Artwork of blood platelets repairing capillary
Artwork featuring the role of blood platelets in the repair of a damaged blood capillary. Here, platelets have formed a plug through the damaged epithelium & into the underlying cells. Red cells (erythrocytes) and a single white cell (at top) are also visible inside the capillary. The endothelial lining of a blood capillary consists of a single row of elongated cells. The presence of a relatively large nucleus causes the endothelial cell to bulge slightly into the lumen (interior) of the capillary. Here, the endothelium has ruptured down the middle of one of its cells. This image is third in a series of four

EDITORS COMMENTS
This artwork showcases the intricate process of blood platelets repairing a damaged blood capillary. The image depicts the vital role played by platelets in healing and restoring the integrity of our blood vessels. Through their remarkable ability to form a plug, these tiny cells have penetrated through the damaged epithelium and reached the underlying cells. Within the capillary, we can observe red blood cells (erythrocytes) flowing alongside a single white cell at the top. The endothelial lining, consisting of elongated cells forming a single row, is visible as well. Interestingly, due to its relatively large nucleus, an endothelial cell bulges slightly into the interior space of the capillary. In this particular artwork, we witness how one of these endothelial cells has ruptured down its middle. This rupture serves as evidence for both injury and repair processes taking place simultaneously within our bodies. This stunning image is part of a series that delves deeper into understanding how our body's natural mechanisms work together to maintain optimal health. It highlights not only the complexity but also the resilience present within our anatomy – reminding us once again of nature's incredible design.
