I say cross-section of a blood vessel. Interesting that is has a hexagonal shape, though.

Holy crap, for once my old fallback guess -- A hexagonal cloud formation around Saturn's north pole -- finally pays off!

Did any one else have an optical illusion happen when they stared at the image, or was that a flashback to my hallucinogenic years?

I thought so, too; and that the hexagonal stuff was the way that plaque was laid down. Well, there's three of us who have medically-based imaginations here.

@7 - Yes, "how does it maintain a hexagonal shape" is a key question. Happily
