LM11
Hairy Pancreatic Cancer Cell

microscope: ZEISS LSM700
description: F-actin staining of strongly adherent Pancreatic Ductal Adenocarcinoma cells
Author: Joep Sprangers

LM14
Sun is a droplet

microscope: Nikon upright Ni microscope
description:
Author: Chao Yang

LM02
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

LM07
Actin everywhere!

microscope: Leica TCS SP8 STED 3X, 93x/1.30 glycerol objective
description: STED image of actin in an human intestinal organoid resolving individual microvilli, depth encoded Z projection
Author: Wilco Nijenhuis

LM06
Knockin’ in memories

microscope: Zeiss LSM700
description: CRISPR knock-in for PSD95, in the hippocampal formation of mouse brain
Author: Arthur Jong

LM05
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

LM04
Phoenix

microscope: Olympus BX60 Fluorescence microscope
description: TH and DsRed double staining in brain slices of rats treated with DREADD technology
Author: Judith Hendriks

LM08
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).

LM10
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)

LM09
Neuronal sunflowers

microscope: Confocal microscope LSM 880.
description: Motor neurons were derived from human induced pluripotent stem cells and stained with neuronal markers
Author: Svetlana Pasteuning-Vuhman

LM01
Neuron psychedelia
microscope: Nikon spinning disk
description: Time color-coded dynamics of actin and lysosomes in young hippocampal neurons
Author: Mithila Burute
