Megakaryocyte proplatelet processes

Megakaryocyte proplatelet processes
Scanning electron micrograph (x3000) shows the luminal view of the confluence of two bone marrow sinusoids with two proplatelet processes protruding through the lining endothelial cells. One of the processes has intermittent constrictions (arrows), indicating potential sites for platelet formation. Other cells depicted include lymphocytes and erythrocytes.
