Both sides of two adjacent hepatocytes show two mitochondria each linking to three desmosomes. Nice to see such symmetry and the implications are quite amazing, in that whatever is happening at the plasmalemmae of these cells is happening “together”, really nice intracellular communication. Red arrows point to the inner mitochondrial membrane, just above where the intermediate filaments of the desmosomes approach the outer mitochondrial membrane. I wish i could say that I saw some cross sections of intermediate filaments here, but i didn’t. The double desmosomal mitochondrial junction on the left is more tangential than the one on the right. The pair in the middle is intermediate.
