Peripheral
nerve - bronchus (40x objective lens)
-
This higher magnification
image shows sinuous Schwann cell nuclei and
partially extracted myelin. The nerve
fibers themselves can be seen only in a few places amongst the myelin.
This fascicle of nerves is bounded by a thin collagenous perineurium
containing the flattened nuclei of fibroblasts.
A capillary with a flattened endothelial
cell nucleus can
be seen at the upper right edge of the epineurium.
