Premium Framed Print : Stem cell gene expression

Stem cell gene expression
Stem cell gene expression. Gene expression colormap for blood and neural stem cells. All cells contain a complete copy of an organisms genetic information in the form of DNA (deoxyribonucleic acid). But in each different cell type only certain genes are switched on (expressed), while others remain inactive. Some genes are expressed in all cells. This colormap shows genes that have a higher expression rate in neural stem cells than blood stem cells as green and those that have a lower expression rate red. Stem cells are multipotent cells that can differentiate into a number of different cell types. Neural stem cells may become neurons (nerve cells) or glial cells (support cells). Blood stem cells may become red blood cells, white blood cells or platelets

31"x27" (79x69cm) Premium Frame
FSC real wood frame with double mounted 24x20 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 31x27 inches (787x685mm). 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 from Science Photo Library showcases the intricate world of stem cell gene expression. In this mesmerizing image, a gene expression colormap is used to illustrate the variations between blood and neural stem cells. Each cell in our body contains a complete set of genetic information encoded in DNA, but only specific genes are activated or "expressed" in different cell types. The colormap employs vivid colors to represent the varying levels of gene expression. Genes that have a higher rate of expression in neural stem cells are depicted as vibrant green, while those with lower rates appear as striking red hues. Stem cells possess remarkable multipotent capabilities, meaning they can differentiate into various specialized cell types. Neural stem cells hold the potential to develop into either neurons (nerve cells) or glial cells (supporting cells), contributing to the complex functioning of our nervous system. On the other hand, blood stem cells have the ability to transform into red and white blood cells or platelets, vital components for maintaining our overall health. This extraordinary visual representation not only highlights the fascinating biology behind gene expression but also emphasizes its significance in understanding human development and disease progression. It serves as a testament to ongoing advancements in genetics research and biotechnology that continue to unravel the mysteries within our own bodies.
