Knowledge of lipid droplets (LDs) has evolved from simple depots of lipid storage to
dynamic and functionally active organelles involved in a variety of cellular functions. Studies …

Neurodegenerative diseases (NDDs) are a series of disorders characterized by the
progressive loss of specific neurons, leading to cognitive and locomotor impairment. NDDs …

The combination of polarization-sensitive optical coherence tomography (PS-OCT) and
birefringence microscopy (BRM) enables multiscale assessment of myelinated axons in …

Astrocytes exhibit an important role in neural lipid metabolism for the regulation of energy
balance to supply fatty acids (FAs) and ketone bodies to other neural cells. Lipid droplets …

Neuroscience would directly benefit from more effective detection techniques, leading to
earlier diagnosis of disease. The specificity of Raman spectroscopy is unparalleled, given …

Myelin is a membrane wrapped around the axon of the nerve cell, which is composed of the
mature oligodendrocytes. The role of myelin is to insulate and prevent the nerve electrical …

Significance: Myelin breakdown is likely a key factor in the loss of cognitive and motor
function associated with many neurodegenerative diseases. Aim: New methods for imaging …

Multiple sclerosis (MS) is a complex and long-lasting neurodegenerative disease of the
central nervous system (CNS), characterized by the loss of myelin within the white matter …

Coherent anti-Stokes Raman spectroscopy (CARS) is a technique classically employed by
chemists and physicists to produce a coherent signal of signature vibrations of molecules …

Multiple sclerosis (MS) is an inflammatory and demyelinating disease of the central nervous
system (CNS) that leads to disability in middle‐aged individuals. High rates of apoptosis and …
