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...

Lamellae of cytopharynx in the opisthe of a dividing cell. This cytopharynx is not yet functional and lacks most of the medium dense vesicles that accumulate between the lamellae. Toxicysts are presen...

High resolution image of Didinium (non-dividing) has a massive cytopharynx at its anterior end that takes the shape of a cone-shaped proboscis when closed. This cytopharynx contains numerous lamellae ...

Electron micrograph of paired helical filaments in the cell body of a 0.25 um thick section through a cortical pyramidal neuron from the brain of a patient with Alzheimer's disease. The specimen was p...

An image of the pellicle of Didinium, in cross section of a non-dividing cell, has a plasma membrane with a distinct glycocalyx on its external surface and a flattened alveolar sac system. Under the a...

Didinium nasutum. A tangential view of the surface of a non-dividing cell shows several ribbons of microtubules between the alveolar sac and the epiplasm. The thick fibrous layer associated with the e...

Another view of the cytopharynx but in a dividing Didinium. This cytopharynx is in the proter (anterior) daughter cell. The lamellae, each consisting of a set of perpendicularly arranged microtubules ...

A view of the cytopharynx and its nascent food vacuole forming region. The flattened pharyngeal vesicles that may contain monolayers or bilayers of lipids seem to be equivalent to the discoidal vesicl...

Didinium (non-dividing) has a massive cytopharynx at its anterior end that takes the shape of a cone-shaped proboscis when closed. This cytopharynx contains numerous lamellae composed of sets of micro...
