We describe a correlative microscopy method that combines high-speed 3D live-cell fluorescent light microscopy and high-resolution cryo-electron tomography. We demonstrate the capability of the correlative method by imaging dynamic, small HIV-1 particles interacting with host HeLa cells.

Correlation means that there is a relationship between two or more variables (such as ice cream consumption and crime), but this relationship does not necessarily imply cause and effect. When two variables are correlated, it simply means that as one variable changes, so does the other. We can measure correlation by calculating a statistic known as a correlation coefficient. A correlation coefficient is a number from -1 to +1 that indicates the strength and direction of the relationship between...

Non-Canonical Wnt Signaling Pathways

Wnt is a zygotic effect gene that is expressed during very early embryonic development. It regulates various processes in animals starting from early development through the adult stage, such as organogenesis in the embryo and maintenance of neuronal and blood stem cells. Wnt proteins can induce a wide variety of intracellular pathways depending upon the specific abilities of different Wnt ligands to form a complex with shared and cognate receptors in the presence of different co-receptors. The...

Canonical Wnt Signaling Pathway

The gene encoding the main signaling molecules of the Wnt signaling pathways (the Wnt proteins) was discovered almost four decades ago by Nüsslein-Volhard and Wieschaus. They identified and originally named the gene "wingless" (wg) after a phenotype discovered during their landmark genetic screen in Drosophila for body pattern defects. At around the same time, another researcher named Harold Varmus found that a murine tumor virus activates the mammalian wg homolog, Int-1, which results in tumor...

The coefficient weights are selected by optimizing the linear combinations formed from each variable set so that the paired canonical variates have the strongest possible correlation. This weighting condenses several measurements into a coordinated summary rather than evaluating every variable relationship separately, helping engineers identify dominant cross-set patterns in complex measurement systems.
The constraint prevents subsequent canonical variate pairs from reproducing the relationship already captured by earlier pairs. Each new pair therefore represents an additional, distinct pattern connecting the two variable sets. For engineering analysis, this separation can make multiple relationship structures easier to examine without treating the same shared variation as independent evidence.
The two sets should reflect the engineering relationship being investigated. One set might contain sensor readings while the other contains performance indicators, or one may represent process inputs and the other quality measures. This organization gives the resulting canonical variates a practical interpretation and aligns the analysis with a specific system, process, or design question.
First, separate the measurements into two related variable sets. Next, form weighted linear combinations within each set and select the coefficient weights that maximize correlation between paired combinations. After identifying the first pair, continue under the requirement that later pairs remain uncorrelated with earlier ones, then examine the resulting canonical correlations and variates.
Engineers can place sensor readings in one variable set and performance indicators in the other. The resulting paired canonical variates summarize combinations of measurements that move together across these sets, providing a compact view of sensor-performance relationships. This can support feature assessment and help guide model development for engineering systems.
The method can support several engineering tasks, including feature assessment, model development, system monitoring, and data-driven design decisions. It can relate process inputs to quality measures or design variables to response data, allowing engineers to evaluate joint patterns across measurement groups rather than relying on isolated variables or responses.
