Fig. 3. (A) The expression of TN-C can be seen both at the MTJ and the microtendon (arrows). (B) Strong expression of TN-C can also be detected in the myofascial junction, whereas the endomysial and perimysial connective tissues are negative for TN-C immunoreactivity. (C) Only TN-C immunoreactivity that can be detected in the skeletal muscle is visible in the intramuscular myofiber-myofiber junctions at the tips of muscle cells (arrows). (D) In the tendon, immunohistochemical expression of TN-C is visible in the tenocyte—collagen-fiber interface (arrows) as well as on the surface of the collagen fiber bundles of the Achilles tendon. Magnification: A,C,D x100, B x50.
