Fluorescent Microscopy of Mouse Embryonic Neurons and Astrocytes

Caption

This fluorescent microscopy image shows embryonic mouse neurons (green), astrocytes (red), and cell nuclei (blue). University of Tokyo researchers in the lab of Professor Yukiko Gotoh study the differentiation and development of neural stem cells. Their most recent research publication (DOI: 10.1016/j.devcel.2018.11.018) identifies different control mechanisms for the polycomb repressive complex 1 protein at different stages of development.
