Description
This is IMAGE #1 (day 1) of a developing neuron from the optic tectum of an albino Xenopus laevis tadpole CNS, stage 47. The cell was imaged daily over 3 days and shows the development of the dendritic arbor and axon over time. The cell was transfected with in vivo electroporation of plasmid DNA encoding eGFP ~24 hours before the image was acquired. The intact, living tadpole was anesthetized, positioned under a glass coverslip and this image was taken directly through its transparent skin using a custom built two-photon microscope.
