Thrilled to share our new paper published today in
@NatureComms: "Motion blur microscopy: in vitro imaging of cell adhesion dynamics in whole blood flow"
Motion Blur Microscopy (MBM) integrates microfluidics and light microscopy with #AI to provide a low cost, easy to implement alternative to intravital microscopy. We use MBM for visualizing cellular interactions, adhesion, and motility in whole blood flow. MBM is generalizable to studies of various diseases, including blood disorders, cancer, thrombosis, inflammatory and autoimmune diseases. MBM provides rich datasets for theoretical modeling of cellular adhesion dynamics in complex media.

I am happy to share a new open-access article from our lab, just published in @analystrsc: "Rapid measurement of hemoglobin-oxygen dissociation by leveraging Bohr effect and Soret band bathochromic shift"
‼️ Despite its vital role in human physiology, hemoglobin-oxygen dissociation measurement is underutilized in basic research and in clinical laboratories, primarily due to the technical complexity and limited throughput of existing methods.
👉 We present a rapid hemoglobin-oxygen dissociation measurement approach to screen for and detect hemoglobin-oxygen affinity abnormalities and to evaluate the function and efficacy of hemoglobin-modifying therapies within minutes.
👉 We anticipate this method's broad adoption will democratize the diagnosis and prognosis of hemoglobin disorders, such as #sicklecelldisease.
👉 This method has the potential to transform the research and development of new targeted and genome-editing-based therapies that aim to modify or improve hemoglobin-oxygen affinity.
Kudos to @ZoeSekyonda, PhD candidate in our lab, who has led this highly complex and challenging project for many years. @CWRUBME @CaseEngineer @cwru
Initial successful validation of the technology was achieved at @cwru and @UHhospitals in Cleveland, Ohio, and at @JcrcUganda in Kampala, Uganda, where Zoe is from.
I would like to thank @nih_nhlbi @NIBIBgov and @ASH_hematology for supporting Zoe and this project.

ALT Oxygen (O2) binds to hemoglobin (Hb) in the lungs and is then released (dissociated) in the tissues. The Bohr effect is a physiological mechanism that governs the affinity of Hb for O2 based on pH, where a lower pH results in a lower Hb-O2 affinity and higher Hb-O2 dissociation. Hb-O2 affinity and dissociation are crucial for maintaining aerobic metabolism in cells and tissues. Despite its vital role in human physiology, Hb-O2 dissociation measurement is underutilized in basic research and in clinical laboratories, primarily due to the technical complexity and limited throughput of existing methods. We present a rapid Hb-O2 dissociation measurement approach by leveraging the Bohr effect and detecting the optical shift in the Soret band that corresponds to the light absorption by the heme group in Hb. This new method reduces Hb-O2 dissociation measurement time from hours to minutes. We show that Hb deoxygenation can be accelerated chemically at the optimal pH of 6.9.
