Mesenchymal Stem Cells with Lipid Vesicle

Title: Mesenchymal Stem Cells with Lipid Vesicle
Description: High-resolution confocal microscopy image with orthogonal x-z and y-z cross-sections of human mesenchymal stem cells following modification with biotinylated lipid vesicles conjugated to rhodamine-streptavidin. Lipid vesicles rapidly integrate into the cell membrane to provide functional moieties that can easily be conjugated to adhesive ligands for induction of a cell rolling response. (Green- Actin, Blue-Nucleus, Red-Rhodamine-streptavidin conjugated to the biotinylated lipid).
