A 3D reconstruction of the cardiac outflow tract (OFT)(horizontal rotation) from a stage-16 wild-type embryo stained for Ladybird early (Lbe; blue), Tinman (Tin; red), and the DE-Cadherin Shotgun (Shg...

A 3D reconstruction of the cardiac outflow tract (OFT) region (horizontal and vertical rotation) from stage-16 wild-type embryo stained for Ladybird early (Lbe; blue) and Tinman (Tin; red). Heart-anch...

The final morphogenesis of the cardiac outflow tract (OFT) depends on coordinated cell-cell interactions among the heart tip, migrating heart-anchoring cells (HANCs) and the dorsally growing cardiac o...

A 3D reconstruction of the cardiac outflow tract (OFT) region (horizontal and vertical rotation) from stage-14 wild-type embryo stained for Tinman (Tin; red) and Msp300 (green). Tin staining reveals t...

A time-lapse movie showing the dorsal pouch formation and migration of heart-anchoring cells (HANCs) in the Drosophila embryo expressing ubi-DE-cad-GFP (Shg-GFP). Shg-positive HANCs corresponding to t...

The final morphogenesis of the cardiac outflow tract (OFT) depends on coordinated cell-cell interactions among the heart tip, migrating heart-anchoring cells (HANCs) and the dorsally growing cardiac o...

This image shows human cardiac microvascular endothelial cells forming tubes in Matrigel. Matrigel is a gelatinous protein mixture that encourages cells to demonstrate complex cellular behavior that i...

Transmission electron micrograph of the periphery of an atria mouse cardiac muscle. This micrograph shows how rich cardiac tissue is with mitochondria reflecting its greater dependence on cellular re...

Transmission electron micrograph of four longitudinally cut ventricle muscle fibers of mouse cardiac tissue. Muscle fibers are multinucleate celsl composed of myofibrils that contract when stimulated...

Transmission electron micrograph of a blood vessel in the atria of a mouse cardiac tissue. This image is a close up of a red blood cell in a blood vessel.
