The third stage is the early RA stage, where synovial inflammation may occur. The synovium is loose connective tissue around joints, composed of fibroblasts, whose pathology is mainly related to immune cell subsets in synovial tissue, including macrophage subsets and T-cell subsets, and nonimmune ...
The hypodermis, also referred to as subcutaneous tissue, is the innermost layer of the skin in the human body. The hypodermal connective tissue is more important than an element that provides structural support. Its functions include wound healing, preservation of energy homeostasis, body temperature ...

It is composed of the skin (cutis) and the subcutis (hypodermis) The cutis is composed of two layers, the epidermis and the dermis (corium). The epidermis is the most superficial layer of the skin and about one-tenth of a millimeter thick. It provides the first barrier of protection ...
fat cell- cells composed of fat adipose cell somatic cell,vegetative cell- any of the cells of a plant or animal except the reproductive cells; a cell that does not participate in the production of gametes; "somatic cells are produced from preexisting cells"; ...
Accessory structures of the skin include hair, nails, sweat glands, and sebaceous glands. These structures embryologically originate from the epidermis and can extend down through the dermis into the hypodermis. Hair Hair is a keratinous filament growing out of the epidermis. It is primarily made...
Microscopically, there appears to be an abundance of acid mucopolysaccharide deposition in the dermis and hypodermis as well as a markedly thickened fascia.72 The defect appears to be an accelerated biosynthesis of collagen in the fibroblasts of TSK mice.73 Characterizing the defective gene product ...
CarpelFemale reproductive structure of flower, usually comprising ovary, style and stigma; carpels may be solitary or grouped or fused with others, as in Cactaceae (see Gynoecium). CaudexThe swollen water-storage tissue, usually composed of both root and stem, of a succulent woody plant. ...
3. Evaluating Sclerenchyma: Sclerenchyma is known for providing mechanical strength; however, it is composed of dead cells at maturity. Therefore, it cannot be the answer since the question specifies a living tissue. 4. Evaluating Sclerids: Sclerids are a type of sclerenchyma. Like sclerenchyma,...
The invention also provides methods to diagnose or treat a pathology of the lung, pancreas, skin, retina, prostate, ovary, lymph node, adrenal gland, liver or gut by administering to a subject having or suspected of having a pathology a molecule that homes to the selected organ or tissue. ...
