Jigsaw Puzzle : Nerve and glial cells, light micrograph
Jigsaw Puzzles From Science Photo Library
Nerve and glial cells, light micrograph
Nerve and glial cells, fluorescence light micrograph. These are neural stem cells that have differentiated into neurons (nerve cells, blue) and glial cells (support cells, red). The branching processes from the neurons are called dendrites. Fluorescent markers have been used to highlight proteins. The proteins stained here are beta III-tubulin (blue), a cytoskeleton element found in neurons, and GFAP (glial fibrillary acidic protein, red), forming the cytoskeleton of the glial cells. This sample is from rat tissue

EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the intricate world of nerve and glial cells, captured through a fluorescence light micrograph. The neural stem cells in this image have undergone differentiation, transforming into neurons (nerve cells) depicted in blue, as well as glial cells (support cells) shown in red. The dendrites extending from the neurons are responsible for transmitting electrical signals throughout the nervous system. To enhance visibility and highlight specific proteins, fluorescent markers were employed during sample preparation. In this particular image, beta III-tubulin is stained blue to emphasize its presence within neuronal cytoskeletons. Meanwhile, GFAP (glial fibrillary acidic protein), which forms the structural framework of glial cells' cytoskeletons, appears vibrant red. It's important to note that this sample originates from rat tissue and offers valuable insights into cellular biology and neurology research. By studying these fundamental building blocks of our nervous system – astrocytes, neurones, differentiated stem cells – scientists gain a deeper understanding of how our brains function. The photographer behind this remarkable image is Daniel Schroen from Cell Applications Inc/Science Photo Library. This visually striking photograph not only captures the beauty found within biological structures but also serves as a testament to human curiosity and scientific exploration in unraveling the mysteries of life itself.
