Using localized force-distance curves from AFM, a deep neural network was trained and biologically validated to predict and accurately distinguish macrophage polarization states, including complex ...

Researchers developed and validated a label-free, non-invasive method combining AFM with deep learning for accurate profiling of human macrophage mechanophenotypes and rapid identification of their ...

At the height of the SARS-CoV-2 pandemic, researchers in Thomas Marichal’s immunophysiology laboratory at the University of Liège were studying samples collected from the lungs of patients who had ...

Macrophages—or “big eaters”—are exactly what they sound like. These immune cells roam our bodies hunting down infections, cancers, or injuries. When they detect a target, the cells release a calvary ...

Macrophages drive key immune processes including inflammation, tissue repair, and tumorigenesis via distinct polarization states whose accurate identification is vital for diagnosis and immunotherapy.
