Cite This Study

Popescu et al. (2009) studied Normal adult mice. Transmission electron microscopy was evaluated on Ultrastructural description of cardiac stem cell niches (CSCN). Transmission electron microscopy of normal adult mice myocardium revealed cardiac stem cell niches containing interstitial Cajal-like cells that appear to nurse cardiomyocyte progenitors.
