Living myocardial slices as a model for testing cardiac pro-reparative gene therapies

Abstract excerpt

Available models currently adopted for preclinical studies in the cardiovascular field either fail to recapitulate human cardiac physiology or are extremely expensive and time-consuming. Translational research would greatly benefit from the development of novel models that reflect the native mature phenotype of the human heart while being cost and time effective. Living myocardial slices (LMSs) have emerged as a...
