Mesothelium Lecture 9, Slide 1
3 Layers Endocardium Myocardium Epicardium L9, S2
Fibrous Trigone Forms the base of tissue from which the valves are anchored Separates atria from ventricles Atria and ventricle only communicate through the AV bundle L9, S2
DFIACT Adipose Coronary vessels and cardiac nerves Externally lined by mesothelium Simple squamous cells Secrete serous fluid at visceral and parietal pericardium Epicardium L9, S3
M Z I A H L9, S5
Myocardium L9, S4 L9, S6
Inner layer Simple squamous epithelium and CT Elastic lamina Middle layer LACT with smooth muscle Subendocardial layer Purkinje fibers Continuous with myocardium Endocardium L9, S7 Masson’s Trichrome
Purkinje Fibers L9, S11 • Branches of the AV bundle of His • Cardiac muscle modified for conducting impulses • Located in the subendothelium
Hypertrophied cardiac muscle fibers • One or two nuclei centrally situated • Rich in glycogen and mitochondria L9, S12
