Label-free two-photon imaging of mitochondrial activity in murine macrophages stimulated with bacterial and viral ligands

Abstract Mitochondria are the metabolic hub of the cell, playing a central role in regulating immune responses. Dysfunction of mitochondrial reprogramming can occur during bacterial and viral infections compromising hosts’ immune signaling. Comparative evaluation of these alterations in response to...
