Aggregate morphology. (a) Mixed and coated aggregates. Fluorescent and light microscopy. Scale bar 200 μm. (b) Mixed aggregate structure. Confocal microscopy. Scale bar 100 μm for upper row; scale bar 50 μm for bottom row. (c) Coated aggregate morphology. Left image is DP spheroid before coating, and middle and right images are coated aggregates. Dashed lines show the borderline between DP aggregate and KCs. Confocal microscopy. Scale bar 50 μm for left and right image and scale bar 100 μm for middle image. DP cells are labelled with RFP. Nuclei are counterstained with TOTO3 (cyan color). Dashed lines show the borderline between DP cells and KCs.
