Metal Print : Stem cell, light micrograph
Metal Prints From Science Photo Library
Stem cell, light micrograph
Stem cell. Coloured light micrograph of a human embryonic stem cell (HESC, centre) surrounded by feeder cells. HESCs are pluripotent, they are able to differentiate into any of the 200 cell types in the human body. The type of cell they mature into depends upon the biochemical signals received by the immature cells. Feeder cells support the growth of HESCs, preventing differentiation until there are a sufficient number present. HESCs are a potential source of cells to repair damaged tissue in diseases such as Parkinsons and insulin-dependent diabetes. However, use of HESCs is controversial as it requires the destruction of an embryo

EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the intricate world of stem cells through a vibrant light micrograph. At its center, a single human embryonic stem cell (HESC) takes the spotlight, surrounded by feeder cells that provide crucial support for its growth and development. The HESCs depicted here possess an extraordinary ability - they are pluripotent, meaning they have the potential to differentiate into any of the 200 different cell types found in the human body. The fate of these remarkable cells is determined by biochemical signals they receive during their maturation process. Feeder cells play a vital role in this journey by preventing premature differentiation until there is an adequate number of HESCs present. While this image highlights the immense therapeutic potential held within these stem cells, it also sheds light on their controversial nature. Utilizing HESCs for medical purposes necessitates the destruction of embryos, sparking ethical debates surrounding their use. Nevertheless, researchers recognize that HESCs hold promise as a source for repairing damaged tissues in diseases like Parkinson's and insulin-dependent diabetes. Their unique properties make them invaluable tools in regenerative medicine and offer hope for future breakthroughs in treating various debilitating conditions. Science Photo Library has captured this momentous snapshot from developmental biology with precision and artistry, providing us with a glimpse into the fascinating world of stem cell research and its implications for medical advancements.
