Endothelial Cells

Endothelial Cells

Endothelial cells form a thin layer of simple squamous epithelial cells. They are located on the inner lining of Cardiovascular and Lymphatic systems. It has all the same organelles as a typical eukaryotic cell. The function of endothelial cells is to act as a barrier between fluids and organs inside the body. They can also help regulate blood pressure.

  2. I like how your first picture contains fluorescent dyes. It makes it easier for me to identify the different parts of the cell.
