The images, which can be viewed together or invidually, depict the terminal stage of Meiosis I, the transition to prometaphase, prometaphase, metaphase, anaphase, and telophase. The two videos show Meiosis I and Meiosis II taking place. The meiosis images can be found at: http://cellimages.ascb.org/u?/p4041coll6,75. The Meiosis I video can be viewed at: http://cellimages.ascb.org/u?/p4041coll6,73. The Meiosis II video can be viewed at: http://cellimages.ascb.org/u?/p4041coll6,74.

This series demonstrates visually the process of phagocytes and macrophages ingesting bacteria and other foreign bodies. The items are 1) Phagocytosis Series (Historic) (1.)

These images, along with 13 supplementary items, provide a visual guide through the early decades (1951-1973) of lysosomal discovery. The authors describe the influence of de Duve, Claude, Palade, Novikoff, Holtzman, and others, and provide links to many research papers that cover this exciting period of cell biology innovation.

Some of the images show Palade's continued interest in ribosomes, which he discovered in 1955. Other historical discoveries depicted in the images include: the first description of tight junctions and the junctional complexes between epithelial cells from many tissues; the first electron microscopic description of glycogen deposits; a new method that resulted in more enriched Golgi fractions than could be obtained without the decrease in density provided by the lipoproteins; and demonstration that very low density lipoproteins are present in secretory vesicles comparable to those found in other systems. The new image sets are: Group of Lysosomes near the Plasma Membrane between two Hepatocytes Bile Canaliculus with Junctional Complexes between Neighboring Hepatocytes Glycogen Storage in Rat Liver Region of Rat Hepatocyte One Day after Birth Rough Endoplasmic Reticulum Showing Bound Ribosomes Golgi Region of Hepatocyte Containing Numerous Very Low Density Lipoproteins Hepatocyte Secretory Vesicles Filled with Very Low Density Lipoproteins Palade Cytoplasm Founders Mon, 08 Jan 2007 13:35:00 EST http://cellimages.ascb.org/u?/p4041coll1,110 cellimages@ascb.org http://www.cellpress.com/misc/page?page=landmarkpapers Arrangements have been made with Elsevier to allow the Image and Video Library to link, free of charge, to 12 research papers in Cell, Experimental Cell Research, and Journal of Molecular Biology. Previously, the 12 papers were available only through subscription. Landmark Papers Fri, 05 Jan 2007 11:26:00 EST http://www.cellpress.com/misc/page?page=landmarkpapers cellimages@ascb.org
