me too! They seem to be retraction fibers that are then fragmenting into these small vesicles. It has been described in some migrating cells/cancer cells before. We are now inestigating it in the context of axon growth and guidance!

Yes, it is, I wrote it in the ALT text but somehow it I can't see it. SPY555-FastAct

It is showing off for sure! 🕺
Might be a piece of debris. Maybe a filopodium that still wants to party hard...

Thanks! I color-coded the stacks in Fiji using the fire LUT. You can find it under image>hyperstack. I found out that for data with multiple time points, you have to set time as z and z as time in re-order hyperstack function.
Cheers

Thanks! A minority of the total pool of commissural axons is labeled. In fact, around 50% of the dI1 interneuron subpopulation is labeled. I used the Atoh1 enhancer and in ovo electroporation to target them.
Cheers

done! :)

Given the fact that embryonic neurons are very sensitive to the phototoxicity of these kind of dyes, it is amazing that one can even combine them now!👌

thanks! no, that was actually the SPY650-FastAct 😉
