41. HSPB6 has specific functions for vasodilation, platelet function, and insulin resistance and in smooth and cardiac muscle . 42. ANH, on the other hand, is released by cardiac muscle cells in response to high blood volume. 43. Cardiac muscle is often treated separately from the other striated muscles, as it has somewhat different characteristics.44. It is the tropomyosin-binding and thin filament anchoring subunit of the troponin complex in cardiac muscle cells. 45. The walls of the right ventricle are lined with trabeculae carneae, ridges of cardiac muscle covered by endocardium. 46. The heart may fibrillate at first this occurs because the cardiac muscle fibres are not contracting synchronously. 47. Evolutionarily, specialized forms of skeletal and cardiac muscles predated the divergence of the vertebrate / arthropod evolutionary line. 48. It is the predominant TnI isoform expressed in both slow skeletal muscle and cardiac muscle in early embryonic stage. 49. The striated appearance of both skeletal and cardiac muscle results from the regular pattern of sarcomeres within their cells. 50. In other experiments, researchers have transformed embryonic stem cells into the cells of cardiac muscle , cartilage, bone and skin.
