Fascia adherens

Fascia adherens

[Histology" A Text and Atlas with Correlated Cell and Molecular Biology by Michael H. Ross and Mojciech Pawlina 5th edition] Orphan|date=September 2006Fascia Adherens is a ribbon like structure that stabilizes non-epithelial tissue. Is similar to the Zonula Adherens or Adherens junction of epithelial cells but it's not belt-like. It's a broad intercellular junction in the intercalated disk of cardiac muscle anchoring actin filaments. It helps to transmit contractile forces.
