Scutoid Shape Packing of Epithelial cells in Human Body

 

 

Scutoid - A new type of cell packing in 3D shapes in Epithelial tissue, creates the cell wall lining of the human body 

American and Spanish scientists have discovered the new size of human cells during the study of epithelial cells. The new size that scientists have been discovered has been named 'scutoid'.
 
This finding will help you to know how cells keep themselves in fully packaged 3D structures inside the body and these structures work as protective shells in the body.

During the study of epithelial cells, the new size of the cell was discovered. Epithelial tissue is one of those four tissues that acts like a protective armour for the body. It creates the cell wall lining of the human body.

The size of the scooedide has 5 sides on one side and 6 edges on the other side, while the long edge has a triangular area. Scientists used computer modelling and imaging to identify this size. It has generated a special shape, which seems to be somewhat like a prism. It has generated a special shape, which seems to be somewhat like a prism.

It prevents microbes from entering the human body. The discovery of the scutoid cells packing will be possible to find out the process of settling them. Apart from this, this tissue is also very useful for engineering, this will help in artificial limb construction.
