Annotation rationales
Heart-remodeling endothelial cells are cardiac vascular cells displaying an activated structural and angiocrine identity associated with adaptation or repair.
Functional implications
They reorganize the cardiac microvasculature, support cardiomyocytes and mural cells, and regulate leukocyte access and matrix remodeling during cardiac stress.
