Epicardial cell lineages and the origin of the coronary endothelium
18 Feb 2020
Abstract excerpt
Abstract The embryonic epicardium generates a population of epicardial‐derived mesenchymal cells (EPDC) whose contribution to the coronary endothelium is minor or, according to some reports, negligible. We have compared four murine cell‐tracing models related to the EPDC in order to elucidate this contribution. Cre recombinase was expressed under control of the promoters of the Wilms' tumor suppressor ( Wt1 ),...
