Brain cells, light micrograph
Brain cells. Fluorescence light micrograph of activated microglial cells (stained for membrane co-factor protein, yellow) and oligodendrocytes (stained for myelin basic protein, red). The main function of oligodendrites is the insulation of the axons in human nerve cells. Microglia are phagocytic macrophage white blood cells that are the main form of immune system in the central nervous system (CNS). Magnification: x40 when printed 10 centimetres wide

EDITORS COMMENTS
This print from Science Photo Library showcases the intricate beauty of brain cells under a fluorescence light micrograph. The image captures activated microglial cells, stained in a vibrant yellow hue to highlight their presence, alongside oligodendrocytes that appear in striking red due to the staining of myelin basic protein. Oligodendrocytes play a crucial role in our nervous system by insulating axons and ensuring efficient transmission of signals between nerve cells. On the other hand, microglia are phagocytic macrophage white blood cells that act as the primary defense mechanism within our central nervous system (CNS). Their function is akin to an immune system for our brains. The magnification level used for this print allows viewers to appreciate the intricate details of these remarkable cellular structures. It's fascinating how such minuscule components contribute to complex biological processes essential for human functioning. This image not only serves as a testament to the wonders of biology but also highlights its relevance in fields like neurology, genetics, and cytology. It offers insights into both developing and adult human systems while shedding light on biochemical interactions within our bodies. Science Photo Library has once again provided us with an awe-inspiring visual representation that sparks curiosity about the intricacies of life itself.
