Ramon y Cajal discovered a particular cell type in the gut, which he named 'interstitial
neurons' more that 100 years ago. In the early 1970s, electron microscopy/electron …

Telocytes (TCs) are a novel interstitial (stromal) cell type described in many tissues and
organs (www. telocytes. com). A TC is characterized by a small cell body (9–15 μm) and a …

The pulmonary vasculature is comprised of three anatomic compartments connected in
series: the arterial tree, an extensive capillary bed, and the venular tree. Although in general …

Since the first description of 'interstitial cells of Cajal'in the mammalian gut in 1911, scientists

BACKGROUND: There is a lack of understanding of the substrate for microreentrant circuits
and triggered activity of the pulmonary vein (PV) muscle sleeves and atria in patients with …

This study describes a novel type of interstitial (stromal) cell—telocytes (TCs)—in the human
and mouse respiratory tree (terminal and respiratory bronchioles, as well as alveolar ducts) …

Telocytes (TCs), a particular interstitial cell type, have been recently described in a wide
