Nuclear structure and sub-compartments. a. Developmental changes as seen with DAPI staining (in yellow). The nucleus of an embryonic stem cell is euchromatic and relatively homogeneous. Heterochromatin foci (centromeres and telomeres) become more evident in neuronal progenitors. Mature neurons present fewer and denser chromocenters (adapted from microscopy images in [8]). b. Different types of nuclear bodies can be found in the nucleus of post-mitotic neurons
