Abstract
An epithelioid osteoblast layer adjacent to a bone trabecula (1) has here been vertically sectioned. The bone-forming cells i.e. osteoblasts (2) are flattened and joined to one another by their processes. The cells contain a spherical or ellipsoidal nucleus with condensed chromatin and a large peripheral nucleolus. Broad cisternae of rough endoplasmic reticulum (3) with moderately osmiophilic contents are conspicuous in the cytoplasm. Around the voluminous Golgi apparatus (4), numerous vesicles (5) are present. Several mitochondria and large numbers of free ribosomes occur between the cisternae of rough endoplasmic reticulum.
