Electron micrograph of B-lymphocyte blood cell
B-lymphocyte. Coloured scanning electron micrograph of a B-lymphocyte white blood cell. The cells surface is covered with tiny ridges and projections called microvilli, which help it bind to target proteins. B-cells account for 10% of the bodys lymphocytes. On encountering a foreign antigen, such as a bacterial surface protein, the immature B-cell either divides into a number of plasma cells, which produce antibodies that kill the invader, or it matures into a memory cell. Memory cells remain in the body for years, giving immunity to the original pathogen. Magnification x5500 at 6x7cm size. Magnification x2750 at 35mm size

EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the intricate details of a B-lymphocyte blood cell, captured through an electron microscope. The vibrant colors highlight the fascinating features of this white blood cell, which plays a crucial role in our immune system. The surface of the cell is adorned with numerous tiny ridges and projections known as microvilli, enhancing its ability to bind to target proteins. B-cells constitute approximately 10% of all lymphocytes in our body and are essential for defending against foreign invaders. When encountering a foreign antigen like a bacterial surface protein, an immature B-cell undergoes two possible transformations: it either divides into plasma cells that produce antibodies capable of eliminating the invader or matures into memory cells. Memory cells hold immense significance as they remain within our body for years, providing long-lasting immunity against specific pathogens encountered previously. This remarkable image captures these minute yet vital components that contribute to our immune defense system. With magnification levels reaching x5500 at 6x7cm size and x2750 at 35mm size, this photograph from Science Photo Library offers us an extraordinary glimpse into the microscopic world within us. It serves as a reminder of the incredible complexity and beauty found within every aspect of human anatomy while highlighting the importance of these remarkable B-lymphocyte blood cells in safeguarding our health.
