Coloured transmission electron micrograph (TEM) of olfactory bulb neuropil. A large dendrite (blue) of a mitral cell with microtubules, mitochondria and endoplasmic reticulum cisterns make a reciprocal dendrodendritic synapses with a small dendrite of a granule cell (red). Synaptic vesicles can be seen on both sides of synapses. Sheets of astrocytic processes (green) surround and isolate the synapses.
