An Endothelial Contribution to Coronary Vessels [PDF]
Cell, 2012 Despite the profound impact of coronary artery disease on human health, the origins of the coronary blood vessels are poorly understood. Wu et al. use imaging and genetic techniques to show that the endocardium contributes to the coronary vessels and that the coronary arteries and veins have multilineage origins.

The mysterious origins of coronary vessels [PDF]
Cell Research, 2013 The origin of the coronary vessels remains a mystery. Here we discuss recent studies that address this puzzle, including new work by Tian et al. recently published in Cell Research.

Development of the Coronary Vessel System [PDF]
Circulation Research, 2002 Formation of the coronary vessels is a fundamental event in heart development. Congenital abnormalities in the coronary system can have major deleterious effects on heart function. It is also possible that subtle variation in the patterning of coronary vessels has significant but uncharacterized effects on myocardial structure and function. In addition,

Coronary Vessel Development [PDF]
Arteriosclerosis, Thrombosis, and Vascular Biology, 2003 Development of the coronary vascular system is an interesting model in developmental biology with major implications for the clinical setting. Although coronary vessel development is a form of vasculogenesis followed by angiogenesis, this system uses several unique developmental processes not observed in the formation of other blood vessels.

Development of Coronary Vessels
The FASEB Journal, 2004 Publisher Summary This chapter discusses the development in coronary vessels. Formation of the coronary vessels occurs through an epithelial-to-mesenchymal transformation of proepicardial cells, followed by vasculogenesis in the subepicardial layer, assembly and remodeling of a primitive coronary plexus, and recruitment of a smooth-muscle coating ...

Multi-vessel coronary disease and percutaneous coronary intervention [PDF]
Heart, 2004 The goal of percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) is to provide a safe, effective, less invasive alternative to coronary artery bypass graft surgery (CABG). When introduced by Andreas Gruentzig 25 years ago, he envisioned the procedure to be a technique that would delay the need for CABG until severe multi-vessel coronary disease was present.

Embryonic development of the proepicardium and coronary vessels
The International Journal of Developmental Biology, 2008 In the last few years, an increasing interest in progenitor cells has been noted. These cells are a source of undifferentiated elements from which cellular components of tissues and organs develop. Such progenitor tissue delivering stem cells for cardiac development is the proepicardium.
