pubmed:abstractText
The development of the ventricular conducting tissue of the embryonic chicken heart has been studied using a previous finding that morphologically recognizable atrial conducting tissue coexpresses the atrial and the ventricular myosin isoforms. It is found that, by these criteria, at 9 days part of the ventricular conduction system consists of a myocardial ring located around the infundibula of the aorta and truncus pulmonalis. Part of this ring is formed by the retro-aortic root branch. The ring continues via the septal branch into the atrioventricular bundle and its branches, that all express both myosin isoforms. The retro-aortic root branch could be traced back as a part of the myocardial wall of the truncus arteriosus at the 4 days embryonic stage. At the 16th day of development, the septal branch, atrioventricular bundle and left and right bundle branches no longer express the atrial isomyosin, but two bundles originating from the septal branch still express both isomyosins, one being the retro-aortic root branch, the other being only immunologically recognizable and directed to the ventral side of the truncus pulmonalis; this latter we call the pulmonary root branch. Both bundles are remnants of the myocardial ring.
