Confocal Images of Dorsal Root Ganglion Primary Cell Cultures
DRG neurons were stained with a mitochondrial marker (gray, yellow and red) and clumped mitochondria in the soma (yellow) and axons (red) were compared between control and 6 h high glucose
3D z-series images were taken on an Olympus FV500 confocal microscope and puncta were identified with Volocity software
Primary DRG cultures were made in the Laboratory of Eva L. Feldman, M.D., Ph.D., Department of Neurology, University of Michigan
Staining and images were done by Stephen I. Lentz, Ph.D., Laboratory Director of MIAC, University of Michigan
Isolated Primary Dorsal Root Ganglia Neuron In Vitro
Primary Dorsal Root Ganglia cell cultures from embryonic day 15 rats were fixed and stained with fluorescent markers for neurofilament (green), mitochondria (red) and cell nucleus (blue). The 3D Fluorescent image (bottom) was acquired on an Olympus FV500 confocal microscope and then rendered and visualized with Volocity software.
