This protocol describes an assay for measuring CFTR function and CFTR modulator responses in cultured tissue from subjects with cystic fibrosis (CF). Biopsy-derived intestinal organoids swell in a cAMP-driven fashion, a response that is defective (or strongly reduced) in CF organoids and can be restored by exposure to CFTR modulators.

Optical-resolution photoacoustic microscopy (OR-PAM) is an emerging technology capable of imaging optical absorption contrasts in vivo with cellular resolution and sensitivity. Here, we provide a visualized instruction on the experimental protocols of OR-PAM, including system configuration, system alignment, typical in vivo experimental procedures, and functional imaging schemes.

Chromatographic Resolution

In chromatography, a solute moves through a chromatographic column and tends to spread, forming a Gaussian-shaped band. The longer the solute spends in the column, the broader the band becomes. The broadening can lead to overlaps within the column, affecting separation effectiveness. The effectiveness of separation can be evaluated by determining the level of separation between two neighboring peaks in a chromatogram, which represents the individual components of a sample. In chromatography,...

We describe the preparation of three test samples and how they can be used to optimize and assess the performance of STORM microscopes. Using these examples we show how to acquire raw data and then process it to acquire super-resolution images in cells of approximately 30-50 nm resolution.
FAQs
Resolution depends on coordinated changes rather than fluid movement alone. As inflammatory signals decline, blood vessel permeability returns toward normal, limiting further leakage into tissues. Lymphatic vessels then remove interstitial fluid and cellular debris, while circulation and kidney function contribute to restoring overall fluid balance. Failure at any stage can prolong tissue enlargement or edema.
Lymphatic drainage clears material that remains in the tissue space after inflammation or injury. By removing interstitial fluid and cellular debris, lymphatic vessels support reduction of local enlargement. Their role complements the return of vascular permeability toward normal; improved vessel behavior alone may not fully resolve swelling when lymphatic drainage is impaired.
Persistent edema is not simply slower normal recovery. It may reflect ongoing infection, vascular disease, organ dysfunction, or impaired lymphatic drainage, each of which can disrupt fluid removal or systemic balance. Identifying the underlying reason matters because continued swelling may indicate that one or more mechanisms supporting Swelling Resolution remain compromised.
Clinicians use the course of swelling together with its clinical context to distinguish expected recovery from persistent edema. They consider whether the initiating inflammation is subsiding and whether vascular, lymphatic, circulatory, or kidney-related factors could be maintaining fluid accumulation. This reasoning helps separate a resolving response from a problem requiring further evaluation.
Swelling Resolution is relevant across inflammatory disorders, trauma, postoperative swelling, and chronic fluid accumulation. In each setting, clinicians can ask whether the expected reduction in fluid and tissue enlargement is occurring and whether a continuing inflammatory, vascular, organ-related, or lymphatic problem could explain persistence. This supports more targeted assessment.
Mechanistic understanding links observed swelling to a possible source of fluid imbalance. When inflammation, vessel permeability, lymphatic drainage, circulation, or kidney function appears relevant, clinicians can refine diagnostic reasoning and treatment planning rather than treating tissue enlargement as an isolated finding. This approach is especially useful in complex or chronic cases.
