From: A transmission electron microscopy investigation suggests that telocytes, skeletal muscles, myoblasts, and stem cells in common carp (Cyprinus carpio) respond to salinity challenges

Telocytes relation with skeletal myoblast. Colored ultra-thin sections in gill arches treated samples with a 6 ppt level of salinity. A-D: Telocytes surrounded the myoblast which contained ill-organized myofibrils (My). Telopodes were connected to nerve fibers and formed multipoint contact with skeletal muscles. Note nerve fiber (arrow), secretory vesicles (V), and multivesicular body (arrowhead). Telocytes established contact with different types of stromal, epithelial, stem cells (green color), and skeletal muscles. Large number of secretory vesicles were excreted close to the muscular fibers in samples treated with a 6 ppt concentration of salinity
