Aspects of zone-like identity and holotomographic tracking of human stem cell-derived liver sinusoidal endothelial cells

Summary

Holotomography and developed machine learning-based algorithm for image processing allowed us to describe and monitor changes in intracellular pore-like structures over time. Finally, we tested the possibility of inducing aspects of zone-specific LSEC phenotype and metabolism using culture-based treatments, which resulted in modest shifts in marker expression and metabolic activity. The presented strategy provides an advanced tool kit for investigating liver endothelial cells.
