Spirit and Tranquil
microscope: Nikon Upright Microscope
description: The human retinal pigment epithelium (hRPE) cells that treated with Centrinone, a compound that inhibit the mature of centriole, lost the ability to form microtubule organization center, thus leads to a failure to form the spindle and to dividing; and the cells changed to multi-nuclear cells. Red: microtubule, Cyan: nuclear

Spiral of inhibitory neurons
microscope: Confocal Zeiss LSM700
description: Here shown is an organotypic hippocampal slice of a mouse brain, which was kept in culture for over 2 weeks before fixation. Labelled in blue are all cell bodies (DAPI), to show the outer contours of the slice. In green is the genetic labelling of GAD65-GFP, indicating a subset of inhibitory neurons that express this protein

Night of the globular waves
microscope: Leica DMI 6000 CS AFC (STED)
description: Spreading of breast cancer cells on a 2D surface. The image shows the cytoskeletal fibers of the cells which are polymers of globular proteins. Microtubules (red), F-actin (cyan), nuclei (blue).

Shooting Stars
microscope: TIRF Nikon Ti – Roper iLas-2 FRAP/Photoablation system
description: Image shows single frame of anti-parallel microtubule bundles reconstituted in vitro on a glass surface. The idea of this experiment was to create bundles of two anti-parallel microtubules by adding a microtubule bundling protein PRC1 (green). However, a little bit higher concentration of PRC1 produced bundles of multiple microtubules of similar size (depicted by red comets, marked by microtubule plus-end marker EB3)

My heart beats for science
microscope: Spinning Disc 1 Nikon-Roper ILAS PhotoAblation (Kruyt building)
description: This is a compilation of pictures to form a heart shape. The pictures show a zoom of a human induced-pluripotent stem cell-derived cardiomyocyte, which was transduced with lentiviral vectors to express a GFP-tagged microtubule plus-end marker (end-binding protein 3 (EB3)) and tagRFP-LifeAct; an actin marker. In cardiac cells the actin cytoskeleton forms contractile units named sarcomeres, which allow the cell to beat
