Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
Endothelial cells are a major component of the developing and adult heart. Besides its classical role as a transport system, the cardiac endothelium (vascular and endocardial) has gained increasing attention in recent years as a key regulator of cardiac morphogenesis, pathogenesis, repair, and regeneration. For this Special Issue of the Journal of Cardiovascular Development and Disease (JCDD), we welcome contributions focused on the crosstalk between the cardiac endothelium and the different cardiac components including (but not limited to) the epicardium, fibroblasts, nerves, immune cells, cardiomyocytes, the valve mesenchyme, and the extracellular matrix.
