3D reconstruction of Drosophila melanogaster adult gut; in flies, it is similar to mammals in both structure and function. Here, intestinal stem cells (ISCs) and enteroblasts (EBs) are labelled with GFP in green. These cells are found in pairs because ISCs are dividing to generate one ISCs and one EB. The rest of the epithelium contains enteroendocrine cells and enterocytes. The gut is surrounded by F-actin rich muscles, stained in red. Nuclei in blue.

Studying cancer cell spreading: a zebrafish embryo implanted with a tumour, shown in red. The small red dots (metastatic cells) spreading from the initial tumour will enable the formation of new cancers in different parts of the body.

Electron micrograph: oral squamous cell carcinoma cells. Dogma states EMT is the driver of invasion and metastasis. This image shows two invading cells invading cohesively that have not undergone EMT. Invasion requires degradation of collagen matrix, confirmed by careful observation and this imaging.

Electron micrograph of an oral squamous carcinoma cell in a migration assay. By looking at the front of the cell this image revealed the complex response of a cell under going directed migration. The changes in the membrane protrusions seem to indicate a polar response possibly to a soluble agent.

Human colorectal adenomas contain clones (groups of cells descended from the same genetic ancestor). Immunofluorescent staining for cytochrome c oxidase (green) reveals a patch of mutant crypts within the tumor (unstained). This within-tumor clone originates from a single tumor stem cell. The mutant patch contains differentiated neuroendocrine cells (red), showing that the tumor stem cell is capable of producing mature cell types. Image by Dr Laura Gay Inspiration, Human, Crypt
