Lymph node, TEM
Lymph node. Coloured transmission electron micrograph (TEM) of a section through the peripheral corona of a lymph nodule, showing numerous small lymphocyte white blood cells (dark). Lymphocytes are involved in the immune systems defence mechanisms, lymph system, and antibody production. These cells will migrate to blood vessels and circulate around the body when stimulate by the immune response. Magnification: x3000 when printed 10 centimetres wide

EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures the intricate beauty of a lymph node, revealing its hidden world through the lens of a transmission electron microscope (TEM). The image showcases a section through the peripheral corona of a lymph nodule, where numerous small lymphocyte white blood cells can be seen in dark hues. These remarkable cells play an essential role in our immune system's defense mechanisms, as well as antibody production and lymph system function. The magnification level of x3000 allows us to appreciate the incredible detail within this 10-centimeter-wide print. Each individual cell is meticulously captured, showcasing their unique structures and characteristics. From their nucleus to cytosol, every aspect is laid bare for examination. Lymphocytes are not confined solely to the lymph nodes; they possess the ability to migrate into blood vessels and circulate throughout our bodies when stimulated by immune responses. This dynamic process ensures that our immune system remains vigilant against potential threats. Steve Gschmeissner's expertise behind this photograph highlights his profound understanding of cell biology and haematology. Through his lens, we gain insight into both healthy cellular structures and potential abnormalities that may arise within them. This print serves as a testament to the marvels found within ourselves—an awe-inspiring reminder of the complexity that lies beneath our skin.
