Smooth muscle

Between these cross and longitudinal sections of smooth muscle is a region of dense irregular CT containing large collagen bundles.  When compared with smooth muscle, the CT appears more dispersed, and the heterochromatic fibroblast nuclei contrast with the active, euchromatic muscle nuclei.  Smooth muscle is also more basophilic.  1000x
