Jigsaw Puzzle : Glial cell, SEM
Jigsaw Puzzles From Science Photo Library
Glial cell, SEM
Glial cell. Coloured scanning electron micrograph (SEM) of a cultured glial cell (centre). Glial cells are nervous system cells that provide structural support and protection for neurons (nerve cells). In the human brain, the most concentrated region of glial activity is in the cerebral cortex, where there are about four glia for every neuron

EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases a glial cell, captured using a scanning electron microscope (SEM). Glial cells are an essential component of the nervous system, providing crucial support and protection to neurons. In this image, we see a cultured glial cell at the center, surrounded by its intricate network of extensions and filaments. The vibrant colors in this SEM image have been added artificially to highlight different structures within the cell. The false coloring helps us appreciate the complexity and beauty of these microscopic entities that play such a vital role in our brain's functioning. Within the human brain, glial activity is most concentrated in the cerebral cortex. It is fascinating to note that there are approximately four times as many glia cells as there are neurons in this region. This emphasizes their significance in maintaining neural health and facilitating efficient communication between nerve cells. By studying glial cells through techniques like SEM, researchers gain valuable insights into neurobiology and neuroscience. These findings contribute to our understanding of various neurological disorders and pave the way for potential therapeutic interventions. This remarkable print from Science Photo Library serves as a reminder of how even at minuscule scales, biological systems can be awe-inspiring works of art.
