Tubulin, F-Actin, and DNA Distribution in HeLa Cells
The HeLa cell* culture shown in this confocal image was labeled with mouse anti-alpha-tubulin primary antibodies followed by goat anti-mouse secondary antibodies conjugated to Alexa Fluor 488. In addition, the specimen was stained with Alexa Fluor 546 conjugated to phalloidin and TO-PRO-3, targeting the filamentous actin network and cell nuclei, respectively.
*Although it became one of the most important cell lines in medical research, it’s imperative that we recognize Henrietta Lacks’ contribution to science happened without her consent. This injustice, while leading to key discoveries in immunology, infectious disease, and cancer, also raised important conversations about privacy, ethics, and consent in medicine.
