     Evaluation Summary:

     This study investigates the relationships of endothelial cells that comprise the coronary vessels of the heart in mouse and humans. Starting from the knowledge that two sources of progenitor cells contribute to the coronary vessels, the work shows that adult coronary endothelial cells do not retain expression memory of their source, nor do they respond differently to cardiac injury. Finally, human datasets were generated and compared to mouse to show overall strong similarity between the species in coronary endothelial cell subtypes, suggesting that mouse is a relevant model for translation to human treatments and therapies.
