Morphology and pigmentation of RSC spheres and RSCs in 10x microscope field observation. (a) Free floating RSC sphere at 1 week, (b) RSC spheres of different sizes at day 18. (c) Pigmented and nonpigmented RSCs at day 24. (d) Confluent RSCs layer with epithelial-like to fibroblast-like cell morphology. (a), (b) and (c) are taken in 10x microscopic field but trimmed down to increase the size of image to show clearly cells in neurosphere (a), scale bar (b) and pigments in cells (c).
