Simple squamous epithelium which lines blood and lymphatic vessels and the heart[FMA] The term 'endothelium' has been either restricted to the continuous cell layer of the vertebrates, as we are assuming here, or applied to all the cells able to adhere to the luminal surface of the vascular basement membrane (Casley-Smith 1980) |
