B-cell, SEM
B-cell, coloured scanning electron micrograph (SEM). B-cells are a type of white blood cell involved in immune respone. They account for 10 per cent of the bodys lymphocytes. On encountering a foreign antigen, such as a bacterial surface protein, the immature B-cell either divides into a number of plasma cells, which produce antibodies, or it matures into a memory cell. Memory cells remain in the body for years, giving immunity to the original pathogen. The cell surface is covered with microvilli, to help it bind to target proteins. Magnification: x6000 when printed at 10 centimetres wide

EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the intricate beauty of a B-cell, a vital component of our immune system. Colored in vibrant hues, this scanning electron micrograph (SEM) reveals the fascinating details of these white blood cells responsible for mounting an immune response. B-cells make up approximately 10 percent of our body's lymphocytes and play a crucial role in defending against foreign invaders. When encountering antigens like bacterial surface proteins, immature B-cells undergo two possible pathways. They either divide into plasma cells that produce antibodies or mature into memory cells. The longevity and effectiveness of our immune system are owed to these remarkable memory cells, which remain within our bodies for years after an initial infection. This grants us immunity against future encounters with the same pathogen. Adorned with microvilli on its cell surface, this B-cell is equipped with tiny protrusions that aid in binding to target proteins. The level of magnification used to capture this image allows us to appreciate the intricacies at x6000 when printed at 10 centimeters wide. Science Photo Library has once again provided us with a stunning visual representation of the wonders found within human biology and anatomy. This photograph not only highlights the importance of B-cells but also serves as a reminder of how incredible our body's defense mechanisms truly are.
