Summary

[edit]
Description
English: This is an invasive breast tumor, grown from invasive breast cancer cells in a matrix that mimics human breast tissue. The blue is a stain of the nucleus of the cell. The green is F-actin, which contributes to the structure and shape of the cell. The white/pink in the middle is Vimentin, which also contributes to the structure. Notice how the cells in the middle of the tumor have the most Vimentin. These might give these cells the ability to “lead the pack” and metastasize to other areas. Other Information: The image is a collapsed reconstruction of 58 z-stacks taken of the tumor, taken at 20x magnification with a Zeiss LSM 780 fluorescent microscope. Taken at Wayne State University, Detroit, MI.
