Primary neuron and Schwann cell culture

Primary neuron and Schwann cell culture, isolated from rat dorsal root ganglia in the spine, showing the outgrowth of axons from neuronal cell bodies (labelled for the neuron-specific protein beta III tubulin, green) and the presence of Schwann cells (labelled for the Schwann cell-specific protein S100beta, red) on a polystyrene substrate. – Mehrie Behbehani, University of Sheffield
