Human Cardiac Cell System
Two main types of cardiac primary cells are cardiac fibroblasts and cardiomyocytes. Cardiac fibroblasts as the principal cell type of the heart provide structural support for cardiac myocytes and are responsible for extracellular matrix synthesis in the heart during growth and pathophysiological conditions. Cardiac myocytes are the most physically energetic cells in the body. The contraction of cardiomyocytes is independent of nervous stimulation. Cardiac myocytes have a complex network of signals that regulates their essential role in the rhythmic pumping of the heart. In addition to the two main types of cardiac primary cells, Cells Online also offers aortic endothelial cells, smooth muscle cells, microvascular endothelial cells, valvular interstitial cells etc. for biomedical research and drug discovery.
