Quantitative determination of the spatial distribution of components in single cells with CellDetail
Open accessPublished version of a preprint
Abstract
The distribution of biomolecules within cells changes upon aging and diseases. To quantitatively determine the spatial distribution of components inside cells, we built the user-friendly open-source 3D-cell-image analysis platform Cell Det ection and A nalysis of I ntensity L ounge (CellDetail). The algorithm within CellDetail is based on the concept of the dipole moment. CellDetail provides quantitative values for the distribution of the polarity proteins Cdc42 and Tubulin in young and aged hematopoietic stem cells (HSCs). Septin proteins form networks within cells that are critical for cell compartmentalization. We uncover a reduced level of organization of the Septin network within aged HSCs and within senescent human fibroblasts. Changes in the Septin network structure might therefore be a common feature of aging. The level of organization of the network of Septin proteins in aged HSCs can be restored to a youthful level by pharmacological attenuation of the activity of the small RhoGTPase Cdc42.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
