Consists of neurons and neuroglia (a specialized group of support cells). Overlies many body surfaces. It forms a cover as the outer layer of organs, such as the skin, and a lining as the inner layer of the wall of a hollow organ or tract, such as the gastrointestinal tract. Specialized tissue with both contractile and conducting properties. It is made up of fibers, also known as myocytes or myofibers, derived from myocyte progenitor cells. These cells are secured to the surface they cover by specialized structures called hemidesmosomes. includes a process in which a trigger releases a neurotransmitter into a synapse. Functions include structural support and strength, protection, insulation, and storage. A collective term for support cells and associated extracellular matrix. The extracellular matrix, usually secreted by the support cells themselves, is composed of an unstructured ground substance which fills the space between the support cells, and contains fibers with various properties.
