Cover Image:
High resolution confocal image of a cultured HeLa cell fluorescently labeled for microtubules (cyan) and counterstained to highlight the cell nucleus (red). Microtubules are one of the key components of the cytoskeleton and are involved in many cellular processes such a mitosis, cytokinesis, and vesicular transport. Digital filtering was used to highlight and intensify their structure. Olympus Fluoview FV1000 confocal imaging system on an IX81 platform.
