Confocal microscopy images of fibroblasts incubated with microvesicles/exosomes stained with acridine orange.

<p>Confocal microscopy picture of DNA-stained microvesicles/exosomes after dialysis, ultracentrifugation and resuspension in DMEM. After incubation with fibroblasts for 3 h at 37°C the DNA-staining localizes in fibroblasts to and inside the nuclear membrane. Additional light microscopy was used to add a layer in images to visualize cell borders. Arrows in A) and B) indicate acridine orange staining inside nuclei. B) also visualizes red wave length which detects acridine orange staining for RNA. Yellow staining shows colocalization of DNA and RNA.
