Outrageously Funny Word Dictionary :: Endotheliocyte

👉 In the context of cell biology, an "endothelial cell" is a type of cell that serves as a barrier or lining in the blood vessels. These cells are responsible for maintaining the integrity and function of blood vessels by secreting substances like platelets and fibrinogen into the bloodstream to clot and stop bleeding. They also play a role in the formation of blood clots, which can be harmful if not properly controlled.
