Confocal micrograph of “lost” axons - chick interneurons labeled with green fluorescent protein that were transplanted from older into younger embryos. When they encounter unfamiliar territory, th...

This electron micrograph shows the basal lamina as a thin gray moustache following parallel along the basal membrane of epithelial cells from human corneal epithelium. In this tissue, the basal lamin...

Electron micrograph of an unmyelinated nerve Schwann cell from a rat tongue. Image made available by James D. Jamieson and the Department of Cell Biology, Yale University School of Medicine.

A scanning electron microscope image of the sensory hair bundle of an inner hair cell from a guinea pig's hearing organ in the inner ear. Vibrations made by sound cause the hairs to be moved back and ...

Confocal image of the developing eye of a chick embryo. The dark region in the centre is the where the surface layer has invaginated to form the lens vesicle. The tissue surrounding this space is stai...

Surface rendered models of chromatin organization from tomogram derived from a TEM image of epon section of a freeze-substituted mouse retina. (C) shows the region boxed in CIL:39743 where 4 regions o...

The purpose of this study was to investigate the progression of changes in retinal ganglion cells and optic nerve glia in neurofibromatosis-1 (NF1) genetically-engineered mice with optic glioma. RGC w...

These examples of ependymal epithelium from the rat brain represent epithelia that lack zonulae occludentes. Further, there appears to be no consistent order to the junctional specializations that are...

Figure 297 from Chapter 11 (Melanin Pigment) of 'The Cell, 2nd Ed.' by Don W. Fawcett M.D. Epidermal melanocyte from facial skin of an orangutan illustrates the interstitial location of a melanocyte ...

Radial glial cell from right tectal lobe of Xenopus laevis tadpole CNS, stage 47. This radial glial cell expresses eGFP. It was transfected ~60 hours earlier with in vivo electroporation of plasmid DN...
