Descripción
One of the main topics of cardiovascular research is the study of calcium (Ca2+) handling, as even small changes in Ca2+ concentration can alter cell functionality (Bers, Annu Rev Physiol, 2014, 76, 107–127). Ionic calcium (Ca2+) plays the role of a second messenger in eukaryotic cells, associated with cellular functions such as cell cycle regulation, transport, motility, gene expression, and regulation. The use of fluorometric techniques in isolated cells loaded with Ca2+-sensitive fluorescent probes allows quantitative measurement of dynamic events occurring in living, functioning cells. The Cardiomyocytes Images Analyzer Python (CardIAP) application addresses the need to analyze and retrieve information from confocal microscopy images systematically, accurately, and rapidly. Here we present CardIAP, an open-source tool developed entirely in Python, freely available and useable in an interactive web application. In addition, CardIAP can be used as a standalone Python library and freely installed via PIP, making it easy to integrate into biomedical imaging pipelines. The images that can be generated in the study of the heart have the particularity of requiring both spatial and temporal analysis. CardIAP aims to open the field of cardiomyocytes and intact hearts image processing. The improvement in the extraction of information from the images will allow optimizing the usage of resources and animals. With CardIAP, users can run the analysis to both, the complete image, and portions of it in an easy way, and replicate it on a series of images. This analysis provides users with information on the spatial and temporal changes in calcium releases and characterizes them. The web application also allows users to extract calcium dynamics data in downloadable tables, simplifying the calculation of alternation and discordance indices and their classification. CardIAP aims to provide a tool that could assist biomedical researchers in studying the underlying mechanisms of anomalous calcium release phenomena.
