Metal Prints from Science Photo Library
Immunofluorescent LM of natural killer blood cells
Natural killer cell. Immunofluorescent light micrograph of human Natural Killer (NK) cells. The nucleus of each cell is blue, with the cytoplasm proteins stained green, yellow and red. Natural killer cells are a type of white blood cell known as T-lymphocytes. As part of the bodys immune response mechanism, NK cells have the ability to destroy virus-infected cells & tumour cells. On contact with the surface of a tumour cell, the NK cell recognizes certain proteins called antigens, which activate its cell-killing mechanism. Immunofluorescence uses antibodies to attach fluorescent dyes to specific molecules within cells. Magnification: x624 at 6x4.5cm size

EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the intricate beauty of natural killer blood cells, also known as Natural Killer (NK) cells. In this immunofluorescent light micrograph, the nucleus of each cell appears in a mesmerizing shade of blue, while the cytoplasm proteins are vividly stained in green, yellow, and red hues. NK cells belong to a special type of white blood cell called T-lymphocytes and play a crucial role in our body's immune response mechanism. These remarkable cells possess the extraordinary ability to eliminate virus-infected cells and tumor cells from our system. When an NK cell comes into contact with the surface of a tumor cell, it recognizes specific proteins known as antigens that activate its potent cell-killing mechanism. The technique used to capture this stunning image is immunofluorescence, which employs antibodies labeled with fluorescent dyes to target particular molecules within cells. The resulting visual spectacle provides scientists with valuable insights into cellular structures and functions. With a magnification level of x624 at 6x4.5cm size, this photograph allows us to appreciate the intricacy and complexity present within our own bodies on a microscopic scale. It serves as a powerful reminder of the incredible defense mechanisms that exist within us all – protecting us against harmful invaders and maintaining our overall health and well-being.
