Microtubules 🟢 protruding into the dynamic actin 🟣 network of a neuronal growth cone in DIV2 hippocampal neurons. @spirochrome.com SiR-Tubulin and SPY-FastActX working wonders on this #FluorescenceFriday

Imaging neurons quickly for 3min typically won't give you huge cell-wide cytoskeletal events, but you do get to capture fun little tugs and loops in the soma and neurites (as well as whatever the hell is going on in the bottom right).

Happy #FlourescenceFriday!

I've been lacking on #FluorescenceFriday the past month or two, but winning the annual MBF NeuroArt competition was a lovely surprise to end the week. Thank you @mbfbioscience.bsky.social for the recognition!

Zoomed in on the base of an axon looking at some funky actin dynamics for this #FluorescenceFriday

This place really is bumpin’… My first #FluorescenceFriday on Bluesky. Recycled, but a DIV4 rat hippocampal neuron expressing a probe for F-Actin and imaged on an LSM880 with Airyscan.
