Feature image: Allaura Cone, PhD, Meredith Chambers, and Dirk Dittmer, PhD, in the UNC Department of Microbiology & Immunology and the UNC Lineberger Comprehensive Cancer Center, were recognized in 2023 for their image titled, “Endolysosomal Compartments in U-2 OS Cells,” fixed and stained with CD81 (cyan), LAMP1 (magenta), and Rhodamine-Phalloidin (yellow). Imaged at 100x on a confocal microscope, tetraspanin CD81 and Lysosome-associated membraine glycoprotein 1 (LAMP1) are important for the trafficking of extracellular vesicles throughout the cell.
