The illustration depicts a spindle-shaped connective tissue cell with a central nucleus and prominent contractile stress fibers spanning the cytoplasm. This specialized fibroblast is a cell type within stromal connective tissue, studied in histology, cell biology, and pathology. It contributes to wound repair and fibrosis by generating contractile force and synthesizing extracellular matrix (ECM), including collagen. The dark filament bundles represent actin-rich stress fibers consistent with alpha-smooth muscle actin (α‑SMA) expression, typical of this contractile cell in healing tissues.
