Term Name: cardioblast differentiation
Synonyms: cardiac precursor cell differentiation, cardioblast cell differentiation, cardiomyocyte generation
Definition: The process in which a relatively unspecialized mesodermal cell acquires the specialized structural and/or functional features of a cardioblast. A cardioblast is a cardiac precursor cell. It is a cell that has been committed to a cardiac fate, but will undergo more cell division rather than terminally differentiating.
