No, there is not dense connective tissue in the epidermis. There is loose connective tissue right below the epidermis (areolar connective tissue).
The epineurium is the outermost layer of connective tissue surrounding a nerve. In the case of the fibrous sheath, the epineurium refers to the thick layer of dense connective tissue that surrounds and protects the entire nerve bundle, providing structural support and protection.
Collagenous fibers are the tough fibers of connective tissue.
Cartilage is enclosed by a layer of dense connective tissue called the perichondrium, except on the articulating surfaces in joint cavities. The perichondrium has two layers-- a fibrous outer layer and an inner layer of cells with chondrogenic (cartilage-forming) potential. The chondrogenic cells undergo division and differentiate into chondroblasts.
The connective tissue that forms the protective layer of the eye is called the sclera. This tough, white outer layer helps maintain the shape of the eye and provides attachment points for the eye's muscles.
The inner layer of the ureter is the mucosa. The mucosa consists of transitional epithelium and lamina propria. Lamina propria is composed of areolar connective tissue. The middle layer is the muscularis. This consists of smooth muscle. The outer layer, the fibrous coat, is a supporting layer of fibrous connective tissue. A portion of the outer layer is covered in serosa.
Tendons and ligaments are structures in the body that consist of dense fibrous connective tissue. Tendons connect muscle to bone, while ligaments connect bone to bone, providing strength and stability to joints.
Several sheaths of connective tissue hold the fibers of a skeletal muscle together. These sheaths from internal to external are the first layer is the endomysium (within the muscle), the second is a layer of fibrous connective tissue called perimysium (around the muscle) and the third is the epimysium , a name that means “outside the muscle.
Each kidney is held in place by connective tissue, called renal fascia, and is surrounded by a thick layer of adipose tissue, called perirenal fat, which helps to protect it. A tough, fibrous, connective tissue renal capsule closely envelopes each kidney and provides support for the soft tissue that is inside.
The deeper part of the dermis of the skin. Basically, this part of the dermis has dense or fibrous irregular conective tissue, which provides strength to the skin. Below this tissue there is loose connective tissue (areolar connective tissue and adipose tissue) that are part of the subcutaneous layer of the skin. As you know, the dermis is part of the cutaneous membrane.
Inflammation of the fibrous connective tissue of the subcutaneous layer of skin is known as cellulitis. It is typically caused by a bacterial infection and presents with redness, warmth, swelling, and pain in the affected area. Prompt treatment with antibiotics is necessary to prevent complications.
