Individual subsets of immune cells can be distinguished based on their activation in response to viral infections. They can then be further investigated to determine their effects on early antiviral responses. Immunology and Infection Multiplexed Fluorescent Immunohistochemical Staining, Imaging, and Analysis in Histological Samples of Lymphoma Guo Hong*1,2, Shuangyi Fan*3, The Phyu3, Priyanka Maheshwari2, Michal Marek Hoppe2, Hoang Mai Phuong2, Sanjay de Mel4, Michelle Poon4, Siok-Bian Ng2,3, Anand D.

This protocol can be extended to the colocalization analysis of biomarkers within all tissue sections. Medicine Using Retinal Imaging to Study Dementia Victor T.T. Chan1, Tiffany H.K.

This protocol describes a method to study dementia using retinal imaging techniques. This method can potentially aid in diagnosis and risk assessment of dementia.
