Ultrastructural examination of PDAC-X2 cells using scanning electron microscopy and transmission electron microscopy. (A, B) Under a scanning electron microscope, PDAC-X2 cells varied in size, with the presence of a small number of microvilli on the cell surface and filamentous pseudopodia. (C) Under a transmission electron microscope, the nucleus of PDAC-X2 was large and the nuclear membrane was wrinkled. (D) The number of organelles decreased, and mitochondria were significantly swollen and vacuolated along with decreased cristae. Additionally, numerous Golgi apparatus and lysosomes were visible inside the cells.
