Construct cell ultrastructure. Electron microphotographs of cells from ASC-COLI constructs cultured in stromal (A) or tenogenic (B) medium for 21 days with fibrils in the ECM surrounding the latter (yellow arrows). Cells within constructs cultured in stromal medium had abundant rough endoplasmic reticulum (white arrow) and mitochondria (black arrow), and heterochromatin was apparent in the nuclei of construct cells cultured in tenogenic medium (gray arrow). Nuclei are indicated with an asterisk (*) and template material with a hash (#). Scale bars = 2 μm (A), 1 μm (B).
