compared to the control image, the golgi apparatus appears fragmented and smeared. an article describes the phenomenon of golgi dispersal due to taxol exposure. full text available.

wild type S. pombe after multiple days' exposure to hydroxyurea. the cells are elongated compared to the control, as their division is halted in the Rad3 pathway due to impaired DNA replication.

SH-SY5Y cells, a neuroblastoma cell line used in research.

plant cells of unknown origin, with their DNA dyed. can you find all the stages of mitosis?

anther cells of unknown origin, with their DNA dyed. the anther is the part of the stamen where pollen is formed.

NIH/3T3 cells, a cell line of mouse embryonic fibroblasts used in research.

cycloheximide interferes with protein synthesis. the cells were exposed to cycloheximide for 3 hours. the golgi appears intact and strongly labeled. it is reasonable to assume GM130's half life is longer than the exposure period, and that the disruption to its production did not affect its concentration and localization in the cell.
