STEM CELL IMAGES
Stem-cell-derived neurons, made from patients with Alzheimer’s disease, provide a new tool for
unraveling the mechanisms underlying the neurodegenerative disease. In this image, DNA is
shown in blue, dendrites and cell bodies in red and endosomal markers Rab5 and EEA1 in green
and orange, respectively. Larry Goldstein/UCSD

Two neurospheres (clusters of brain cells) derived from human induced pluripotent stem cells
send neuronal processes (green) to connect to each other. The red indicate the nuclei of cells..
