Considerable progress has been made in our knowledge of the morphological and functional varieties anchoring junctions. Cell-cell adhesion contacts consist discrete junctional structures responsible for mechanical coupling cytoskeletons allow transmission signals across cell collective. The three main complexes are adherens junctions, tight desmosomes. Microscopy played a fundamental role understanding these on different levels both physiological pathological conditions. In this review, we discuss light electron microscopy techniques used to unravel structure composition cell-cell epithelial endothelial cells. It functions as guide pick appropriate imaging technique(s) interest. We also point out latest that have emerged. At end, problems investigators encounter during their research using microscopic techniques.

Super-resolution fluorescence microscopy allows the investigation of cellular structures at nanoscale resolution using light. Current developments in super-resolution have focused on reliable quantification underlying biological data. In this review, we first describe basic principles techniques such as stimulated emission depletion (STED) and single-molecule localization (SMLM), then give a broad overview methodological to quantify data, particularly those geared toward SMLM We cover commonly used spatial point pattern analysis, colocalization, protein copy number but also more advanced structural modeling, single-particle tracking, biosensing. Finally, provide an outlook exciting new research directions which quantitative might be applied.
