 Figure:
The morphology of rat ovarian surface epithelial cells (ROSE-179 cells)
after 24 h of culture under serum-free conditions. The cells were
stained with hydroethidine and observed under fluorescent optics to
visualize the nuclei. Numerous apoptotic cells are observed as evidenced
by their condensed and fragmented nuclei. These cells are also shrunken
and have reduced cell contact. The nuclei of normal cells are lightly
stained and can be seen in the background. (A X 300). Photo taken from:
Trolice MP, Pappalardo A and Peluso JJ: Basic fibroblast growth factor
and N-cadherin maintain rat granulosa cell and ovarian surface
epithelial cell viability by stimulating the tyrosine phosphorylation of
the fibroblast growth Factor receptors.
