The Endocardium and Heart Valves

open access: yesCold Spring Harbor Perspectives in Biology, 2020
Endocardial cells are specialized endothelial cells that, during embryogenesis, form a lining on the inside of the developing heart, which is maintained throughout life. Endocardial cells are an essential source for several lineages of the cardiovascular system including coronary endothelium, endocardial cushion mesenchyme, cardiomyocytes, mural cells,

Evaluation of pliable bioresorbable, elastomeric aortic valve prostheses in sheep during 12 months post implantation

open access: yesCommunications Biology, 2023
Pliable microfibrous, bioresorbable elastomeric heart valve prostheses are investigated in search of sustainable heart valve replacement. These cell-free implants recruit cells and trigger tissue formation on the valves in situ. Our aim is to investigate
