In this paper, a structured illumination microscopy (SIM) image reconstruction algorithm combined with notch function (N-SIM) is proposed. This method suppresses the defocus signal in the imaging process by processing the low-frequency signal of the image. The existing super-resolution image reconstruction algorithm produces streak artifacts caused by defocus signal. The experimental results show that the algorithm proposed in our study can well suppress the streak artifacts caused by defocused signals during the imaging process without losing the effective information of the image. The image reconstruction algorithm is used to analyze the mouse hepatocytes, and the image processing tool developed by MATLAB is applied to identify, detect and count the reconstructed images of mitochondria and lipid droplets, respectively. It is found that the mitochondrial activity in oxidative stress induced growth inhibitor 1 (OSGIN1) overexpressed mouse hepatocytes is higher than that in normal cells, and the interaction with lipid droplets is more obvious. This paper provides a reliable subcellular observation platform, which is very meaningful for biomedical work.
