This paper identifies Atto 643 carboxy as a highly specific fluorescent dye for astrocyte labeling with minimal oligodendrocyte cross-reactivity and improved specificity compared to SR101.

This study uses plasmonic nanovesicles to measure diffusion in GBM and finds the tumor margin has the lowest diffusion coefficient, indicating it acts as a diffusion barrier.

The paper develops a method to image the entire brain extracellular matrix in live tissue using a protein-reactive dye, enabling visualization of ECM structures in various brain conditions.
