Quantify Chemotherapeutic Cytotoxicity in Glial Cells using AI-Driven Label-Free Analysis Application Note

Overview

Glioblastoma multiform (GBM) is an aggressive glioma that originates from astrocytes and is associated with poor prognosis. Several barriers exist in the treatment of GBM, including the localization of the tumor within the brain, a high rate of malignant invasion, tumor heterogeneity, and an intrinsic resistance to conventional therapies. Despite concerted efforts to overcome these, a lack of translational in vitro models and robust analytical tools makes deciphering the complex molecular interactions challenging.

In this application note, we describe a robust solution for label-free cell segmentation and live/dead classification of individual cells using integrated AI-based software. We exemplify how this approach can provide high-throughput insights into glial cell health in response to clinically relevant chemotherapeutic treatments.
