Lymphocyte attacking cancer cell. Coloured scanning electron micrograph (SEM) of a lymphocyte white blood cell (white) attacking a cancer cell (pink). The cancer cell is shedding membrane vesicles from its surface. These vesicles can contain bioactive molecules that aid the spread of the cancer and its evasion from the immune system. Magnifcation: x6500 when printed at 10 centimetres tall.
