Cellules HUVEC observées en microscopie à force atomique

3D view of HUVEC endothelial cells incorporating an elasticity map, observed using an atomic force microscope. By manipulating this type of cell, research scientists are notably studying infection by N. meningitidis bacteria and intoxication processes involving S. aureus EDIN or anthrax EF.
