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 stem cells. Colored ultra-thin sections in gill arches treated samples with 10 ppt (A, B) level of salinity A, B: several telocytes surrounding stem cells (S), which are characterized by a high nuclear-cytoplasmic ratio and contain mitochondria (m). Telopodes established a planar contact with stem cells (dashed line). Telopodes formed an extensive network (double arrowheads). They secreted vesicles (V) and a multivesicular body (arrowhead). Several telopodes interdigitate with the stem cells (arrows). note secretory vesicles attached to stem cells (double arrow). Some telopodes were thickened (asterisk)
