Opening Screen Picture: Fig. 11. Photomicrograph showing human CD133+ GBM cells injected into the mouse brain. Sections of paraffin-embedded brain obtained in a mouse injected with human CD133+ GBM cells were hybridized using both human (green) and mouse (red) pancentromeric probes. A FISH assay confirmed that human cells were successfully engrafted into the mouse brain. Original magnification 3 60. See Article 1 by Jane Bayani, Ajay Pandita, and Jeremy A. Squire
