Cardiomyocytes (Cardiac Muscle Cells) – Structure, Function, …
网页Cardiomyocytes are the true cardiac muscle cells that build up the muscle walls (called myocardium) of both atria (the chambers in which blood enters the heart) and the ventricles (the chambers where blood is collected and pumped out of the heart). These cells can shorten and lengthen their myofibers to create the pumping force of the heart.

What’s in a cardiomyocyte – And how do we make one through ...
网页In this review, we walk through the history of scientific inquiry into cardiomyocytes, and then we examine the core features of cardiomyocytes as detailed in modern definitions. Informed by this, we turn to cardiac reprogramming to analyze the various screening approaches and ultimate factor combinations used in each study.
