Description

A fibroblast is a cell that synthesizes collagen and the extracellular matrix. Inactive fibroblasts are known as fibrocytes. Fibroblasts are important in healing wounds, and their mitosis is induced by tissue damage. Fibroblasts can be identified by their high levels of rough endoplasmic reticulum. They are also the most common connective tissue cells in animals.
