LM of purkinje nerve cells in the cerebellum
Purkinje nerve cells. Light micrograph of a row of Purkinje nerve cells from the cerebellum of the human brain. Each Purkinje cell is composed of a flask-shaped cell body, from which branch numerous dendrites (upper frame). Purkinje cells are arranged between the junction of the molecular and granular layers of the cerebellum. Nerve impulses flow to the Purkinje cells through their dendrites. From here the message is passed on to the white matter deep in the cerebellum. The cerebellum is the largest part of the hindbrain, and is essential for the maintenance of muscle tone, balance, and muscle coordination. Magnification: x200 at 35mm size

17"x15" (43x38cm) Premium Frame
FSC real wood frame with double mounted 10x8 print. Double mounted with white conservation mountboard. Frame moulding comprises stained composite natural wood veneers (Finger Jointed Pine) 39mm wide by 21mm thick. Archival quality Fujifilm CA photo paper mounted onto 1mm card. Overall outside dimensions are 17x15 inches (431x381mm). Rear features Framing tape to cover staples, 50mm Hanger plate, cork bumpers. Glazed with durable thick 2mm Acrylic to provide a virtually unbreakable glass-like finish. Acrylic Glass is far safer, more flexible and much lighter than typical mineral glass. Moreover, its higher translucency makes it a perfect carrier for photo prints. Acrylic allows a little more light to penetrate the surface than conventional glass and absorbs UV rays so that the image and the picture quality doesn't suffer under direct sunlight even after many years. Easily cleaned with a damp cloth. Please note that, to prevent the paper falling through the mount window and to prevent cropping of the original artwork, the visible print may be slightly smaller to allow the paper to be securely attached to the mount without any white edging showing and to match the aspect ratio of the original artwork.

EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the intricate beauty of Purkinje nerve cells in the cerebellum, a vital part of the human brain. Each Purkinje cell is characterized by its flask-shaped cell body and numerous branching dendrites, as elegantly captured in this light micrograph. Situated between the molecular and granular layers of the cerebellum, these specialized cells play a crucial role in transmitting nerve impulses. Incoming messages flow through their dendrites before being relayed to the white matter deep within the cerebellum. This intricate network ensures smooth communication within our nervous system. The cerebellum itself holds immense significance as it constitutes the largest portion of our hindbrain. It serves essential functions such as maintaining muscle tone, balance, and coordination – all fundamental for seamless movement. At a magnification of x200 at 35mm size, this image allows us to appreciate both the complexity and delicate nature of these Purkinje cells. Their unique structure highlights their importance in facilitating efficient neural transmission. Science Photo Library has once again captured an awe-inspiring glimpse into our anatomy with this remarkable photograph. It serves as a reminder that even on a microscopic level, there is profound beauty hidden within our bodies' intricate systems.
