Ion-abrasion scanning electron microscopy reveals surface-connected tubular conduits in HIV-infected macrophages.
HIV-1-containing internal compartments are readily detected in images of thin sections from infected cells using conventional transmission electron microscopy, but the origin, connectivity, and 3D distribution of these compartments has remained controversial. Here, we report the 3D distribution of v...
