• Connective Tissue Cell

  A group of cells that includes FIBROBLASTS, cartilage cells, ADIPOCYTES, smooth muscle cells, and bone cells.

• Smooth Muscle

  Unstriated and unstriped muscle, one of the muscles of the internal organs, blood vessels, hair follicles, etc. Contractile elements are elongated, usually spindle-shaped cells with ...

• Glomerular Mesangium

  The thin membrane which helps to support the capillary loops in a renal glomerulus. It is connective tissue composed of mesangial cells - myofibroblasts phenotypically ...

  A class of cell surface receptors for tachykinins with a preference for substance P. Neurokinin-1 (NK-1) receptors have been cloned and are members of the ...

• Arterial Media

  The middle coat of blood vessel walls, composed principally of thin, cylindrical, smooth muscle cells and elastic tissue. It accounts for the bulk of the ...
