Electron micrograph of a healthy cell (A) and apoptotic cellular profile (B–F) from the neuroepithelium 10 h following BrdU treatment (100 µg/g). (C) Ultrastructural morphology of an apoptotic cell. The masses of compact chromatin display a high electron density and a homogeneous texture. They are associated with an intact nuclear envelope. (D–F) Typical electron-dense apoptotic bodies. (D–E) Examples of apoptotic bodies releasing their contents into the cytoplasm. Copyright © 2021, Wiley. Adapted with permission from Rodríguez-Vázquez, L.; Martí, J. (2000).
