George E. Palade (2012) CIL:37227, neuron. CIL. Dataset

Transmission electron micrograph of nerve cell terminals on medulla dendrites. The body of the dendrite (lower part of image) contains aligned microtubules (neurotubule). Synapses are seem on the dendrite membrane.
Note that this very early (1954) micrograph is primarily of historical interest since it pre-dates glutaraldehye fixation which was introduced in the early 60's and is considered essential for adequate nerve tissue preservation. Examples of nerve tissue micrographs prepared in 1965 are CIL:37218, CIL:37219 and CIL:37220.

神经细胞末梢在延髓树突上的透射电子显微镜图像。树突的主体（图像下方部分）含有排列整齐的微管（神经微管）。突触在树突膜上可见。值得注意的是，这张极为早期的（1954年）显微照片主要具有历史价值，因为它早于60年代初引入的戊二醛固定法，而戊二醛固定法被认为对于神经组织的充分保存至关重要。1965年制备的神经组织显微照片的示例包括CIL:37218、CIL:37219和CIL:37220。图像由James D. Jamieson及耶鲁大学医学院细胞生物学系提供。
