COS 7 cell expressing Organelle LightsTM PM-GFP (Invitrogen)consisting of the myristoylation/palmitoylation sequence from Lck tyrosine kinase. Images were collected with a 63X 1.4 NA Plan-Apochromat ...

We examined the structural organization of cytoskeletal components and membrane systems in neurons of well preserved biopsy material from Alzheimer’s disease (AD). Information was obtained from thin...

These two micrographs show the outer cell surface of the epithelial cell border in intestine (upper) and stomach (lower) tissue. This surface, called the glycocalyx, is composed of negatively charged...

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...

Sarcolemma of skeletal muscle prepared by a quick-freeze deep-etch method also shows the basement membrane (lamina externa, labeled here as the basal lamina) associated with the muscle fiber. This me...

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...

Single image from a serial section electron microscopic reconstruction of the cell body of a cortical pyramidal neuron from a biopsy sample obtained from the cortex of a patient with Alzheimer's dise...

Time-lapse movie showing extensive dissemination of myoepithelial cells from P-cadherin null epithelium, with gradual loss of myoepithelial coverage. The cells are expressing td tomato as a membrane ...

Portion of a proximal convoluted tubule from a rat kidney with experimental hemoglobinuria. A mass of dense hemoglobin completely fills the tubule lumen and outlines the microvilli of the brush border...
