Abstract

Aim. Set the terms of occurrence and morphological markers of coronary vessels in the embryonic period of human ontogenesis.

Material and methods. To realize the aim of our work the embryos of human heart from 5 th to 8 th week of prenatal development period were investigated in the amount of 60. The obtained specimens were evaluated by immunohistochemical study. For this purpose, the original monoclonal antibodies have been used, such as transcription factor Prox-1, cell proliferation marker Ki-67, an endothelial marker CD-34 and smooth-muscle actin (α-SMA). To identify the reaction the solution of chromogen 3-diaminobenzidine tetrachloride was applied, which is manifested in a rich brown color in the sensitive cells of the cardiac wall.

Conclusions: The morphological specialization of vascular links of coronary system in the embryonic period has a natural sequence - acquisition of venous properties at first and parallel differentiation of arterial structures. After arteriovenous determination the next phase begins – lymphatic specialization of venous endothelial cells with the formation of lymphatic links of coronary vascular system
