pubmed:abstractText |
Fibrous components other than collagen fibrils in the reticular fiber of mouse lymph node were studied by electron microscopy. Bundles of microfibrils not associated by elastin and single microfibrils dispersed among collagen fibrils were present. The diameter of the microfibrils was 13.29 +/- 2.43 nm (n = 100). Elastin-associated microfibrils occurred at the periphery of the reticular fiber. Elastin was enclosed by microfibrils, thus forming the elastic fiber, which was clearly demonstrated by tannic acid-uranyl acetate staining. In the reticular fiber of lymph nodes, the elastic fiber consisted of many more microfibrils and a small amount of elastin. These microfibrils, together with the collagen fibrils, may contribute to the various functions of the reticular fibers.
