Universidad de Zaragoza The primary cilium of telocytes in the vasculature: Electron microscope imaging 2011 Access copy available to the general public Unrestricted Blood vessels are highly organized and complex structure, which are far more than simple tubes conducting the blood to almost any tissue of the body. The fine structure of the wall of blood vessels has been studied previously using the electron microscope, but the presence the telocytes associated with vasculature, a specific new cellular entity, has not been studied in depth. Interestingly, telocytes have been recently found in the epicardium, myocardium, endocardium, human term placenta, duodenal lamina propria and pleura. We show the presence of telocytes located on the extracellular matrix of blood vessels (arterioles, venules and capillaries) by immunohistochemistry and transmission electron microscopy. Also, we demonstrated the first evidence of a primary cilium in telocytes. Several functions have been proposed for these cells. Here, the telocyte-blood vessels cell proximity, the relationship between telocytes, exosomes and nervous trunks may have a special significance. info:eu-repo/grantAgreement/ES/DGA/B83 info:eu-repo/grantAgreement/ES/IACS/PIPAMER-10-001 info:eu-repo/semantics/openAccess by http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/3.0/es/ 4.125 2011 MEDICINE, RESEARCH & EXPERIMENTAL 22 / 112 = 0.196 2011 Q1 T1 CELL BIOLOGY 65 / 181 = 0.359 2011 Q2 T2 info:eu-repo/semantics/article info:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersion Luesma, M.J.
