Fig. 6. High power images of myoblasts show NM2B knockdown greatly increases cell length after 36 hours of treatment. Aligned groups containing bipolar cells are present in all of the control conditions but, in NM2B-knockdown cells, the bipolar cells are highly elongated (see arrow) and there is less overlap between them. These images were taken using a x40 objective lens to enable visualisation of the highly elongated NM2B-knockdown cells.
