More information:

Dendritic cell, coloured scanning electron micrograph (SEM). This cell is a cell type found in the human immune system. Dendritic cells are a type of macrophage, and one of their functions is to recognise and engulf foreign cells in a process that is called phagocytosis. Dendritic cells are being studied for use in vaccinating against certain forms of cancer. Magnification: x4000 when printed at 10 centimetres across.

RFPR1RK0–Dendritic cell. Coloured scanning electron micrograph (SEM) of a protective cell of the human immune system known as a dendritic cell. The long projections seen on the cell's surface are 'feet' to help it move. These cells process foreign antigens which then act like an alarm signal, alerting other immune cells of the body to the infection. Dendritic cells found in the upper layer of the skin (the epidermis) are known as histiocytes or Langerhans cells. In the central nervous system they are known as microglia, and in the liver as Kupffer cells. Magnification: x3000 when printed at 10cm wide.
