Melendez Lab Photo Selected as Image of the Week by the Cell Image Library
http://www.cellimagelibrary.org/images/40361
This fluorescent micrograph is part of an image group displaying the morphological changes associated with a developing oligodendrocyte. The progression of images starts with CIL:40358 where cells display a relatively bipolar morphology to CIL:40359 where the actin cytoskeleton becomes very prominent to CIL:40360 where the actin coalesces and interlinks and finally there is CIL:40361 where one can observe the formation of a flattened lamellar structure which in vitro mimics the myelin sheet
