This study developed a Deep Learning classifier to objectively categorize mitochondrial morphology, a key indicator of cell state and fate. The AI model achieved high accuracy in distinguishing between fission and fusion patterns in cells.

Area of Science:

  • Cell Biology
  • Biotechnology
  • Artificial Intelligence

Background:

  • Mitochondrial morphology, involving fission and fusion, reflects cellular condition and predicts cell fate.
  • Current methods for classifying mitochondrial dynamics are subjective and lack objectivity.
  • Mitochondrial dynamics serve as a simple indicator of cell state.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To evaluate the efficacy of Deep Learning (DL) techniques for classifying mitochondrial morphology.
  • To develop an objective and automated method for assessing mitochondrial dynamics.
  • To correlate mitochondrial morphology with cellular condition and fate prediction.

Main Methods:

  • Mitochondrial images were acquired from HeLa and MC3T3-E1 cells using fluorescent microscopy.

  • Images were classified into four groups based on fission or fusion, with excellent inter-rater reliability.
  • A 50-layer ResNet Convolutional Neural Network (CNN) architecture was trained using MATLAB with five-fold cross-validation.
  • Main Results:

    • The DL classifier achieved a mean overall accuracy of 0.73±0.10 for classifying mitochondrial morphology in HeLa cells.
    • Training with mixed cell line images improved classification accuracy (0.74±0.01) compared to single cell line training.
    • The developed classifier demonstrated robust performance in categorizing mitochondrial morphology.

    Conclusions:

    • A Deep Learning-based classifier was successfully developed to categorize mitochondrial morphology.
    • This AI approach offers an objective method for analyzing mitochondrial dynamics.
    • The findings suggest DL can be a valuable tool in cell biology research for assessing cell state and fate.
