MICROANATOMY

Detailed explanation-1: -The cells and tissues that support and give structure to organs, glands, or other tissues in the body. The stroma is mostly made up of connective tissue, blood vessels, lymphatic vessels, and nerves. It provides nutrients to the tissue or organ and removes waste and extra fluid.

Detailed explanation-2: -The mammary stroma consists of multiple components: adipocytes, pre-adipocytes, fibroblasts, blood vessels, inflammatory cells, and ECM, each subject to regulation throughout the developmental cycle.

Detailed explanation-3: -Connective tissue proper, lying beneath the surface epithelium and surrounding the glands, forms the stroma. The gelatinous ground substance of this loose connective tissue provides good padding for the epithelium, supports the glands and allows for diffusion.
