Endothelium and valvular diseases of the heart

Microscopy Research and Technique, 2003
AbstractIt has become increasingly evident that the endothelium plays a critical role in the pathogenesis of valvular heart disease. The endothelium helps regulate vascular tone, inflammation, thrombosis, and vascular remodeling. Dysfunction of the endothelial cells has been linked to many vascular disorders including atherosclerosis.
