Branchial hearts are myogenic accessory pumps found in coleoid cephalopods that supplement the action of the main, systemic heart.〔Fiedler, A. & R. Schipp (1987). The role of the branchial heart complex in circulation of coleoid cephalopods. ''Cellular and Molecular Life Sciences'' 43(5): 544–553. 〕 Each consists of a single chamber and they are always paired, being located at the base of the gills.〔〔(Cephalopoda Glossary ). Tree of Life web project.〕 They pump blood through the gills via the afferent branchial veins. Since they only circulate venous blood, branchial hearts function under predominantly anaerobic conditions.〔 Branchial hearts also appear to be involved in hemocyanin synthesis.〔Beuerlein, K., R. Schimmelpfennig, B. Westermann, P. Ruth & R. Schipp (1998). Cytobiological studies on hemocyanin metabolism in the branchial heart complex of the common cuttlefish ''Sepia officinalis'' (Cephalopoda, Dibranchiata). ''Cell and Tissue Research'' 292(3): 587–595. 〕〔 Each branchial heart is directly connected to a branchial heart appendage or pericardial gland.〔Witmer, A. & A.W. Martin (1973). The fine structure of the branchial heart appendage of the cephalopod ''Octopus dofleini martini''. ''Cell and Tissue Research'' 136(4): 545–568. 〕 The action of the branchial hearts is necessary for the production of primary urine in these appendages via pressure filtration.〔Schipp, R., H.R. Schmidt & A. Fiedler (1986). Comparative cytochemical and pharmacological studies on the cholinergic innervation of the branchial heart of the cephalopod ''Sepia officinalis'' (L.). ''Cellular and Molecular Life Sciences'' 42(1): 23–30. 〕 Branchial hearts may have evolved from the pericardial glands of nautiloids, such as those still found in modern nautiluses.〔Bourne, G.B., J.R. Redmond & K. Johansen (1977). ''Nautilus pompilius'': branchial circulation enhanced by an auxiliary pumping mechanism. ''Cellular and Molecular Life Sciences'' 33(11): 1453. 〕 ==References==
