Human Induced Pluripotent Stem Cells as a Disease Model System for Heart Failure

Abstract excerpt

PURPOSE OF REVIEW: Heart failure is among the most prevalent disease complexes overall and is associated with high morbidity and mortality. The underlying aetiology is manifold including coronary artery disease, genetic alterations and mutations, viral infections, adverse immune responses, and cardiac toxicity. To date, no specific therapies have been developed despite notable efforts. This can especially be...
