Reticular connective tissue consists of a network of star-shaped and branched cells, the spaces of which contain another kind of tissue element. In the so-called adenoid tissue, which functions as the supporting tissue of the lymph glands, the contents of the inter- cellular spaces are lymph corpuscles. A form of connective tissue very widely scat- tered amongst the Ver- tebrates is the so-called Jibrillar connective tissue (fig. 27). This consists of a large proportion of spindle-shaped, or branched cells, and of a solid intercellular sub- stance, which is totally or partially broken up into bundles of fibres and FIG. 27.—Fibrillar connective tissue. possesses the property of yielding gelatine on boiling. If the protoplasm of the cells is mostly or entirely used up in the formation of fibres, fibrous tissue is produced nuclei in the position of the original cells. Very often the.
