MTQuant: "Seeing" Beyond the Diffraction Limit in Fluorescence Images to Quantify Neuronal Microtubule Organization

Roshni Cooper, Shaul Yogev, Kang Shen, Mark Horowitz

MTQuant quantifies neuronal microtubule organization from fluorescence images by measuring minus-end spacing, average length, and cross-sectional count, validated on C. elegans motor neuron data.

Prevalent Presence of Periodic Actin-spectrin-based Membrane Skeleton in a Broad Range of Neuronal Cell Types and Animal Species

Jiang He, Ruobo Zhou, Zhuhao Wu, Monica Carrasco, Peri Kurshan, Jonathan Farley, David Simon, Guiping Wang, Boran Han, Junjie Hao, Evan Heller, Marc Freeman, Kang Shen, Tom Maniatis, Marc Tessier-Lavigne, Xiaowei Zhuang

The paper investigates the prevalence of the actin-spectrin-based membrane skeleton (MPS) across neuronal types and species, finding it widespread in axons and some glial processes but absent in presynaptic boutons.
