(anatomy) A neurofibril

Rat brain cells grown in tissue culture and stained, in green, with an antibody to neurofilament subunit NF-L, which reveals a large neuron. The culture was stained in red for α-internexin, which in this culture is found in neuronal stem cells surrounding the large neuron. Antibodies, culture processing and image from EnCor Biotechnology Inc..

(anatomy) A neurofibril

A formalin fixed and paraffin embedded section of human cerebellum stained with an antibody to neurofilament light, NF-L revealed with a brown dye, cell nuclei are revealed with a blue dye. Nuclear rich region at left is granular layer, region at right is molecular layer. The antibody binds processes of basket cells, parallel fiber axons, the perikarya of Purkinje cells and various other axons.

(anatomy) A neurofibril

Antibody stain against neurofilament (green) and Ki 67 (red) in a mouse embryo 12.5 days after fertilization. The cells expressing neurofilaments are in the dorsal root ganglia shown in green while proliferating cells are in the ventricular zone in the neural tube and colored red.
