Fine Art Print : Simian AIDS viruses, TEM
Fine Art Prints from Science Photo Library
Simian AIDS viruses, TEM
Simian AIDS virus particles, coloured transmission electron micrograph (TEM). These virus particles (small, round) are bursting out of a cell (across bottom) after using the cell to replicate. They are simian immunodeficiency virus (SIV) particles, the simian (monkey) equivalent of HIV (human immunodeficiency virus) that causes AIDS (acquired immune deficiency syndrome) in humans. There are theories that HIV passed to humans from monkeys, chimpanzees or other primates. Both viruses attack the immune system, leaving the victim exposed to potentially fatal secondary infections

EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the intricate world of Simian AIDS viruses, captured through a coloured transmission electron micrograph (TEM). The image reveals small, round virus particles bursting out of a cell, which they have utilized for replication. These particular particles are known as simian immunodeficiency virus (SIV), the monkey equivalent of HIV that leads to AIDS in humans. The photograph sheds light on theories surrounding the origins of HIV, suggesting its transmission from monkeys, chimpanzees, or other primates to humans. Both SIV and HIV target and weaken the immune system, leaving individuals vulnerable to potentially life-threatening secondary infections. With its false-coloured presentation highlighting various aspects of these pathogens' biology and reproduction process, this image serves as an invaluable resource in fields such as medicine, virology, and pathology. It provides researchers with a closer look at how these viral agents operate within their host cells. By offering us a glimpse into the microscopic realm where viruses thrive and replicate themselves relentlessly, this print invites contemplation on our ongoing battle against infectious diseases. It underscores the importance of understanding these complex organisms in order to develop effective treatments and preventive measures. Captured by Science Photo Library's skilled photographers using advanced techniques like TEM microscopy, this visually stunning portrayal stands testament to humanity's ceaseless pursuit of knowledge about our own health and well-being.
