Not illustrated. 1880 edition. Excerpt: ...by a peculiar modification of the connective tissue cells, which give off branching processes which join together, a network of fine fibres is established, radiating at many points from connective tissue cells--a network admirably adapted to afford support to other structures. In the gelatinous connective tissue, the matrix or ground substance in which cells and fibres are imbedded is abundant and has a gelatinous consistence. Connective Tissue Cells. Those axe the anatomical elements which are alone present, in the earliest stages of the development of connective tissue; and it is probably by the differentiation of their protoplasm that the intercellular structures are ultimately formed which give to the different varieties their peculiar characters. We must refer the reader to works on Histology for a full description of the various forms of connective tissue cells. We shall in this place confine ourselves to the following categorical statements. (1) Connective tissue cells consist invariably of a more or less finely granular and contractile protoplasm; in which lies imbedded a nucleus (sometimes more than one), usually of a vesicular nature. The connective tissue cell, whilst it is in its state of typical activity, is destitute of a cell wall, though occasionally one may be developed (as in the fat cell) by the differentiation of the peripheral portion ol the cell-protoplasm. In certain cases branching processes are given off from the protoplasm of the connective tissue cells and may serve to connect adjoining cells together. (2) In certain regions connective tissue cells are found e.g. in the cornea) imbedded in cavities in the ground substance; these cavities sometimes communicate by minute canals, so that there is established a canal system...
