Figure 2

(A–D) FIB-SEM images (inverted) show 3 telocytes (TC1, TC2, TC3) and a nerve ending (N) in the vicinity of a cardiomyocyte (CM). In 2D digital slices extracted from the volume, the telocyte TC1 show typical narrow segments (podomers, arrowheads) of the telopodes (Tp1, Tp2) alternating with dilations (podom, arrows). The narrow emergence of telopode Tp1 from TC1 is visible in B. The telocyte TC1 is reconstructed in Figure 3. Rectangular marked area is reconstructed in Figure 4. Tpx – telopodes belonging to different telocytes, N-nerve ending, CM – cardiomyocyte, gly- glycogen particles in CM. Scale bars: 2 μm.
