Figure 1 Bacterial movement within yeast vacuoles. Light micrographs taken at four time intervals (A, B, C and D) show fast-moving bacterium-like bodies (BLB) inside the vacuoles (V) of Candida yeast cells (magnification × 1250)[64].

Figure 2 Visualization of bacterium within yeast vacuoles. Fluorescence micrographs of Candida yeast stained by a live/dead-BacLight kit show live (green) bacterium-like bodies (BLB) inside the vacuoles (V) of (A) yeast cells and (B) hyphae (N: Nucleus; M: Mitochondrion) (magnification × 1000)[87].

Figure 3 Helicobacter pylori movement in dividing yeast. Fluorescence micrographs from three experiments (A, B and C) using a live/dead-BacLight kit showing live (green) fast-moving Helicobacter pylori (HP) cells (arrows and arrowhead) inside the vacuoles (V) of mother (M) and daughter (D) Candida cells taken at 0, 2 and 4 s (magnification × 1000)[108].

Figure 4 Immunolabeling of Helicobacter pylori. Immunofluorescence micrographs showing: A: Localization of Helicobacter pylori (H. pylori) (green) inside the Candida yeast, some of which appear red due to diffusion of the counterstain (magnification × 4000); B: Control H. pylori (green; arrows) (magnification × 1000); and C: Absence of bacteria in heat-killed yeast (magnification × 1000)[108].
