Interested in how the cytoskeleton controls cell morphology and function; yes to microscopy.

Happy Friday! Here to bring a bit of brightness to your day are a few images by Julissa Burgos, one of our graduate students in the Tyska lab here at Vanderbilt. Gorgeous!! π¬

π₯ Quick thread on some stunning actin filament swirlsπͺοΈ spotted under platinum replica EM, often forming nest-like structures around caveolaeπ

Also Monday at #cellbio2024! Julissa (@yuyi106.bsky.social) will present her studies on the role of an I-BAR protein (IRTKS) in the pathogenic mechanism of Enterohemorrhagic E. coli π¦ π§«π¬ P2352. B677. @vucellimaging.bsky.social
This one is for the holiday season
Have you always wondered how microvilli form? Where DOES that actin come from to form the core bundle? Come to the #BuildingTheCell (Part 1) subgroup tomorrow morning at 8:45 to find out! Room 29C. #CellBio2025

Happy #FluorescenceFriday! These are polarized epithelial cells with microvilli on their apical surface! Captured using the #Nikon NSPARC, and color-coded by depth #actin #microscopy @tyskalabactual.bsky.social
This is couple of years old since I rarely have time to sit at a scope these days but I was inspired by the end of year #FluorescenceFriday posts on hear and thought I should drop on yβall my Eye of Sauron, aka a mouse oocyte containing nuclear actin filaments #actin #meiosis #oocytes
Also, also on Monday at #cellbio2024 I get to present Oliviaβs (@operkins.bsky.social) unexpected discoveries on the link between clathrin-mediated endocytosis and the growth of epithelial microvilli π€―
