Figure 6

Micrographs of two MC3T3-E1 osteoblast cells after overnight incubation with and without internalized nickel nanowires (mag. ×40). A) Phase contrast picture of both osteoblast adherent cells. (Internalized nanowire highlighted in red) B) Living cell staining: double staining with Lyso-tracker (red) and Mito-tracker (green). The two cells show a completely different cytoplasm internal activity. C) Mitochondria only staining on both cells with localized activity of the cell with nanowires around lamellipodia and nanowires loci. D) Lysosomes only staining. Lysosomes are particularly localized around the bent nanowires.
