[{"_id":"13052","abstract":[{"lang":"eng","text":"Imaging of the immunological synapse (IS) between dendritic cells (DCs) and T cells in suspension is hampered by suboptimal alignment of cell-cell contacts along the vertical imaging plane. This requires optical sectioning that often results in unsatisfactory resolution in time and space. Here, we present a workflow where DCs and T cells are confined between a layer of glass and polydimethylsiloxane (PDMS) that orients the cells along one, horizontal imaging plane, allowing for fast en-face-imaging of the DC-T cell IS."}],"date_published":"2023-04-28T00:00:00Z","article_processing_charge":"No","volume":2654,"publication_status":"published","year":"2023","oa_version":"None","editor":[{"full_name":"Baldari, Cosima","first_name":"Cosima","last_name":"Baldari"},{"first_name":"Michael","full_name":"Dustin, Michael","last_name":"Dustin"}],"user_id":"2DF688A6-F248-11E8-B48F-1D18A9856A87","date_updated":"2023-10-17T08:44:53Z","external_id":{"pmid":["37106180"]},"scopus_import":"1","acknowledged_ssus":[{"_id":"Bio"},{"_id":"NanoFab"},{"_id":"M-Shop"}],"publication_identifier":{"isbn":["9781071631348"],"issn":["1064-3745"],"eissn":["1940-6029"],"eisbn":["9781071631355"]},"place":"New York, NY","month":"04","series_title":"MIMB","date_created":"2023-05-22T08:41:48Z","page":"137-147","department":[{"_id":"MiSi"},{"_id":"NanoFab"}],"quality_controlled":"1","publication":"The Immune Synapse","status":"public","intvolume":"      2654","publisher":"Springer Nature","day":"28","alternative_title":["Methods in Molecular Biology"],"author":[{"full_name":"Leithner, Alexander F","first_name":"Alexander F","last_name":"Leithner","id":"3B1B77E4-F248-11E8-B48F-1D18A9856A87","orcid":"0000-0002-1073-744X"},{"last_name":"Merrin","full_name":"Merrin, Jack","first_name":"Jack","orcid":"0000-0001-5145-4609","id":"4515C308-F248-11E8-B48F-1D18A9856A87"},{"id":"41E9FBEA-F248-11E8-B48F-1D18A9856A87","orcid":"0000-0002-6620-9179","last_name":"Sixt","first_name":"Michael K","full_name":"Sixt, Michael K"}],"type":"book_chapter","ec_funded":1,"citation":{"short":"A.F.
