Transmission electron micrograph showing collagen fibrils exhibiting focal swelling and loss of periodic cross banding in the trabecular meshwork of a person with glaucoma. The trabecular meshwork is ...

Transmission electron micrograph showing collagen fibrils in longitudinal view from a patient with glaucoma. The a-e banding is visualized by uranyl acetate staining of charged amino acid residues in ...

Figure 296 from Chapter 11 (Melanin Pigment) of 'The Cell, 2nd Ed.' by Don W. Fawcett M.D. Melanocyte at the dermoepidermal junction, flanked by portions of two adjacent epithelial cells from African...

Low magnification of the epidermal region of the Fundulus heteroclitus scale. The epidermis is separated from the collagen layers of the dermis by the basement membrane. The cells of the epidermis (to...

Confocal image showing damaged collagen fibres in a ruptured tendon. The area of wavey fibres to the lower right shows the normal healthy appearence of tendon. The waviness allows the whole tendon to ...

Scanning electron micrograph of collagen fibrils, showing their characteristic 'D banding' morphology. These collagen fibrils are present in the joint capsule tissue that surrounds the knee.

Colorized scanning electron micrograph of collagen/connective tissue removed from a human knee during arthroscopic surgery. The horizontal field width of the image is 16 microns. Wellcome Image Awar...

Collagen fibrils and mineralization in the external layer of Fundulus heteroclitus scale. The external layer is the second of three layers closest to the dermis of an elasmoid. It is composed of thin ...

Light micrograph of elastic cartilage of the ear. This type of cartilage is made from a protein called elastin and is formed from a network of elastic fibers and collagen. The fibers form bundles whic...

Light micrograph of elastic cartilage of the ear. This is a type of cartilage (connective tissue) that is present in the outer ear. It contains a network of collagen and elastin fibers, which gives it...
