Endothelial cell whose mitochondria were stained with MitoTracker Orange CMTMRos. We used a micropipette to induce a rupture of the plasma membrane, which in turn induced mitochondrial fission. Acquisition was performed at two frames per second, and the movie plays at 20 frames per second (i.e. time is accelerated 40 times). The scale bar measures 10 µm.
