Inactive fibroblast
In this dense irregular connective tissue, numerous inactive fibroblasts are surrounded by large collagen bundles. Fibroblasts are spindle- to stellate-shaped cells with attenuated cellular processes extending from dark, heterochromatic nuclei. The space surrounding the cells and the collagen is filled with ground substance. 1000x
