... were exposed. The 60-100 µm diameter honeycomb structures of the endomysium housing individual muscle fibers were clearly observed. The sheath of endomysium was membranous and consisted of tightly arranged collagen fibrils 30-70 nm in diameter. The perimysium was composed of several layers of 100–200...

...Matti Lehto; Martti Kvist; Toini Vieno; László Józsa The macromolecular composition of sarcolemma and endomysium was studied by classical staining methods for glycosaminoglycans and using immunological techniques for proteins. Both proteoglycans and glycosaminoglycans (heparan sulphate, dermatan...
