Force Measurements of Human Embryonic Stem Cell-Derived Cardiomyocytes in an In Vitro Transplantation Model
14 Sept 2006
Abstract excerpt
Human embryonic stem cell (hESC)-derived cardiomyocytes have been suggested for cardiac cell replacement therapy. However, there are no data on loaded contractions developed by these cells and the regulation thereof. We developed a novel in vitro transplantation model in which beating cardiomyocytes derived from hESCs (line H1) were isolated and transplanted onto noncontractile, ischemically damaged ventricular...
