Description
Coloured transmission electron micrograph (TEM) of a central nervous system (CNS) neuropil. Several cross sectioned dendrites (yellow) show microtubules, mitochondria and endoplasmic reticulum cisterns. Axons (blue) filled with synaptic vesicles make synapses (red) on these dendrites. Sheets of astrocytic processes (green) surround and isolate the synapses.
