Cover photograph (Copyright © 2002, American Society for Microbiology. All Rights Reserved.): Interactions between blood vessels (red) and neuroepithelial processes (green) in the developing mouse brain. The v; 8 integrin is necessary for this association, and embryos genetically null for v integrins display abnormal neuroepithelial elaborations and develop brain-specific hemorrhage. The cerebral microvessels (red) were visualized by using an antifibronectin antibody. The neuroepithelial cells (green) were labeled with an antinestin antibody. Autofluorescent red blood cells within the vessels appear yellow. (See related article on page 7667.)
