Telocyte
Telocytes are a novel defined type of interstitial (stromal) cells, in the field of Stem cells, with very long (tens to hundreds of micrometres) and very thin prolongations (mostly below the resolving power of light microscopy).
== Rationale for the term ''telocyte''==
Professor Laurențiu M. Popescu's group from Bucharest, Romania described a new type of cell. Popescu coined the terms Telocytes (TC) - for these cells, and ''Telopodes'' (Tp) () for their extremely long but thin prolongations () in order to prevent further confusion with other interstitial (stromal) cells (e.g., fibroblast, fibroblast-like cells, myofibroblast, mesenchymal cells) (see Figs. 1-7). Telopodes present an alternation of thin segments,''podomeres'' (with caliber mostly under 200 nm, below the resolving power of light microscopy) and dilated segments, ''podoms'', which accommodate mitochondria, (rough) endoplasmic reticulum and caveolae - the so-called ''"Ca2+ uptake/release units"''. The concept of TC was promptly adopted by other laboratories, as well ().
