Causes of Cor Pulmonale. The lungs depend on the heart to transport blood from the body to the lungs. Pulmonary hypertension is a type of increased pressure in your lungâs arteries and your heartâs right ventricle. This increased pressure causes an ineffective transportation of blood to the lungs. Untreated pulmonary hypertension is the most common cause of cor pulmonale. Other conditions that can cause this health complication include: blood clots in the lungs.
The junction between a motor neuron's axon and the muscle cell membrane is called neuromuscular junction A motor neuron and all of the skeletal muscle cells it stimulates is called a
Photo by: RAJCREATIONZS. Cell junctions can be divided into two types: those that link cells together, also called intercellular junctions (tight, gap, adherens, and desmosomal junctions), and those that link cells to the extracellular matrix (focal contacts/adhesion plaques and hemidesmosomes).ight Junctions. The tight junction (also referred to as a zonula occludens) is a site where the membranes of two cells come very close together. In fact, the outer leaflets of the membranes of the contacting cells appear to be fused.
