Figure 326 from Chapter 13 (Cilia and Flagella) of 'The Cell' by Don W. Fawcett M.D. Cells of sense organs detecting vibration are provided with stiff surface projections, the size of cilia but lackin...

Scanning electron micrograph reveals microvilli on the surface of HeLa cells in culture. Image by Keith Porter. Figure 31 from Chapter 2 (Specializations of the Free Surface) of 'The Cell, 2nd Ed.' b...

This is one of four related images of F-pili (conjugative pili encoded by the F plasmid of E. coli) dynamics by live-cell imaging. There are 2 movie (.avi) files and 2 files (.tiff) from the movies. ...

This is Video S2 which corresponds to still images in top row of Figure 2D. It shows the spine dynamics of control neurons. Time-lapse confocal imaging was performed on DIV14 hippocampal neurons co-ex...

This is Video S3,which corresponds to still images in bottom row of Fig. 2D. It shows that knocking down levels of Myosin II B (MIIB) increases spine dynamics. Spines from MIIB knockdown neurons exten...

Electron micrograph of epithelial cells of the parotid gland of the gerbil, prepared by rapid freezing and freeze substitution. Microvilli and microplicae, which expand the extracellular surface alon...

A Purkinje neuron from the cerebellum of a 2 month old male C57BL/6 mouse, injected with Lucifer Yellow. The elaborate, highly branched dendritic arbor is revealed in this maximum projection image wh...
