1,2,4,5-Tetrazine-tethered probes for fluorogenically imaging superoxide in live cells with ultrahigh specificity
Specific detection of cellular superoxide is challenging. Here, the authors designed 1,2,4,5-tetrazine based fluorogenic probes for specific and sensitive imaging of superoxide, and applied them in high throughput screening of modulators of oxidative stress.
A simple bubble-popping game can assess motor skills in young autistic children
A simple bubble-popping game created by our research team revealed differences in visual-motor skills in young autistic children. These differences were accentuated when autistic children had co-occurring ADHD. This engaging game could be part of a broader and scalable digital autism screening tool.
