About this work

Description

These cultured neural precursor cells have been treated with Fibroblast Growth Factor 2 (FGF2), which has diverted most of them, those with yellow or white nuclei, to become oligodendrocyte precursors. The red, branching cells have stayed on the neural pathway to become neurons.
