The pulmonary endothelial cell

The pulmonary endothelial cell

D Heath et al. Thorax. 1979 Apr.

Abstract

The surface of the endothelial cells of the pulmonary trunk of the Wistar albino rat was studied by means of silver preparations and by scanning and transmission electron microscopy. This surface is the site of cytoplasmic projections and the opening of caveolae which together appear to be features associated with the active metabolic rôle of the pulmonary endothelial cell.
