The capture and activation of individual T cells on functionalised surfaces enables real-time analyses of the magnitude and rhythm of intracellular calcium release. Application of Haarlet transformations generate a calcium flux 'threshold', with the frequency of the 'threshold crossings' correlating with the strength of the original T cell stimulus. These findings represent a new method to evaluate graduations in T cell activation in real time, and at a single-cell level.
在功能化表面捕获并激活单个T细胞,能够对细胞内钙释放的幅度和节律进行实时分析。应用哈尔小波变换可生成钙通量“阈值”,“阈值穿越”的频率与原始T细胞刺激的强度相关。这些发现代表了一种在单细胞水平实时评估T细胞激活程度的新方法。
