“…Because of the growing awareness of extensive interactions between the different components of the cytoskeleton, such as microfilaments, microtubules and intermediate filaments [2,6,9,10,12,26,27,34] it is not surprising that double immunofluorescence labeling has been extensively used in studies of cytoskeletal organization and function for visualizing the distribution of two different antigens in the same cell [28], Information about the overall organization of the cyto skeleton, however, cannot be obtained by this approach. Therefore a variety of nonspe cific techniques which can be used in con junction with fluorescence microscopy [11,17,18,19,36] such as transmission [4] and scanning [30] electron microscopy, videoenhanced contrast microscopy [1], surface re flection interference (SRI) microscopy [18,19,21], and photoelectron microscopy [17] have been developed to visualize the cyto skeleton.…”
