tendon cell [FBbt_00005090]

Cell of epidermal origin that is attached to the end of muscles and connects them to the exoskeleton. The attachment between the muscle and tendon cell is done via interdigitating desmosomes. The attachment of the tendon cell to the cuticle relies on interdigitating hemidesmosomes in this cell that are closely associated with tonofibrils embedded in the cuticle.
