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. Function via the consumption of ATP. includes a process in which a trigger releases a neurotransmitter into a synapse. 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. Functions include structural support and strength, protection, insulation, and storage. These cells are secured to the surface they cover by specialized structures called hemidesmosomes. 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.
