Abstract excerpt
In vitro models that recapitulate key aspects of native tissue architecture and the physical microenvironment are emerging systems for modeling development and disease. For example, the myocardium consists of layers of aligned and coupled cardiac myocytes that are interspersed with supporting cells and embedded in a compliant extracellular matrix (ECM). These cell-cell and cell-matrix interactions are known to be...
