Abstract excerpt
BACKGROUND: Human induced pluripotent stem cells (hiPSCs) and their derivative cardiomyocytes (hiPSC-CMs) have been successfully used to study the electrical phenotype of cardiac ion channel diseases. However, strategies to mature CMs and more comprehensive systems recapitulating the heart complexity are required to advance our ability to capture adult phenotypes. METHODS: We differentiated wild-type (WT) and...
