The endomysium meaning within the muscle is a wispy layer of areolar connective tissue that ensheaths each individual muscle fiber. It also contains capillaries and nerves. It overlies the muscle fiber’s cell membrane: the sarcolemma. The term cardiac skeleton is sometimes considered synonymous with endomysium but sometimes cardiac skeleton refers to the combination of the endomysium and perimysium.Anti-endomysial antibodies (EMA) are present in celiac disease.
