Inactive fibroblast
Inactive fibroblasts are the predominate cell type in an adult tendon, which is classified as dense regular connective tissue. Highly flattened, heterochromatic fibroblast nuclei are interspersed with collagen bundles oriented in parallel. Thin fibroblast processes with sparse cytoplasm are visible extending from the tips of the nuclei. 1000x
