This study highlights that stimulated-emission-depletion (STED) microscopy is perfectly adapted for visualization, quantification, dynamics and molecular analysis of Liver sinusoidal endothelial cells (LSECs) fenestrae. Indeed, after fluorescence staining of the cell membrane or cytoplasm and using this super resolution optical microscopy method, we created a simple strategy for LSECs fenestrae analysis.
