Any process that mediates the transfer of information from mesodermal cells to endodermal cells that contributes to heart induction. The commitment of cells to specific cell fates and their capacity to differentiate into particular kinds of cells. Positional information is established through protein signals that emanate from a localized source within a cell (the initial one-cell zygote) or within a developmental field. Any process that mediates the transfer of information from mesodermal cells to endodermal cells. Signaling at long or short range between cells that results in the commitment of a cell to a certain fate. Any process that mediates the transfer of information from one cell to another. The process by which a specific region of the lateral mesoderm is delineated into the area in which the heart will develop. The interaction of two or more cells or tissues that causes them to change their fates and specify the development of an organ. The close range interaction between mesoderm and endoderm or ectoderm that causes cells to change their fates and specify the development of the heart.
