HeLa cells, light micrograph C017 / 8298
HeLa cells, multiphoton fluorescence micrograph (MFM). The cell nuclei, which contain the cells genetic information, are blue. Golgi bodies, which modify and package proteins, are orange. Microtubules, protein filaments that make up part of the cytoskeleton, are green. The cytoskeleton maintains the cells shape, allows some cellular mobility and is involved in intracellular transport. HeLa cells are a continuously cultured cell line of human cancer cells. They are immortal and so thrive in the laboratory. HeLa cells are widely used in biological and medical research

14"x12" (36x31cm) Antique Frame
Bevelled wood effect frame, card mounted, 10x8 archival quality photo print. Overall outside dimensions 14x12 inches (36x31cm). Environmentally and ozone friendly, the Polycore® moulding has the look of real wood, is durable and light and easy to hang. Biodegradable and made with non-chlorinated gases (no toxic fumes) it is efficient; producing 100 tons of polystyrene can save 300 tons of trees! Prints are glazed with lightweight, shatterproof, optical clarity acrylic (providing the same general protection from the environment as glass). The back is stapled hardboard with a sawtooth hanger attached. Note: To minimise original artwork cropping, for optimum layout, and to ensure print is secure, the visible print may be marginally smaller

EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases HeLa cells, a remarkable and extensively studied cell line derived from human cancer cells. The image, captured using a light microscope, reveals the intricate details of these immortal cells that thrive in laboratory settings. The blue hues highlight the cell nuclei, which house the genetic information crucial for cellular functions. In contrast, the vibrant orange color represents Golgi bodies – organelles responsible for modifying and packaging proteins within the cell. These proteins play vital roles in various biological processes. Green microtubules are another prominent feature depicted in this photograph. Composed of protein filaments, they form part of the cytoskeleton – a network that maintains cell shape and enables mobility while facilitating intracellular transport. HeLa cells have revolutionized both biological and medical research due to their unique properties and ability to continuously divide outside their natural environment. Their malignant nature makes them particularly valuable for studying cancer-related phenomena. This visually striking image not only offers insights into cytology but also serves as a reminder of the immense impact HeLa cells have had on fields such as oncology, immunofluorescent studies, and microbiology. It captures an extraordinary moment frozen in time – a testament to humanity's relentless pursuit of understanding life at its most fundamental level.
