Regeneration: is the process by which lost or damaged tissues, organs or limbs are re-formed from the remaining tissue. During regeneration, adult stem cells and/or progenitor cells differentiate to replace the missing tissue, although in some instances differentiated cells can also participate in the regeneration by proliferation or transdifferentiation.
Embryonic epicardium is crucial for normal heart morphogenesis. The tissue originates from the proepicardial organ, with cells migrating to form the outer mesothelial layer, giving rise to n...
