Last week we did some neuronal imaging for a class that I'm taking this semester and just look at that!!! They're so beautiful 😍
This was a MAP2 staining to observe neuronal growth throughout primary cell culture and honestly I just love working with fluorescent markers!
Barrier Breakthrough
Your body contains hundreds of nerves but they can’t all regenerate. After injury, peripheral nerves replace damaged sections but nerves in your central nervous system (CNS) can’t. Instead, brain cells called astrocytes cordon off damaged tissue (lesions) to help preserve healthy nerve tissue. These lesions form a barrier, preventing regeneration. Transplants of neural progenitor cells (NPCs), made from stem cells, may help. Researchers investigate by tagging NPCs and transplanting them, via a hydrogel, into uninjured or injured mouse CNS. RNA analysis revealed NPCs in uninjured mice matured into cells resembling healthy astrocytes, while NPCs in injured mice matured into cells resembling ‘reactive’ astrocytes, which arise after injury to partition off lesions. Fluorescence microscopy of injured CNS (pictured) revealed that adding NPCs (right) reduced lesion size (magenta) and helped bridge lesions via astrocytes (green) compared with injured CNS without NPCs (left) or only hydrogel (middle). The injury microenvironment, therefore, directs NPCs towards wound repair.

Today was a very special day for me, my first poster presentation!!
Considering that it was an international neuroscience conference I can say that I was a bit nervous but everything turned out to be a great experience! Therefore I advise you guys to persue your academic dreams and just go for it! It was a great opportunity for networking and learning! I'm so glad that I did it!
🧠🤍
Daily cell culture life be like:
Astrocytes are so 🥺🤏🏼

Hello there! Using my header to introduce myself!
I’m a biology undergraduate student and I work as an intern in a biochem lab focused on glialtoxicity and neuroprotection! I mostly study astrocytes and their fisiopathology when in presence of some compounds! Hope you guys enjoy!! 🧠🤍
(Out of curiosity: this is a pic of a sample during an RNA extraction protocol, here we can see in pink the organic phase, a DNA layer and the inorganic phase at last)
