Connective tissue (1)
1.Loose connective tissue (No.4, No.1 )
2.Dense connective tissue (No.14)
3.Adipose tissue (No.14/ No.6)
4.Reticular tissue (No.6)
1. General features: 1) small number of cells and large amount of extracellular matrix (intercellular material). 2) the extracellular matrix is composed of fibers and an amorphous ground substance. 3) functions: connection, supporting, protecting, nutrition, defense and repairing.
2. Classification
Connective tissue proper Cartilage Bone blood
The types of CT are determined on the basis of the types of cell and the characteristics of the extracellular matrix

LCT : HE X400
Material: rabbit mesentery
Slide No:4
High power:
1. Elongated and tortuous collagenous fibers are stained red and arranged in bundles.
2. The elastic fibers are blue stained, branched and formed a woven network.
3. The fibroblast is the cell most commonly in close to the collagen fiber. Its basophilic nucleus is visible.
4. For the macrophage, its cytoplasm contains some blue dye substance.
Loose connective tissue
Low power: fibers are loosely and irregularly arranged.
high power: Elongated and tortuous collagenous fibers are stained red and arranged in bundles.Elastic fibers are blue stained,branched and formed a woven network.
fiber
Fibroblast: the most commonly cell in close to the collagen fiber.only the basophilic nucles is visible,but the acidophilic cytoplasm is not clearly defined.
Cell
Macrophage: ingest the blue dye by phagocytosis so they can be easily identified.

Small intestine: HE X40
Slide No:1
Method: H.E
lower power:
The lightly stained submucosa between mucosa and smooth muscle layer.
Low power:

submucosa
High power:
collagenous fibers are the predominant component and they course in different direction. They are sectioned in various planes and cut ends is seen. stained red and arranged in bundles.
Fibroblast are the most numerous cells ,only the basophilic nucles is visible,but the acidophilic cytoplasm is not clearly defined.

Dense connective tissue and adipose tissue
Slide No:14
Material: human skin from finger
Method: H.E
Naked eye: in the section, epidermis is violent stained. Under epidermis, the dermis is pink and composed of dense connective tissue.
In hypodermis, you can find loose connective tissue and adipose tissue.
In the section , epidermis is violent stained. Under epidermis,the dermis is pink and compose of denes connective tissue.
Low power:
epidermis
dermis
high power:
collagenous fibers are the predominant component and they course in different direction. They are dense ,irregularly arranged and formed thic bundles. stained red .The numbers of cells are few, most of which are fibroblasts and fibrocytes.
Dense regularly connective tissue
Tendon(longitudinal section)
High power:Collagenous fibers are arranged in compact,parallel bundles
Tendon cell:
Lymph node: Reticular tissue HE X400
Reticular tissue
Slide No.5
Material: lymph node of cat
Method: H.E
High power:
Reticular cell: A reticular cell produces reticular fiber and surrounds the fibers with its cytoplasm.
It has many processes. Its nuclei is lightly stained, but the nucleolus is clear.

Adipose tissue
Material: human lymph node
Method: H&E
Slide NO: 6 Adipose tissue
Low power:
Fat cell are present in large accumulations, orgnized into adipose tissue
Lymph node : Adipose tissue HE X40
high power:
Individual Fat cells show their chracteristic structure,empty cells,due to solution of fat during section preparation.
The nucleus is pushed to the periphery of the cell.
