Transmission electron microscopic images of the EMTs. A: Representative cardiomyocyte-like cell (small arrow). B: Uniformly distributed
myofilaments (small arrow). C: Z line-like substances, a distinct electron dense material
(small arrow). D and E: Presence of the specialized cell- cell junctions, including
the intercalated disc containing desmosomes (small arrow) and gap junctions (small
arrow), characteristic of connections of heart tissue. F: Typical capillary (open
arrow) composed of endothelial cells (small arrow) and a pericyte (broad arrow) is
observed within the construct.
