Osteocyte bone cell, SEM C016 / 9026
Osteocyte bone cell. Coloured scanning electron micrograph (SEM) of an osteocyte bone cell (red) surrounded by bone tissue (grey). Osteocytes are osteoblasts (bone-producing cells) that have become trapped within bone cavities (lacunae, depressions in bone). They produce and secrete the organic matrix of the bone (osteoid). As soon as osteoid is formed, calcium salts crystallise inside it to form hard, mineralised bone. Magnification: x4000, when printed 10 centimetres wide

EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the intricate beauty of an osteocyte bone cell, captured through a scanning electron microscope. The vibrant colors highlight the presence of an osteocyte bone cell (depicted in red), surrounded by the grey hues of surrounding bone tissue. Osteocytes are specialized cells that were once active osteoblasts, responsible for producing new bone material. Trapped within lacunae or depressions in the bone, these remarkable cells continue to play a crucial role in maintaining healthy bones. They diligently produce and secrete organic matrix known as osteoid, which serves as a foundation for future mineralization. As soon as this osteoid is formed, calcium salts crystallize within it, transforming it into hard and mineralized bone. At a magnification of x4000 when printed 10 centimeters wide, this image offers viewers an up-close glimpse into the microscopic world of our skeletal system. It not only highlights the complexity and precision involved in maintaining strong bones but also reminds us of the incredible intricacies present within our own bodies. Photographed by Steve Gschmeissner from Science Photo Library, this stunning print captures both scientific curiosity and artistic appreciation for nature's wonders. Whether you're fascinated by biology or simply intrigued by human anatomy, this print is sure to captivate your imagination with its vivid portrayal of cellular activity within our skeletal framework.
