Immunofluorescent LM of fibroblast cell nuclei
Cell nuclei. Immunofluorescent light micrograph of cultured fibroblast cells showing nuclei with " nucleolar necklaces". The round structures are the nuclei, the control centres of the individual cells. Within the nuclei are the nucleoli. These have been altered structurally in preparation to appear as ring-like structures, or " nucleolar necklaces". These are the sites of ribosome RNA synthesis and ribosome assembly. Dyed green in the cytoplasm is the cytoskeletal protein actin. This helps to maintain the shape of the cell. Immunofluorescence is a technique using antibodies to attach fluorescent dyes to cells. Magnification: x624 at 6x4.5cm size

EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the intricate beauty of fibroblast cell nuclei under immunofluorescent light microscopy. The round structures depicted are the nuclei, which serve as control centers for individual cells. Within these nuclei lie the nucleoli, responsible for ribosome RNA synthesis and assembly. In this preparation, the nucleoli have been altered to appear as ring-like structures resembling "nucleolar necklaces". The vibrant green dye in the cytoplasm represents actin, a crucial cytoskeletal protein that helps maintain cell shape. This stunning image was captured using immunofluorescence, a technique that utilizes antibodies to attach fluorescent dyes to cells. With a magnification of x624 at 6x4.5cm size, this photograph offers an up-close look into the fascinating world of biology and cytology. It provides valuable insights into cell structure and highlights the complex processes occurring within our bodies on a microscopic level. Science Photo Library has expertly captured this mesmerizing snapshot of cellular life with their expertise in fluorescence microscopy and biological imaging techniques. Their dedication to showcasing scientific wonders through visually striking photographs is evident in every detail of this remarkable print.
