Wandering Cells - 2Fixed CellsFibroblasts
Myofibroblasts
Reticular Cells
Adipocytes
Undifferentiated Mesenchymal Cells - 3Wandering CellsMonocytes & Macrophages (HISTIOCYTES)
Mast Cells
Lymphocytes
Plasma Cells
Eosinophilic Granulocytes
Basophilic Granulocytes
Neutrophilic Granulocytes - 4Function of FibroblastsThey Make protein fibres
--> collagen 1
--> collagen 3
--> Ground substance - 5Function of myofibroblastsobserved in CT during WOUND HEALING
Their cytoplasm contains Myofilaments
Responsible for WOUND CLOSURE - 6AdipocytesWhite and Brown
White has one single large drop of fat, acts as a nutrients reservoir
Brown has a number of lipid droplets, abduntant mitochondria and lysosomes, present in Hibernating mammals - 7MelanocytesPigment cells
Synthesise melanin which is responsible for absorption of light rays - 8Histiocytes (Monocytes and Macrophages)Monocytes are precursors of Macrophages
Macrophages hinges foreign particles. Function as antigen presenting cells as well - 9Mast CellsCytoplasm contains histamine and heparin, involved in immune response (ALLERGY)
- 10Plasma CellsPRODUCTION OF ANTIBODIES
They originate from B lymphocytes
