Neuromuscular junction from the ceratomandibularis muscle of a lizard
The neuromuscular junction stained with primary mouse IgG antibodies raised against human cannabinoid (CB1) receptors, then with secondary goat anti-mouse antibodies complexed to Fluorescein. The CB1 receptors (GREEN) are clustered around the periphery of the motor nerve terminals and boutons (RED).

CHO K1 (Chinese Hamster Ovary) cells expressing paxillin-GFP
Paxillin is an adaptor molecule found in focal adhesions (large bright structures within the images). The pictures were taken on an Olympus IX70 with a QImaging Retiga Exi camera and Prairie laser launch. The wide field image is with the laser going straight through the sample and the TIRF image is with the laser tuned to the TIRF mode.
