Enhanced visualization of influenza A virus entry into living cells using virus-view atomic force microscopy
ALT ViViD-AFM is a hybrid live imaging technology that captures cell surface nanometric morphological features and fluorescent signals. It uses atomic force microscopy (AFM) specifically tailored for soft surface biological imaging. It is delicate enough to preserves weak virus-host interactions at the live cell surface. The image - showing an influenza A virus taken up into the cell by clathrin-mediated endocytosis - was created by @ScienceBrush Design.

Yamauchi @YamauchiLab presenting his #SARS -CoV-2 co-receptor study which was EU project of the month in Autumn 2020 and his more recent research on virus-inspired protein cages for cellular uptake to facilitate payload delivery in cells.

And here we go - this is how the entry of the influenza virus looks like. But the virus has even more stunning tricks - it uses, for instance, the host cell's waste disposal system to break down its capsid as Yamauchi @YamauchiLab explains.

This works comes from a fantastic collaboration with @YamauchiLab at @ETH_DCHAB and Patrick Matthias at @FMIscience on understanding the role of branched Ub chains in viral infections. For this we need homogenous Ub chains to reconstitute the machinery that uncoats viral capsids.

I highly recommend taking a look at "Catching the (viral) burglar", an engaging interview article written by Julia Ecker that effectively summarizes our research. chab.ethz.ch/en/news-and-eve… @ETH_DCHAB

Single #cancer cells separate from their #tumour and dissipate via the bloodstream. Early #detection can help physicians to intervene in time. Check out this article and learn more about Stavros Stavrakis' (@deMelloGroup ) promising #diagnostic method:
