Keratocyte dendrites?
As of 12-11-18, the first sentence of the second paragraph of section 'Origin and functions' says (with respect to an interconnected keratocyte network), "...with dendrites of neighbouring cells contacting each over.[3]", and I am unfamiliar with dendrites being a part of any cell other than neurons. Can anyone explain how 'dendrites' is used here? The best I can infer is that the keratocytes derived from neural crest cells, but then differentiated into not-neurons, while still retaining dendritic projections, which then serve as some kind of inter-cellular 'connectors'? Connecting how, and doing what, functionally, as they 'contact' each other? (I presume the word each 'over' in that sentence is meant to be each 'other', but I can't read the reference to be sure, because unfortunately the reference indicated for that sentence comes up for me as "The owner of www.iovs.org has configured their website improperly. ", as a security violation, "www.iovs.org uses an invalid security certificate. The certificate is only valid for the following names: *.arvojournals.org, arvojournals.org", so I can't read the reference with my browser.)  UnderEducatedGeezer (talk) 00:07, 12 December 2018 (UTC)
 * I think I have found an answer to my own question: there are cells which are not neurons, called dendritic cells, which have branching projections of the cytoplasm of the cell which are also called dendrites. (I may change the 'each over' in the article to each other, per: https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC2505273/, "...they form an interconnected cellular network with one another through dendritic processes.")
