Development of the Endocardium [PDF]
The endocardium, the endothelial lining of the heart, plays complex and critical roles in heart development, particularly in the formation of the cardiac valves and septa, the division of the truncus arteriosus into the aortic and pulmonary trunks, the ...

Endocardium Contributes to Cardiac Fat [PDF]
Rationale: Unraveling the developmental origin of cardiac fat could offer important implications for the treatment of cardiovascular disease. The recent identification of the mesothelial source of epicardial fat tissues reveals a heterogeneous origin of adipocytes in the adult heart.

Haemogenic endocardium contributes to transient definitive haematopoiesis. [PDF]
Haematopoietic cells arise from spatiotemporally restricted domains in the developing embryo. Although studies of non-mammalian animal and in vitro embryonic stem cell models suggest a close relationship among cardiac, endocardial and haematopoietic ...

Endocardium gives rise to blood cells in zebrafish embryos
Summary: Previous studies have suggested that the endocardium contributes to hematopoiesis in murine embryos, although definitive evidence to demonstrate the hematopoietic potential of the endocardium is still missing.

TELOCYTES IN ENDOCARDIUM: Electron Microscope Evidence [PDF]
AbstractThe term TELOCYTES was very recently introduced, for replacing the name Interstitial Cajal‐Like Cells (ICLC). In fact, telocytes are not really Cajal‐like cells, they being different from all other interstitial cells by the presence of telopodes, which are cell‐body prolongations, very thin (under the resolving power of light microscopy ...

Endocardial Regulation of Cardiac Development
The endocardium is a specialized form of endothelium that lines the inner side of the heart chambers and plays a crucial role in cardiac development.

Summary: In the zebrafish embryo, the onset of blood flow generates fluid shear stress on endocardial cells, which are specialized endothelial cells that line the interior of the heart.

Background: The atrium of the juvenile teleost, smallmouth bass, Micropterus dolomieu Lacépède showed a pigmented endocardium. Our goal was to use fine structure to survey this fish heart tissues and verify the content responsible for this shrouding and ...

Dissecting the Complexity of Early Heart Progenitor Cells
Early heart development depends on the coordinated participation of heterogeneous cell sources. As pioneer work from Adriana C. Gittenberger-de Groot demonstrated, characterizing these distinct cell sources helps us to understand congenital heart defects.

Reprogramming the Endocardium [PDF]
Normal cardiac function is heavily dependent on effective coronary circulation. Coronary perfusion abnormalities, congenital or, much more commonly, acquired, are the leading cause of cardiovascular morbidity and mortality. Despite many advances in our understanding of fundamentals of heart and blood vessel biology, therapeutic options for patients ...
