As discussed in

Mast cells or mastocytes -

Two or three-lobed S-shaped nucleus, Cytoplasm is stained by basic type (Methylene blue).

- wherein

They secrete Histamine (vasodilated) takes part in allergy and inflammatory response, Serotonin or 5 hydroxytryptamines (vasoconstrictor)  and Heparin  (anti-coagulant).

 

 

White fibrous tissue -

Dense network of thick collagen fibre bundles and few fibroblasts. It is present at the joints between skull bones and make them immovable. 

-

 

 

Collagen fibres -

 Collagen fibres are most abundant(30% of the total body) fibrous element, composed of collagen protein (Tropocollagen).

- wherein

They are long, unbranched, white, shining, tough fibre, stained by eosin dye and convert into gelatin on boiling. They are digested by pepsin enzyme.

 

 

Macrophages/ histocytes/ plasmatocytes -

They are the second largest (after neuron) in size and number. 

- wherein

They have a large number of lysosomes and are phagocytic in nature; also known as scavanger cells or cleaner.
