  • Title: Ultrastructure of chick tendon fibroblast with special reference to secretory mechanism.
    Author: Ghoneim SE, Cavazos F, Lucas FV.
    Journal: Acta Anat (Basel); 1979; 104(2):172-82. PubMed ID: 442971.
    Abstract:
    Electron-microscope study of chick tendon fibroblast revealed a constant ultrastructural finding of a microtubular-microfibrillar system and an intimate relationship which existed between the microtubular-microfibrillar system and secretory vacuoles. Additionally, the data from this study suggest a mechanism by which newly synthesized collagen molecules are transported and secreted into the extracellular space to be organized into mature collagen.
