Osteocyte bone cell, SEM C016 / 9025
Osteocyte bone cell. Coloured scanning electron micrograph (SEM) of an osteocyte bone cell (blue) surrounded by bone tissue (pink). Osteocytes are osteoblasts (bone-producing cells) that have become trapped within bone cavities (lacunae, depressions in bone). They produce and secrete the organic matrix of the bone (osteoid). As soon as osteoid is formed, calcium salts crystallise inside it to form hard, mineralised bone. Magnification: x4000, when printed 10 centimetres wide

EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the intricate beauty of an osteocyte bone cell, as captured by Steve Gschmeissner through a scanning electron microscope. The vibrant colors highlight the delicate nature of this essential component of our skeletal system. The image depicts an osteocyte bone cell (blue) surrounded by bone tissue (pink), providing a glimpse into the complex structure that makes up our bones. Osteocytes are specialized cells derived from osteoblasts, responsible for producing and secreting the organic matrix of the bone known as osteoid. Trapped within tiny cavities called lacunae, these osteocytes play a crucial role in maintaining healthy bones. They diligently secrete and maintain the integrity of the organic matrix until calcium salts crystallize within it, resulting in mineralized and hardened bone. At a magnification level of x4000 when printed 10 centimeters wide, this photograph allows us to appreciate the intricacies of this microscopic world. It serves as a reminder that even at such small scales, there is immense complexity and beauty to be found within our bodies. This stunning image not only highlights the wonders of biology but also emphasizes how vital understanding these processes is for medical research and advancements in treating various skeletal disorders.
