Meanings

1. A single-wavelength excitable brainbow for simultaneous multicolor ex vivo and in vivo imaging of mammalian cells.
   • Here, we report the development of a single-wavelength excitable Brainbow, UFObow, incorporating three newly developed blue-excitable FPs. We have demonstrated that UFObow enables not only tracking the growth dynamics of tumor cells in vivo but also mapping spatial distribution of immune cells within a sub-cubic centimeter tissue, revealing cell heterogeneity. 2024 April 1, Jiahong Hu, et al., “UFObow: A single-wavelength excitable Brainbow for simultaneous multicolor ex-vivo and in-vivo imaging of mammalian cells”, in Nature, archived from the original on 10 Apr 2024:
