HeLa cells, light micrograph C017 / 8299
HeLa cells, multiphoton fluorescence micrograph (MFM). The cell nuclei, which contain the cells genetic information, are purple. Microtubules are blue and actin microfilaments are red. Microtubules and actin are protein filaments that make up part of the cytoskeleton. The cytoskeleton maintains the cells shape, allows some cellular mobility and is involved in intracellular transport. HeLa cells are a continuously cultured cell line of human cancer cells. They are immortal and so thrive in the laboratory. HeLa cells are widely used in biological and medical research

EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases HeLa cells, a remarkable cell line derived from human cancer cells. The image, captured using a light microscope and multiphoton fluorescence technique, reveals the intricate details of these immortal cells. The purple hues represent the cell nuclei, which house the genetic information essential for cellular function. Delving deeper into the cytoplasmic landscape, we observe blue microtubules intertwined with red actin microfilaments. These protein filaments form part of the cytoskeleton - an internal framework that maintains cell shape and enables mobility while facilitating intracellular transport processes. HeLa cells have become indispensable in biological and medical research due to their unique characteristics. Thriving endlessly in laboratory cultures, they offer scientists an invaluable tool for studying various aspects of human biology and disease progression. The significance of this image extends beyond its aesthetic appeal; it symbolizes our ongoing quest to unravel the complexities of life at a microscopic level. By harnessing the power of immunofluorescent techniques and microscopy advancements, researchers can explore how abnormalities within these malignant cervical cancer cells contribute to oncology's understanding. As we peer into this mesmerizing world through the lens of science, we gain insights into organelles' functions and interactions within living organisms. This photograph serves as a testament to humanity's relentless pursuit of knowledge in medicine and biology – striving towards breakthroughs that may one day revolutionize healthcare practices worldwide.
