Cell division, fluorescent micrograph

Cell division. Immunofluorescent light micrograph of a human epithelial cell (centre) during the interphase stage of mitosis. Mitosis is the cycle of replication and division by which new body cells are formed. Here, the chromosomes of the parent cell (blue) have begun to duplicate and pair up, and the microtubules (green) have formed. The microtubules will pull the chromosome pairs apart to opposite poles of the cell, in a process called cytokinesis. When the cell has split, two identical daughter cells are formed

EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the intricate process of cell division in a human epithelial cell during the interphase stage of mitosis. The image, captured using immunofluorescent light microscopy, reveals the remarkable complexity and beauty inherent in our body's cellular machinery. In this snapshot of early mitotic cycle, we witness the chromosomes (depicted in blue) beginning to duplicate and pair up within the parent cell's nucleus. Simultaneously, microtubules (shown in green), like delicate fibers, have formed and are preparing to separate these chromosome pairs to opposite poles of the cell through cytokinesis. The significance of this moment lies in its contribution to our understanding of normal physiology and healthy cellular function. Mitosis is an essential biological process responsible for generating new body cells with identical genetic material. Through meticulous replication and division, two identical daughter cells will emerge from this single entity. Science Photo Library has masterfully captured not only the scientific aspects but also the artistic appeal found within this microscopic world. This mesmerizing composition invites us into a realm where genetics meet fluorescence, cytoplasm meets cytology, and biology intertwines with cellular dynamics. As we gaze upon this extraordinary image print by Science Photo Library, we gain insight into one of nature's most fundamental processes – cell division – reminding us once again that even at such minuscule scales, there exists immense beauty waiting to be discovered.
