Marquage de neurones enrichis en DHA issus de cellules souche de cerveau de rat. Ces cellules sont responsables de la transmission de l’influx nerveux. Le DHA, acide gras oméga 3 fortement présent dans le cerveau, favorise la croissance des prolongements neuronaux, et par conséquent la communication inter-cellulaire. Les noyaux des cellules sont colorés en bleu, et les protéines du cytosquelette en vert (associer avec les images PCD9101-IMG0121.PCD et PCD9101-IMG0122.PCD).,. © INRA, HEBERDEN Christine
