Description

Reticulin is a type of collagen fiber found in the extracellular matrix of various tissues, including the liver, spleen, lymph nodes, and bone marrow. It is characterized by its thin, delicate structure and its association with reticular cells. Reticulin is synthesized by fibroblasts and other cells within the connective tissue. It plays a crucial role in providing structural support and organization to these tissues, forming a network that helps to hold cells together and provide a scaffold for tissue development and regeneration. Reticulin is also involved in the regulation of cell migration and differentiation. Due to its presence in various tissues and its association with disease processes, reticulin has become a subject of research in fields like immunology, pathology, and oncology. Studies have investigated its role in tissue remodeling, wound healing, and tumor progression. Reticulin staining is a valuable tool for histopathology and can help in identifying and characterizing certain types of tissues and diseases.'

Reticulin: A scleroprotein fibril consisting mostly of type III collagen. Reticulin fibrils are extremely thin, with a diameter of between 0.5 and 2 um. They are involved in maintaining the structural integrity in a variety of organs. [Medical Subject Headings (MeSH), National Library of Medicine, extracted Dec-2023]

Research Excerpts

Overview

Reticulin fibrosis is a useful biologic and prognostic index in newly diagnosed patients with chronic phase chronic myelogenous leukemia. Reticulin is a group of different substances which mostly contain collagen III.
