was co-incubated with puromycin. Cambridge: MIT Press. Micrographs show colocalized objects (translating RNAs, cyan) detected within the last 120 m (distal) of Tau positive neurites (magenta). EMBO Rep. 19:e45435. We then quantified the number of discrete puromycin foci in binarized images. where kq is the quenching rate constant and [Q] is the concentration of the quenching species. If there are similar numbers of cells in each field of view across all your conditions, and they appear to be of similar sizes, then you can probably compare them directly. Cell metabolism can be tested this way! 3 and 4: calreticulin antibody incubation (Calr Ab) in DMSO- and A-treated neurons, respectively. What space do we need to measure? Altogether, this study provides a simple method of quantifying local RNA translation foci using object-recognition and object-based colocalization analyses which allows a better understanding the effect of A142 in neurites. In our system colocalized objects (cyan, Figure 5E) represent sites of actively translating RNAs. Data represent the average value of 510 sampled cells per condition shown as individual data points, and the mean and median of 5 independent experiments (n = 5). Calculate the mean fluorescence intensity value for each sample or condition. Rabbit immunoglobulin (IgG) was immobilized on a silicon nitride waveguide and the analyte molecule was Cy5 labeled antirabbit IgG. This prompt is whether to display all the picture results of the three files. Box and whisker graphs represent the average relative fluorescence intensity of 10 neurites per condition, shown as individual data points, and the mean and median of 5 (n = 5, SYTO negative samples compared to their corresponding + SYTO controls) or 6 (n = 6, + SYTO + DNAse and + SYTO + RNAse compared to their corresponding + SYTO controls) independent experiments. WebAbout Press Copyright Contact us Creators Advertise Developers Terms Privacy Policy & Samples processed for puromycin detection in Tau-positive neurites were incubated for 20 min with 500 nM SYTO RNASelect, a fluorescent dye that selectively binds RNA (Savas et al., 2010). Axonally synthesized ATF4 transmits a neurodegenerative signal across brain regions. Select the channel you want to measure the mean fluorescence intensity of. Number density function qc vs. fluorescence intensity - simulations are represented by solid lines (tshift = 7 h), experimental results are represented by dots, F. Lenci, N. Angelini, in Encyclopedia of Condensed Matter Physics, 2005. Since the first studies that unambiguously demonstrated the existence of local translation in neurons (Koenig, 1967; Giuditta et al., 1968; Steward and Levy, 1982; Torre and Steward, 1992; Feig and Lipton, 1993) most work in the field has focused on understanding the role of locally produced proteins in brain physiology. doi: 10.1016/j.neuron.2017.07.016, Wu, K. Y., Hengst, U., Cox, L. J., Macosko, E. Z., Jeromin, A., Urquhart, E. R., et al. EMBO J. Following the standard immunocytochemistry procedure, cells were incubated for 20 min at room temperature with SYTO RNASelect green fluorescent dye in PBS (500 nM, S-32703, Invitrogen). doi: 10.1073/pnas.59.4.1284, Graber, T.

Dynamic quenching of R6G: Lifetime of rhodamine 6G decreases with increasing iodide ion concentration. It was classically thought that proteins that support dendritic and axonal functions are synthesized in the soma and then transported to their target destination at peripheral sites of the neuron. (E) Puromycin-positive discrete foci were scored with the particle analyzer in 15 bins covering a distance of 150 m from the edge of the soma (Tau+ neurite) as explained in workflow B. Once the images were acquired, puromycin staining was filtered with the convolver applying the default normalized kernel and minimum and maximum intensities were adjusted (steps 1 and 2). When one would like to determine only the shape of the fluorescence spectrum, it is not necessary to dilute a solution so muchespecially in the case where a quantum efficiency of fluorescence is so low that the fluorescence is not clearly distinguished from Raman scattering. A typical experiment in which one might want to measure relative fluorescence intensity is shown here, where the effect of tumor cells on the expression of CD69 on resting NK cells and T cells from the same donor was investigated. Perhaps you will want to know the Max and Min values, so you can ensure that the camera's sensor wasn't saturated. As a negative control, immunostaining was performed on neurons that had not been treated with puromycin (-puro, Figure 2A). For analyzing fluorescence images, there are some really good guides online, such as these: https://theolb.readthedocs.io/en/latest/imaging/measuring-cell-fluorescence-using-imagej.html, https://www.unige.ch/medecine/bioimaging/files/1914/1208/6000/Quantification.pdf, https://confocal.uconn.edu/wp-content/uploads/sites/1081/2016/02/2014-05_Analyzing_fluorescence_microscopy_images.pdf, https://kpif.umbc.edu/image-processing-resources/imagej-fiji/determining-fluorescence-intensity-and-positive-signal/. doi: 10.15252/embr.201745435, Wong, H. H., Lin, J. Q., Strohl, F., Roque, C. G., Cioni, J. M., Cagnetta, R., et al. Correlation function observed for microspheres placed in different viscous solution. Finally, straighten neurites were smoothen and binarized again using the MaxEntropy mask (1 and 2; Figure 3C). Figure 2.2. The thin dashed and thin dotted line profiles display the parallel and perpendicular components, respectively. (b) SternVolmer plot showing the dependence of fluorescence lifetime upon the iodide concentration. Figure12.7(a) indicates that the emission intensity from Cybesin-stained cancerous tissue is higher than that from Cybesin-stained normal tissue throughout the lifetime of Cybesin emission. Acad. Under the condition in which the optical density is less than 0.07, fluorescence intensity is proportional to concentration, and thus it is quite convenient to compare several fluorescence spectra with one another. The latter technique is based on the ability of organic matter to absorb UV light and then emit (fluoresce) at longer wavelengths in the visible spectrum. Did you know? Threshold the nuclei and add either use the particle ****p < 0.0001; two-way ANOVA. Mean is a kind of average. I fully agree with Peter Nagy. I do not have much experience in using ImageJ, as I have usually used Matlab. Just briefly to illustrate why the 2. The RER is enriched in proteins involved in the folding of nascent polypeptides, being the Calnexin/Calreticulin system one the best known protein complexes (Rutkevich and Williams, 2011). Discrete puromycin puncta were visually scored in each bin covering a distance of 150 m from the center of the cell nucleus or from the edge of the soma (Figure 1; workflow A; step 4ii). (a) Schematic of the experimental setup, (b) cross-sectional view of the device, and (c) fluorescence intensity response of the device for FITC-tagged albumin. In 11, 10241030. The result is quantified in terms of the normalized autocorrelation function G(): where Ft=FtF. To calculate the total translation sites in the soma or in neurites or in any other desired interval disregarding the bin position, values retrieved from each bin of interest were summed up (Figure 1; workflow B; step 10). doi: 10.15252/embr.201744045, Rutkevich, L. A., and Williams, D. B. Thus, dysregulation of local protein synthesis might play a more relevant role in nervous system dysfunction than previously acknowledged. It can automatically identify individual cells stained by fluorescent membrane dyes, and measure fluorescence intensity, chain length, cell length, and cell diameter. Once associated to localized ribosomes, mRNAs are translated and proteins are synthesized independently from the soma and thus the endoplasmic reticulum (ER) (Jung et al., 2012). Mean puromycin intensity per bin, corresponding to protein levels, was measured and represented as the Log2 (mean puro intensity) vs. distance (step 4i). doi: 10.1038/nn.2580, Feig, S., and Lipton, P. (1993). Divide each samples signal by the mean of the respective samples signal. The Supplementary Material for this article can be found online at: https://www.frontiersin.org/articles/10.3389/fnins.2020.00547/full#supplementary-material. ****p < 0.0001; two-way ANOVA followed by Holm-Sidaks post hoc test. Thus, we chose to perform Spearman non-parametric correlation test to retrieve the correlation coefficients. Note: ImageJ may be freely downloaded from, Select the cell of interest using any of the drawing/selection tools (i.e. Scale bar, 10 m in images. WebYou should perform some kind of image segmentation, i.e. (2015). The development of specific antibodies has allowed the immunodetection of puromycilated polypeptides as a measure of protein synthesis. It is therefore important to know the extent and location of newly synthesized proteins in order to understand early changes in the AD brain. Fluorescence from the bound analyte was guided through the waveguide and finally coupled back out of the grating to be detected by a photodetector. rectangle, circle, polygon or freeform) From the Analyze menu select set measurements. For now, just try setting a threshold which you feel encompasses the red regions entirely, while minimizing the black regions that are included. A transient bimodality forms which becomes well-defined after 18 h. As soon as there are less and less uninfected cells the bimodality vanishes (22 h) and only infected and more and more apoptotic cells contribute to the overall cell distribution. Thus, straighten lines were 40 pixel-wide in images taken with the first camera and 20 pixel-wide in images taken with the latter. Quantum absorption is defined as the number of photons emitted and absorbed. Demonstration of local protein synthesis within dendrites using a new cell culture system that permits the isolation of living axons and dendrites from their cell bodies. In neurons, however, the positioning of the rough ER (RER) with respect to distal sites of neurites does not explain how in some experimental setups that allow to study the local response of dendrites and axons (reviewed in Holt et al., 2019) newly synthesized proteins are detected peripherally, unless they are produced locally beyond the canonical ER. Compare the standardized values of different samples or conditions to determine relative differences in fluorescence intensity. The longest Tau-positive neurite was selected with a segmented line and straighten, smoothen and binarized with the MaxEntropy mask (MaxEntropy). Click OK to confirm. Figure 3.22. To overcome this situation, we have developed a simple method that helps visualize and quantify puromycin-positive sites in neurites by filtering and binarizing imaged cells using FIJI/ImageJ. (2017). Neurites were selected with a segmented line (step 5), straighten, smoothen and binarized with the MaxEntropy mask (steps 6 and 7). 1, 2, and 3, DMSO-treated cells exposed to puromycin for 5, 10, and 30 mins, respectively; 4, 5 and 6, A-treated cells exposed to puromycin for 5, 10, and 30 mins, respectively. J. Comp. To label endogenous RNAs neurons were washed once with cold PBS with 3 g.ml1 digitonin (Sigma Aldrich), once with 50% methanol in PBS and fixed in cold 100% methanol for 5 min. Other applications of OLEDs integrated with microfluidic devices have been reported for detection of proteins [6], human serum albumin (HSA) [9] with a detection limit of 10mg/mL. Finally, press Control (or command)-M to measure the image. The solid lines display the fitting curves calculated using Eq.12.16 for parallel component, and Eq.12.17 for perpendicular component, respectively. Taking advantage of the fact that SYTO-labeled cells were also labeled with puromycin, after binarizing the images corresponding to both stains we applied the AND function in the image calculator which essentially retrieves the colocalization between objects. Fluorescence is mainly induced either by laser or by LEDs. The first evidence of A oligomers regulating local translation in neurons was reported in axons (Baleriola et al., 2014). In both cases the non-canonical molecules can be fluorescently tagged. The first utilizes modified amino acids, such azidohomoalanine, that get incorporated into the nascent polypeptide chain. Exogenous stimulus sensed by neurites influence the local translation machinery and mRNAs are released from RNPs complexes. This statement has at least two caveats, however. Use this formula to calculate the corrected total cell fluorescence (CTCF). Sci. Figure 5. Aschrafi, A., Natera-Naranjo, O., Gioio, A. E., and Kaplan, B. (A) Rat hippocampal neurons were grown for 9 DIV and were treated with DMSO or A142 oligomers for 24 h. Cells were incubated with puromycin for 30 mins and processed for III tubulin (gray) and puromycin immunostaining (heatmaps). MG is a predoctoral fellow funded by the Basque Government. The flow cytometer will calculate the mean fluorescence intensity for each sample. n.s, no significant; two-way ANOVA followed by Holm-Sidaks post hoc test. In situ visualization and dynamics of newly synthesized proteins in rat hippocampal neurons. What pixel intensity do we need to measure? The rotation time r and static fluorescence anisotropy r1 for Cybesin in cancerous tissue were found to be 1.4 times and ~10 times larger than those for normal prostate tissue, respectively. These and other factors like quenching due to proximity of surfaces in microfluidic channels, photobleaching, etc., are challenges that need to be overcome for successful implementation of these devices. First, the beads measure binding of the mAb of interest via its Fc, which is determined by the affinity of the anti-Fc mAb on the beads. Figure 8. Then you need to think about "Segmentation" - this is a process of splitting your image into "signal and "background". Comparison of time-resolved parameters of Cybesin and Cytate in prostate tissues. Thus, the combination of RNA and protein staining techniques followed by image processing and binarization, and object-based colocalization can be successfully used to detect sites of local RNA translation in neurons. Equations12.16 to 12.18, and the temporal profiles of the polarized fluorescence and anisotropy data shown in Fig.12.6 and 12.7(b), are used to obtain the parameters for Cybesin in stained cancerous and normal prostate tissues: r (the rotation time), r1 (anisotropy of the static component) and r0 (the value of dynamical anisotropy for the rotation dipoles at t=0). The graph shows the average translation events per condition represented as Log2 (# puromycin foci + 1) vs. distance SEM measured in 6 independent experiments (n = 6). The results can then be used to measure the area of immunopositivity and/or the intensity of the staining. The dyes are costly, have low shelf life, and are easily affected by variation in chemical properties ie, pH, temperature, etc. 1. Co-localized objects were obtained with the AND function in the image calculator [cyan in (E)] and scored in distal sites of Tau-positive neurites with the particle analyzer. For convenience, all the experimental and calculated parameters for the two receptor-targeted contrast agents (Cybesin and Cytate) in prostate tissues are listed in Table12.2. Synthetic mechanisms in the axon. Files 1, 2, and 3 correspond to red, green, and blue respectively. All three major maceral groups may be recognized by this technique. I am a bot, and this action was performed automatically. Now select Measure from the analyze menu. (B) SYTO-positive staining [as represented in green in (E)] from randomly selected cells was filtered with the convolver, brightness and contrast were adjusted. The ratio of peak fluorescence intensities of Cybesin-stained cancerous tissue to normal prostate tissues is found to be ~3.290.51, indicating that the cancerous prostate tissue takes up more Cybesin than the normal tissue (Pu et al., 2007; Pu et al., 2008; Pu et al., 2011b; Pu et al., 2005). To determine which method was closer to the unbiased measurement of protein production represented by puromycin intensity (Figure 2), we then compared data obtained from binarized images and from raw images with the intensity values. Make sure when you do your analysis you think critically about the data you're pulling out. Finally, regardless of the effect of A142, puromycin intensity was significantly reduced in neurites when cells were co-incubated with the translation inhibitor anisomycin (+ anis + puro, Figure 2A; 5 and 6, Figures 2AC). 5 and 6: co-incubation with anisomycin and puromycin for 30 mins in DMSO- and A-treated cells, respectively. The reference detector is exposed to some fraction of the excitation energy and thus compensates both for the overall lamp spectral output as well as for the much smaller fluctuations in lamp intensity that can result from migration of the arc in xenon lamps. For this purpose, raw images stained for SYTO were processed following the exact same protocol as for puromycin labeling (Figure 1; workflow B): images were convolved with the default normalized kernel in FIJI/ImageJ, minimum and maximum intensity values were adjusted, 16-bit images were converted to 8-bit and binarized using the MaxEntropy mask. Samples were washed with PBS and mounted with ProLong Gold antifade reagent. Neurol. (C) Box and whisker graph representing protein levels as the total fluorescent intensity of the puromycin staining along 130 m of III tubulin-positive neurites. This technique allows the in situ detection of protein synthesis with an anti-puromicyn antibody. Shorter exposures to puromycin were also performed in order to minimize the possible detection of newly synthesized proteins diffused from the soma. Once the image is binarized select the longest positive neurite: Segmented Line (Figure 1; workflow B; step 5) > Edit > Selection > Straighten (line width: 20 pixels for Hamamatsu images; 40 pixels for AxioCam images; Process Entire Stack unclicked; Figure 1; workflow B; step 6) > Process > Smooth > Process > Binary > Make binary (Method, MaxEntropy; Figure 1; workflow B; step 7). All the data can be analyzed below. Our first approach was performed in III tubulin-positive neurites which correspond to both dendrites and axons. (L) Spearman correlation between non-assisted [wA (DMSO, A)] or assisted quantification [wB (DMSO, A)] of translation sites (# puromycin foci) and protein production (mean puro intensity). The nucleus is contained in a cell body or soma, from where several neurites emerge. Control and A-treated cells were fed with 2 M puromycin for 30 min prior to fixation. In the correlation graphs, linear regression of the data was performed to evaluate the differences between slopes (ANCOVA). EMBO Rep. 18, 693711. Although LEDs are cheaper than lasers, they have high divergence and relatively broad emission spectra. Scale bar, 50 m. WebThe following five factors determine fluorescence intensity: (1) The fluorescence intensity ( em) is proportional to the intensity of excitation light ( ex ). Data represent the average value of 1020 sampled cells per condition shown as individual data points, and the mean and median of 6 independent experiments (n = 6). This can be explained by cancerous prostate tissue having a higher cell density (Gleason and Mellinger, 1974; Shmilovici, 2007), so the rotating molecules have less free space. and how do I use the DAPI nuclei stains to "normalize" the MFI data like my mentor said - does it have anything to do with counting the number of nuclei/DAPI stains and relating it to the MFI value from the red signal? However, when fitting the translation sites at each distance to a regression line, a significant increase in the slope was observed when data were obtained from binarized images, suggesting increased similarities between the number of discrete puromycin foci and puromycin intensity values when using the assisted quantification method. (B|) Corresponds to the same workflow as in Figure 1B excluding step 1 which corresponds to the application of the Laplacian filter to enhance the edges. Dear @Ojaswee Adhikari, The following article may help you, measuring-cell-fluorescence-using-imagej.pdf MG, MB-U, AB, JI, and JB performed experiments. J. Phasor approach refers to a method which is used for vectorial representation of sinusoidal waves like alternative currents and voltages or electromagnetic waves. Finally, we focused on neuritic positions distal to the ER to increase the chances that newly synthesized proteins measured in neurites did not rely on the ER-dependent translation machinery. doi: 10.15252/embj.201797724, Palop, J. J., and Mucke, L. (2010). The longest positive neurite (arrowheads in left micrograph) was selected with a segmented line, straighten and divided into 10 m bins with the concentric_circles plugin (straighten neurite right) following workflow Ai in Figure 1. Graphs in (G) and (I) show the average number of translation events per condition represented as Log2 (# puro foci + 1) vs. distance SEM measured following a 30-min puromycin pulse in 6 independent experiments (n = 6). Background pixel intensity was measured outside the area covered by the neurite and substracted (Figure 1; workflow A; step 4i). Images give everyone a chance to understand the problem. #p < 0.05 5 vs. 30 min puromycin in A-treated cells; two-way ANOVA followed by Tukeys multiple comparison test. These beads each have a nominal value of fluorescence intensity, termed molecules of soluble fluorochrome/bead, ascribed to them so that individual median channel values can be converted into a standardized numerical value. Soluble oligomeric amyloid- (A142) was prepared as previously described (Quintela-Lopez et al., 2019). In these experiments, green and red channels corresponding to RNA (SYTO, Figure 5E) and protein (puromycin, Figure 5E) were binarized in parallel and colocalization between objects in both channels was calculated using the AND function in the FIJI/ImageJ image calculator. In the case of A treated cells, increased puromycin intensity might be a result of the emergence of new translation sites, a consequence of an increased rate of protein production in preexisting sites or both. 2. Box and whisker graphs in (H,J) show the total number of translation events scored in Tau-positive neurites within the range of 30 to 150 m [Tau+ (distal)]. Respond when helpful users ask follow-up questions, even if the answer is "I'm not sure". For comparability the cell concentrations have to be converted into number density functions, which are obtained by normalisation with the overall cell concentration at the specific time point and division by the specific class width in logarithmic scale. We then asked whether A oligomers induced changes in the distribution pattern of newly synthesized proteins along neurites, beyond the canonical ER domain. doi: 10.1016/j.ceb.2010.10.011, Savas, J. N., Ma, B., Deinhardt, K., Culver, B. P., Restituito, S., Wu, L., et al. The results can then be used to measure the intensity of staining, as well as its degree of homogeneity. Both quantification methods revealed a significantly distinct distribution of translation sites in neurites in A-treated cells compared to controls (Figure 3E). You should now see a popup box with a stack of values for that first cell. Sprague-Dawley rats were bred in local facilities and embryonic brains were obtained from CO2 euthanized pregnant rats. To calculate the total fluorescent intensity in the soma, in neurites or in other desired interval disregarding the bin position, values retrieved from each bin of interest were summed up ( Figure 1; workflow A; step 5i). In other experiments where some values equaled zero, one unit was added to all values in order to apply a Log2 function. Scale bar, 10 m. The rotation time r and static fluorescence anisotropy r1 for Cytate in cancerous tissue were found to be 1.6 times and ~5 times larger than those for normal prostate tissue, respectively. thank you so much for the help!just to clarify, is the MFI represented by the "mean" section of the results table (instead of area, or integrated density or anything else)? Mol. Additionally, after treatment with DMSO or A oligomers for 24 h, we fed the cells with puromycin for 5, 10, or 30 min. Make sure you have area integrated intensity and mean grey value selected (the rest can be ignored). Curr. Then there is the analysis of the individual in the picture , Step 6: Organize the data, EditCopy, you can Copy the data to Excel. Further increases in concentration induce change in the shape of the fluorescence spectrum because the fluorescence at shorter wavelengths is absorbed by other molecules of the same species (Figure 3.22(b)). Understanding dynamic early changes in the local proteome (axonal, dendritic or synaptic) is in our view crucial to understand basic pathological mechanisms underlying AD and likely other neurological diseases. The emission peak intensity of the Cybesin-stained cancerous tissue is much greater than that of the Cybesin-stained normal tissue. (E) Micrographs from straighten, binarized neurites stained with SYTO RNASelect green fluorescent dye to label RNA (green), with an anti-puromycin antibody to label protein (red) and the resulting images when merging both channels (green, red, and yellow) and when combining both with the AND function in the image calculator (cyan).
