Confocal imaging dataset to assess endothelial cell orientation during extreme glucose conditions

Sci Data. 2022 Jan 27;9(1):26. doi: 10.1038/s41597-022-01130-x.

Abstract

Confocal microscopy offers a mean to extract quantitative data on spatially confined subcellular structures. Here, we provide an imaging dataset of confocal z-stacks on endothelial cells spatially confined on lines with different widths, visualizing the nucleus, F-actin, and zonula occludens-1 (ZO-1), as well as the lines. This dataset also includes confocal images of spatially confined endothelial cells challenged with different glucose conditions. We have validated the image quality by established analytical means using the MeasureImageQuality module of the CellProfilerTM software. We envision that this dataset could be used to extract data on both a population and a single cell level, as well as a learning set for the development of new image analysis tools.
