Anterior pituitary gland, TEM
Anterior pituitary gland. Transmission electron micrograph (TEM) of a section through cells of the anterior pituitary. The anterior pituitary, or adenohypophysis, is the part of the pituitary gland that secretes hormones into the blood. It regulates several physiological processes including stress, growth, reproduction and lactation. Magnification: x2, 000 when printed 10 centimetres tall

EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the intricate structure of the anterior pituitary gland, as seen through a transmission electron microscope (TEM). The anterior pituitary, also known as adenohypophysis, plays a vital role in our body's endocrine system by secreting hormones into the bloodstream. With a magnification of x2,000 when printed at 10 centimeters tall, this image reveals the remarkable details of cells within this gland. The anterior pituitary gland is responsible for regulating various physiological processes such as stress response, growth, reproduction, and lactation. Through its secretory function and hormonal regulation, it influences crucial aspects of our biology. This histological section provides us with an insight into the cellular composition and organization that underlies these essential functions. Displayed in monochrome tones to emphasize its structural features without distraction, this photograph captures the complexity of organelles within these specialized cells. It serves as a visual testament to the fascinating world of cell biology and cytology. Science Photo Library brings us yet another remarkable scientific image that not only educates but also inspires awe for the intricacies of life itself.
