Scanning electron micrograph of the surface of a peritoneal mast cell from mouse shows undulating folds, and few microvilli. The membrane folds could be misinterpreted for microvilli if analyzed in t...

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...

Scanning EM of a 24 hr (prim-5) zebrafish embryo. Zebrafish were chemically fixed critically point dried, and sputter coated with gold/palladium. This image is part of a series taken by Bryan Crawfo...

Scanning EM of the somites (myotomes), of a 24 hr (prim-5) zebrafish embryo. Specimens were chemically fixed critically point dried, and sputter coated with gold/palladium. This image is part of a s...

Association of plectin with myosin II. A gelsolin-treated REF-52 cell immunogold labeled for plectin (10 nm). After actin depletion, intermediate filaments with plectin sidearms remain associated with...

Plectin sidearms on intermediate filaments labeled with plectin immuno-gold (10 nm) in REF-52 cells with actin removed by gelsolin treatment. Untreated control appears as CIL: 234044. Electron micr...

Association of plectin with MTs. Electron microscopy of gelsolin-treated REF-52 cells after immunogold (10 nm) labeling for plectin. Plectin forms bridges between microtubules and intermediate filamen...

Association of plectin with MTs. Electron microscopy of gelsolin-treated REF-52 cells after immunogold (10 nm) labeling for Tyr-tubulin. Plectin forms bridges between microtubules (MTs) and intermedia...

Scanning electron micrograph showing tentacles on the head of a Hydra viridis. Epithelial cells located at the base of the tentacle are in a flat, contracted state. Cell distal to the head of the H. v...

Platinum replica illustrating the cytoskeletal organization of dendritic spines from extracted 14 DIV neurons. This image shows branched actin filaments (cyan) in the neck of respective spines. This i...
