As the name implies, connective tissue serves a "connecting" function. It supports and binds other tissues in the body. Unlikeepithelial tissuewhich has cells that are closely packed together, connective tissue typically hascellsscattered throughout an extracellular matrix of ...
Connective tissueshave an extensive ECM that serves to bridge, interconnect, and support a variety of cellular and organ structures. These structures are typically composed of cells, blood vessels, and a particular type of ECM. For example, skin, fibroblasts and blood vessels are interwoven within...
Mast cells are components of loose connective tissues, often located near small blood vessels (BV). (a) They are typically oval shaped, with cytoplasm filled with strongly basophilic granules. X400. PT. (b) Ultrastructurally mast cells show little else around the nucleus (N) besides these cyt...
Most connective tissues serve to support or protect soft tissues within the body or to transmit mechanical forces,2 but connective tissues also have other functions, as well (Table 2.3). Table 2.3. Some Functions of Connective Tissues Support Skeleton Protection of soft tissues Skull Transmission ...
Connective tissues are typically involved in structure and support, and are usually derived from mesoderm cells. Connective tissue is widespread in the body, and as the name implies, it primarily serves a connecting function to bind or strengthen organs or other tissues. It also functions inside ...

Hereditary disorders of connective tissue are aheterogeneousgroup of generalized single-gene-determined disorders that affect one or another of the primary elements of the connective tissues (collagen, elastin, orground substance[glycosaminoglycans]). Many causeskeletalandjointabnormalities that may interfere...
The reason why the inflammatory process is mainly limited to these tissues is unclear although cross reaction of ANA with tissue specific proteins or increased expression of muscle and connective tissue antigens in the orbit and skin, are possibilities....
(#15c) scalpel blade is used at the periosteal level (i.e., deep but not superficial) to develop a pouch that typically is 10 to 12 mm vertical; its apicalbaseis wider than the crestal incision. As necessary, the dissection can be altered to include the tissues adjacent to the ...
