Pseudopods jut out from this polymorphonuclear leucocyte of the guinea pig to enable amoeboid motility. Organelles are initially excluded as the pseudopod first forms, but they flow in as the pseudopo...

Scanning electron micrograph of a 3T3 cell growing in culture. Complexity and diversity of structure across the cell surface is apparent in the this image that s courtesy of Susan Brown. Figure 48 fr...

Multiple NIH-3T3 fibroblasts undergoing 1D fibrillar migration. Cells were plated on polyvinyl alchohol (PVA) coated coverslips that had been patterned by ablation with a 2 photon confocal microscope....

Transition from 1D to 2D migration: regulation of cellular phenotype by ECM topography. Formation of multiaxial lamellae and cell spreading during the transition from 1D to 2D migration. 2D matrices w...

A high resolution image that shows a dikinetid which is set in a shallow basin in the cell surface. The pair of basal bodies have a proximal cartwheel and a dense septum (not found in most bbs) just d...

A high resolution cross section showing only one basal body in two different dikinetids. Cross sections of overlapping microtubular ribbons arising from the dikinetids are seen in the ridges next to t...

Phase contrast microscopy of living bone marrow derived macrophages. These cells are highly motile and the snapshot catches lamella and ruffles where the cells are protruding and phase dense organell...

A high resolution image of the transition from basal bodies to cilia within a portion of one of the oral membranelles of Euplotes. Parasomal sacs occur between the rows of basal bodies although these ...

A high resolution image of an individual cirrus of Euplotes with 91 cilia/basal body complexes. The transition from basal body to cilium can be followed from right to left in each row. Small vesicles,...
