We will study the role of macrophages and particularly analyse a subtype, which accumulates in the outer mesothelial layer of the heart, the epicardium. |
That work involved in effect turning the clock back in a layer of cells on the outside of the heart, called the epicardium, making adult cells think they were embryos again and thereby restarting their ability to repair. |
It has been known that muscle fibers in a heart are arranged in such a way that their orientation changes continuously from endocardium to epicardium of the free wall. |
An echocardiogram showed that the tip of the pacemaker catheter extended through the right ventricular apical wall of the epicardium. |
Additional conduction delay from endocardium to epicardium then moves the J wave out of the QRS complex. |
Coronary vessels supplying arterial blood to the heart penetrate the epicardium before entering the myocardium. |
