Ultrastructure of elastofibroma [PDF]
An elastofibroma from a 69-year-old white man was studied by light and electron microscopy. The lesion was comprised of abundant collagen fibers and numerous randomly disposed masses of amorphous elastinophilic material. Ultrastructurally, this material appeared to be derived from a markedly dense, finely fibrillar precursor secreted by fibroblasts and

The Role of Reactive Oxygen Species (ROS) in the Formation of Extracellular Traps (ETs) in Humans
Extracellular traps (ETs) are reticulate structures of extracellular DNA associated with antimicrobial molecules. Their formation by phagocytes (mainly by neutrophils: NETs) has been identified as an essential element of vertebrate innate immune defense.

Follicular complex may predict reproductive tactics in siluriform fishes
In this study, we evaluated the morphology and morphometry of the layers that make up the follicular complex surrounding mature oocytes in the six fish species Auchenipterichthys longimanus, Ageneiosus ucayalensis, Hypophthalmus marginatus, Baryancistrus

Plasmolysis: Loss of Turgor and Beyond
Plasmolysis is a typical response of plant cells exposed to hyperosmotic stress. The loss of turgor causes the violent detachment of the living protoplast from the cell wall. The plasmolytic process is mainly driven by the vacuole.

Ultrastructure Organization of Human Trabeculae Assessed by 3D sSAXS and Relation to Bone Microarchitecture. [PDF]
Although the organization of bone ultrastructure, i.e. the orientation and arrangement of the mineralized collagen fibrils, has been in the focus of research for many years for cortical bone, and many models on the osteonal arrangement have been proposed,

Endocytosis and Digestion in Carnivorous Pitcher Plants of the Family Sarraceniaceae
Highly evolved carnivorous plants secrete digestive enzymes for degradation of trapped animals and absorb whole macromolecules from their prey by means of endocytosis.

Ultrastructure of a craniopharyngioma [PDF]
A craniopharyngioma removed at surgery was examined by light and electron microscopy. The tumor consisted of both solid and cystic components. The cells lining the cysts, as well as those forming the solid masses, displayed desmosomes, tonofilaments, keratohyalin granules, and keratinization identical to those seen in the epidermis.

Bryophytes are widely used to monitor air quality. Due to the lack of a cuticle, their cells can be compared to the roots of crop plants. This study aimed to test a hypothetical relation between metal tolerance and cell shape in biomonitoring mosses ...

Ultrastructure expansion microscopy in Trypanosoma brucei. [PDF]
The recently developed ultrastructure expansion microscopy (U-ExM) technique allows us to increase the spatial resolution within a cell or tissue for microscopic imaging through the physical expansion of the sample.
