The Formin FHOD1 in Cardiomyocytes [PDF]
ABSTRACTMembers of the formin family are known to be involved in the regulation of the actin cytoskeleton. We have recently identified a muscle specific splice variant of the formin FHOD3 and demonstrated its role in the maintenance of the contractile filaments of cardiomyocytes.

The role of bone marrow derived cells in cardiac repair [PDF]
PhDCurrent pharmacological therapies fail to address the final end-point of cardiac ischaemia — the death and dysfunction of cardiomyocytes. Advances in stem cell biology have provided hope, for the first time, of addressing this underlying pathology.

Cardiomyocyte Regeneration [PDF]
The heart was initially believed to be a terminally differentiated organ; once the cardiomyocytes died, no recovery could be made to replace the dead cells. However, around a decade ago, the concept of cardiac stem cells (CSCs) in adult hearts was proposed. CSCs differentiate into cardiomyocytes, keeping the heart functioning.

Wang et al. Supplementary Files_DMD iPSC-cardiomyocytes
The DMD iPSCs were differentiated into beating cardiomyocytes following the protocol for cardiac lineage differentiation based on a stepwise supplementation of iPSC medium with specific small molecules (Campostrini et al. 2021 Nat. Protoc., 16, 2213-2256.

Requirements for human cardiomyocytes [PDF]
Abstract‘Requirements for human cardiomyocytes', jointly drafted and agreed upon by experts from the Chinese Society for Stem Cell Research, is the first guideline for human cardiomyocytes in China. This standard specifies the technical requirements, test methods, test regulations, instructions for use, labelling requirements, packing requirements ...

Dyadic Plasticity in Cardiomyocytes [PDF]
Contraction of cardiomyocytes is dependent on sub-cellular structures called dyads, where invaginations of the surface membrane (t-tubules) form functional junctions with the sarcoplasmic reticulum (SR). Within each dyad, Ca2+ entry through t-tubular L-type Ca2+ channels (LTCCs) elicits Ca2+ release from closely apposed Ryanodine Receptors (RyRs) in ...

Reactivation of the mitosis-promoting factor in postmitotic cardiomyocytes [PDF]
Cardiomyocytes cease to divide shortly after birth and an irreversible cell cycle arrest is evident accompanied by the downregulation of cyclin-dependent kinase activities.

Mena/VASP and αII-Spectrin complexes regulate cytoplasmic actin networks in cardiomyocytes and protect from conduction abnormalities and dilated cardiomyopathy [PDF]
BACKGROUND: In the heart, cytoplasmic actin networks are thought to have important roles in mechanical support, myofibrillogenesis, and ion channel function.

Exercise training corrects control of spontaneous calcium waves in hearts from myocardial infarction heart failure rats [PDF]
Impaired cardiac control of intracellular diastolic Ca<sup>2+</sup> gives rise to arrhythmias. Whereas exercise training corrects abnormal cyclic Ca<sup>2+</sup> handling in heart failure, the effect on diastolic Ca<sup>2 ...

Slow Turning Lateral Vessel Bioreactor Improves Embryoid Body Formation and Cardiogenic Differentiation of Mouse Embryonic Stem Cells. [PDF]
Embryonic stem cells (ESCs) have the ability to form aggregates, which are called embryoid bodies (EBs). EBs mimic early embryonic development and are commonly produced for cardiomyogenesis.
