A fly-through rendering of the mitochondrial network within an oxidative mouse skeletal muscle cell. Mitochondria are colored according to their location relative to the adjacent contractile structures. | Fly-through rendering of the interior structures of a newborn mouse skeletal muscle highlighting cell and organelle membrane as well as myosin filaments. | |
3D rendering of the interior of a mouse retina mitochondrion. Outer membrane (transparent), inner boundary membrane (transparent), inner membrane cristae (magenta), matrix (yellow), and nucleoids (blue) are shown. | 3D rendering of the Z-disk sheets (light green) within the jump muscle of the fruit fly, Drosophila melanogaster. Individual z-disks (various colors) and contractile sarcomeres (magenta) are also shown. | |
3D rendering of the branching contractile structures within a newborn mouse skeletal muscle. Each color represents an individual myofibril segment. The cell membrane (green) and a nucleus (cyan) are also shown. | 3D rendering of the interior of a newborn mouse skeletal muscle. Mitochondria (red), sarcotubular network (green), lipid droplets (yellow), cell membranes (white), and myosin filaments (blue) are shown. | |

Mitochondrial Donut
Electron microscopy image of a mitochondrion with a donut hole (cyan) as well as sarcoplasmic reticulum (magenta), transverse tubules (orange), and contractile A-bands (green), I-bands (red), and Z-disks (blue) from a mouse glycolytic skeletal muscle.
Mito Fingerprint
3D rendering of the interior of a mouse skeletal muscle mitochondrion. Mitochondrial outer membrane (red) and inner membrane cristae (green) are shown.
SR Mito Cut Through
3D rendering of mitochondria (various colors) and the sarcotubular network (green) in an oxidative mouse skeletal muscle.
Newborn Mouse RBCs
3D rendering of red blood cells (various colors) within a skeletal muscle capillary of a newborn mouse. The vesicles (upper), mitochondria (middle), and endoplasmic reticulum (lower) within each cell are shown.
Drosophila Mito Networks
3D rendering of four different types of mitochondrial networks in the adult muscles of the fruit fly, Drosophila melanogaster. Leg muscle (upper left), jump muscle (upper right), direct flight muscle (bottom right), and indirect flight muscle (bottom left) mitochondrial networks are shown.
Meet the Team
Brian Glancy, Ph.D.
Brian Glancy graduated with a B.A. in Sport Science from the University of the Pacific prior to receiving a Master’s degree in Kinesiology and a Ph.D. in Exercise Science from Arizona State University working with Wayne Willis. He was a postdoctoral fellow with Robert Balaban at the National Heart, Lung, and Blood Institute from 2009 to 2016. Dr. Glancy became an Earl Stadtman Investigator at the NIH with a dual appointment between NHLBI and NIAMS in 2016 and became a tenured Senior Investigator in 2023. He is a member of the American College of Sports Medicine and the American Physiological Society.
