CLINICAL MEASUREMENT - ANNOTATIONS

The Clinical Measurement Ontology (CMO), Measurement Methods Ontology (MMO), and Experimental Condition Ontology (XCO) are currently being developed at the Rat Genome Database.

Accession:CMO:0003658 term browser browse the term
Definition:The average number of capillaries associated with and/or surrounding an individual cardiac muscle fiber, a cylindrical multinucleate cell of cardiac muscle tissue containing contracting myofibrils. Capillaries are the minute vessels connecting arterioles and venules, the walls of which act as a semipermeable membrane for interchange of various substances between the blood and tissue fluid.
Synonyms:exact_synonym: number of capillaries per cardiac muscle fiber
