Fig. 2

Primary cell culture from embryonic rat hearts: freshly isolated myocardial cells were either analyzed as cocultures or further purified as described before [30] to result in either myocyte-enriched or myocyte-depleted cultures. Overview images of day 3 cultures are shown. Cardiomyocytes were distinguished from non-myocyte cells by presence of the sarcomere-specific α-actinin (red). Actin was labelled in green and nuclei in blue. All images represent stitched tile images to clarify the quality of the purification in the overview. Scale bars: 100 µm
