Part of the book series: Advances in Experimental Medicine and Biology ((AEMB,volume 346))

Abstract

The nature of modulation of myocardial performance by the endocardial endothelium (EE) is briefly described. Possible mechanisms of this modulation include a physical barrier effect, the release of various chemical messengers and a transendothelial physicochemical barrier.
