Adipocyte
Adipocytes, or fat cells, are non-motile resident cells filled with stored lipid. This centrally located lipid compresses the remaining cytoplasm to a thin, outer rim. Each heterochromatic nucleus is visible as a crescent on one side of the cell. These adipocytes, as well as adjacent glands, are surrounded by a loose connective tissue. 300x
