Confocal image stacks of Drosophila (fruit fly) larvae with labeled dendrite arborization sensory neurons and epidermal cells. In the vertical larva, green is dendrites of sensory neurons on the body...

This video shows an epidermal cell loaded with a florescent lipid diOC-6. diOC-6 is a vital stain for the endoplasmic reticulum and mitochondria. In this sequence one sees the extension of ER tubules ...

This is a migrating epidermal cell showing vigorous lamellipodial ruffling more than 180 degrees around its circumferance. The cell becomes elongated into a canoe shape. The mechanical tension generat...

This sequence shows actin nucleation on the dorsal surface of an advancing lamellipodium. Small actin nucleations have been termed inductipodia in nerve growth cones, since they can be induced by late...

Scanning electron micrograph of the epidermal surface of the Pacific coho salmon. Ridge-like folds of the plasmalemma, called microplicae, display a labyrinth pattern across the surface, and a circum...

Scanning electron micrograph of the epidermal surface of lamprey larvae. A row of microvilli outline the polygonal borders between cells, while short microvilli cover the external surface in a reticu...

Colorized scanning electron micrograph of rust on a rose leaf. Rose rust is a disease specific to roses and is caused by the parasitic fungus Phragmidium tuberculatum and some other closely related s...

The video shows a cytoplast that is adhering to a sub-stratum in its central portion. It is also connected by a retraction fiber to its central cell. The cytoplast is engaging in vigorous protrusive a...

The video shows epidermal cells at the edge of an epithelial sheet in culture. There is vigorous lamellipodial activity at the edge of the cell cluster. Lysosomes and elongated mitochondrial are seen ...

Electron micrograph showing fingerprint like ridges called microplicae on the surface of fish skin epidermis from the neon tetra. These ridges offer mechanical reinforcement against trauma and help ho...
