Cultured human mesenchymal stem cells stained live for mitochondria (MitoTracker Deep Red, purple), and subsequently fixed with 4% formaldehyde and stained for nuclei (DAPI, blue), integrin β2 subunit (anti-CD29, green), and F-actin filament (phalloidin Alexa 546, yellow). Images were captured on a Nikon Eclipse TE300 inverted fluorescent microscope with 20× objective, monochromatic Spot Insight2 digital camera, and Semrock panel of Brightline fluor filter cubes. Four separate images with preassigned colors were merged into a single full-color image using Spot Advanced imaging software.
