At the left the capsule is bordered by a basal lamina (4a) of two projections (4) of type I epithelioreticular cells. Close to them, part of an endothelial cell (3) of a capillary (1: lumen). A thymocyte (2) in diapedesis through the endothelial cytoplasm is enclosed by endothelial cell processes (3a).
