Essential thrombocythemia (ET) and polycythemia vera (PV) are myeloproliferative neoplasms (MPNs) that share the JAK2(V617F) mutation in hematopoietic stem cells, leading to excessive production of predominantly platelets in ET, and predominantly red blood cells (RBCs) in PV. The major cause

The aptamer (S2.2)-guided Ag-Au nanostructures (aptamer-Ag-Au) have been synthesized by photoreduction and validated by ultraviolet-visible light (UV-vis) spectra and transmission electron microscopy (TEM) images. Differential interference contrast (DIC), fluorescence, and TEM images, and surface-enhanced Raman scattering (SERS) spectra indicated that

Superresolution fluorescence microscopy possesses an important role for the study of processes in biological cells with subdiffraction resolution. Recently, superresolution methods employing the emission properties of fluorophores have rapidly evolved due to their technical simplicity and direct applicability to existing
