An immunostained sample of bone marrow in mice was acquired in 3D confocal microscopy with 63x magnification. A maximum intensity projection of this 3D image is shown here. The yellow signal corresponds to GFP-CXCL12 expression, mainly by some reticular mesenchymal cells. Immunostained collagen fibers were also detected and are represented in cyan in the image. Data was acquired on 25-05-16.
Interior cavity of a bone as seen by 3D microscopy as seen from the position that a cell occupies. This technique allows the observation of an important cellular population (yellow) which forms part of the tissue structure, and how they intermingle with collagen fibers (cyan), together forming a fascinating network inside our bones. With these representation methods we can gain insight into the microarchitecture of the bone marrow and the nature of the blood cell production. ¦ Image#1_115
