Cardiac Fibroblast-Derived Extracellular Matrix (Biomatrix) as a Model for the Studies of Cardiac Primitive Cell Biological Properties in Normal and Pathological Adult Human Heart

Figure 1

Biomatrix synthesis. Fibroblasts isolated from samples of adult human heart were cultured in confluent state allowing for ECM deposition in vitro. Representative image obtained by immunofluorescent labelling of actin filaments (red), cell nuclei (blue), and fibronectin (green).
