interstitial cell

Usually, people perceive interstitial cells as being mainly (or even, only) fibroblasts.

In horses, these include interstitial cell tumors and teratomas.

No other interstitial cell within the testes has a nucleus or cytoplasm with these characteristics, making identification relatively easy.

LH binds to the interstitial cells, causing them to secrete testosterone.

Activity is initiated by the pacemaker cells (interstitial cells of Cajal).

Nevertheless, where redevelopment took place, primary distributors were inserted in inner city areas with interstitial cells frequently reconstructed as environmental areas.

Interstitial cells, which are unspecialized and can replace lost or damaged cells by transforming into the appropriate types.

For the cell in the gastrointestinal tract, see Interstitial cell of Cajal.

Between tubules (interstitial cells)

The stroma of the ovary may contain interstitial cells resembling those of the testis.

Kohn's papers on the pituitary, interstitial cells of testes, and ovaries are also related to endocrinology.

Such cells (as well as analogous cells in the ovary, also stimulated by the hormone) are called "interstitial cells."

The stimulation for these contractions likely originates in modified smooth muscle cells called interstitial cells of Cajal.

Slow waves are initiated by pacemakers - the interstitial cells of Cajal (ICC).

Testosterone is produced by interstitial cells, also known as Leydig cells, which reside adjacent to the seminiferous tubules.

The second pituitary hormone in the male is known as the interstitial cell stimulating hormone (ICSH).

Interstitial cell of Cajal (ICC)

They directly innervate the ovarian theca and secondary interstitial cells and exert an indirect action on the luteal cells.

The interstitial cells of Cajal are specialized pacemaker cells located in the wall of the stomach, small intestine, and large intestine.

He discovered a new type of cell, to be named after him: the interstitial cell of Cajal (ICC).

Cells called the Leydig cells or interstitial cells of Leydig are between the tubules and produce hormones.

Medullipin is a hormone created by the interstitial cells of renal papilla, which is converted to medullipin II in the liver.

Selective expression of the EP2 receptor in interstitial cells is consistent with a lack of segmental localization by in situ hybridization.

In addition to epitheliomuscular, nerve and interstitial cells, the inward-facing gastroderm ("stomach skin") contains gland cells that secrete digestive enzymes.
