Single frog sacculus hair bundle imaged with field-emission scanning electron microscope.

Transmission electron micrograph of an alveolar macrophage which contains E2, a fluorocarbon. This macrophage is from a mouse which liquid breathed that fluorocarbon for 3 hours and was allowed to rec...

Chicken basilar papilla (cochlea) hair bundles imaged with field-emission scanning electron microscope.

Confocal micrograph of astrocytes and oligodendrocytes from neural stem cells Astrocytes (green) and oligodendrocytes (red) derived from rat neural stem cells in culture. Both these cells are types of...

Maximum intensity projection of an optical section series of a basket cell from the rat cerebellar vermis. This cell was labeled by intracellular injection of lucifer yellow, and imaged using Biorad ...

Immunohistochemistry of neuron-specific β-III-tubulin (red) shows the delicate dendrites of Purkinje cells in the cerebellum. Cell nuclei are revealed with DAPI staining (blue). Scale bar, 100 µm.

Color-enhanced scanning electron micrograph of the inside of a guinea pig inner ear showing the hearing organ, or cochlea. Running along the spiral structure are rows of sensory cells which respond to...

Dorsal root ganglion nerve cells stained to reveal the microtubules (green) and actin filaments (red). The axon shaft contains bundles of microtubules that give structural support and carry cargo (pro...

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...

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 ...
