Cell Death Dysfunction Dysfunction
– Examining molecular mechanism of cell death.
SLIDE 5
– Monkey Kidney Cells – Cancer cell line – COS1 Cells transfected with Tau
- Determine cell survival/death under
various treatments and time points for Alzheimer’s disease.

- Cell survival/death ratio
- Cell Count by segmentation
– Live cells = total cells – dead cells
- Cell shape: extract further information
(e.g. Cell division ratio)
