Cardiac Progenitor Cells from Stem Cells: Learning from Genetics and Biomaterials (2019)
Journal Article
Barreto, S., Hamel, L., Schiatti, T., Yang, Y., & George, V. (2019). Cardiac Progenitor Cells from Stem Cells: Learning from Genetics and Biomaterials. Cells, 8(12), https://doi.org/10.3390/cells8121536

Cardiac Progenitor Cells (CPCs) show great potential as a cell resource for restoring cardiac function in patients affected by heart disease or heart failure. CPCs are proliferative and committed to cardiac fate, capable of generating cells of all th... Read More about Cardiac Progenitor Cells from Stem Cells: Learning from Genetics and Biomaterials.

Cardiomyocytes (CMs) derived from human induced pluripotent stem cells (hiPSCs) are now a well-established modality for modeling genetic disorders of the heart. This is especially so for long QT syndrome (LQTS), which is caused by perturbation of ion...

Automated Electrophysiological and Pharmacological Evaluation of Human Pluripotent Stem Cell-Derived Cardiomyocytes. Stem Cells and Development, 25(6), 439-452. https://doi.org/10.1089/scd.2015.0253

Automated planar patch clamp systems are widely used in drug evaluation studies because of their ability to provide accurate, reliable, and reproducible data in a high-throughput manner. Typically, CHO and HEK tumorigenic cell lines overexpressing si...
