Lysosomes are the terminal end of catabolic pathways in the cell, as well as signaling centers performing important functions such as the recycling of macromolecules, organelles, and nutrient adaptation. The importance of lysosomes in human health is supported by the fact that the deficiency of most lysosomal genes causes monogenic diseases called as a group Lysosomal Storage Diseases (LSDs). A common...
The objective of titrating fluorochrome‐labeled antibodies is to identify the optimal concentration for a given marker‐fluorochrome pair that results in the best possible separation between the positive and negative cell populations, while minimizing the background within the negative population. Best practices in flow cytometry dictate that each new lot of antibody should be titrated on the sample...
Finding novel methodologies that enhance the precision, agility, and standardization of drug discovery is crucial for studying leishmaniasis. The slide count is the technique most used to assess the leishmanicidal effect of a given drug in vitro. Despite being consolidated in the scientific environment, it presents several difficulties in its execution, assessment, and results. In addition to being...
