Researchers have determined that the TFIID protein complex controls the stem cell genes that repair skeletal muscle. This image shows differentiated human skeletal muscle fibers (myotubes, in green) protecting the MyoD protein (colored in red), which cooperates with TFIID to transform muscle stem cells into muscle tissue. Cell nuclei are stained blue. This discovery could help develop strategies that activate stem cells to repair muscles degenerated by aging or diseases like muscular dystrophy and cancer.

This colorized transmission electron micrograph (TEM) of an ultra-thin specimen revealed some of the ultrastructural morphologic features seen in 1918 influenza virus virions. The prominent surface projections on the virions are composed of either the hemagglutinin, or neuraminidase type of glycoproteins. Composed of what looked like dots or tubules, was a dense envelope known as a capsid, which surrounded each virion's nucleic acid constituents.

Here we see Mycobacterium tuberculosis in a sputum smear is stained using fluorescent acid-fast stain. M. tuberculosis is an acid-fast bacterium (AFB), and is therefore, undetectable when stained using a Gram stain technique. However, using this method, the M. tuberculosis bacteria glow yellow under ultraviolet light microscopy.

This is a microscopic view of lab-grown human muscle bundles, colored to show the patterns created by the basic muscle units and their associated proteins (red), which are a hallmark of human muscle. These lab-grown human muscle tissues allow researchers to test new drugs and study diseases in muscle tissue outside the human body.

The image was used to demonstrate the unique imaging capabilities of one of our newest laser scanning microscopes and is of a wildtype (normal) mouse retina in the optic fiber layer. This layer is responsible for relaying information from the retina to the brain and was fluorescently stained to reveal the distribution of glial cells (green), DNA and RNA in the cell bodies of the retinal ganglion neurons (orange) and their optic nerve fibers (red ), and actin in endothelial cells surrounding a prominent branching blood vessel (blue).

This image shows the restoration of dystrophin (stained green) in Duchenne muscular dystrophy (DMD) muscle cells derived from human induced pluripotent stem cells. DMD is caused by mutations in the DMD gene that affect the production of dystrophin, a protein involved in muscle cell membrane structure. Researchers used CRISPR/Cas9 gene editing technology to correct a mutation, resulting in dystrophin restoration. This technology could be therapeutic in up to 60% of DMD patient mutations. Nuclei in the muscle cells are stained blue and the contractile protein myosin is stained red.
