Bioengineering Approaches to Mature Human Pluripotent Stem Cell-Derived Cardiomyocytes
Human pluripotent stem cell-derived cardiomyocytes (hPSC-CM) represent a potential unlimited cell supply for cardiac tissue engineering and possibly regenerative medicine applications.

Cre-loxP-mediated genetic lineage tracing: Unraveling cell fate and origin in the developing heart
The Cre-loxP-mediated genetic lineage tracing system is essential for constructing the fate mapping of single-cell progeny or cell populations. Understanding the structural hierarchy of cardiac progenitor cells facilitates unraveling cell fate and origin

Transplantation of cryopreserved cardiomyocytes [PDF]
The present study examined the survival and rate of contraction of (1) cardiomyocytes cultured from cryopreserved fetal rat myocardium and (2) cryopreserved cultured cardiomyocytes. In addition, the effects of transplantation of cryopreserved fetal cardiomyocytes were evaluated.Segments of fetal rat myocardial tissue (0.2, 2.0, and 6.0 mm(3) mince size)

Reprogramming Fibroblasts into Cardiomyocytes [PDF]
The transdifferentiation of one differentiated cell type into another is the focus of much research activity. A recent study shows that mouse fibroblasts can be transdifferentiated, albeit with low efficiency, into cardiomyocytes.

Sgk1-Dependent Stimulation of Cardiac Na+/H+ Exchanger Nhe1 by Dexamethasone
Background/Aims: The serum- and glucocorticoid-inducible kinase Sgk1 contributes to cardiac remodeling and development of heart failure, which is paralelled by Sgk1-dependent stimulation of the cardiac Na+/H+ exchanger Nhe1.

Myocardin Induces Cardiomyocyte Hypertrophy [PDF]
In response to stress signals, postnatal cardiomyocytes undergo hypertrophic growth accompanied by activation of a fetal gene program, assembly of sarcomeres, and cellular enlargement. We show that hypertrophic signals stimulate the expression and transcriptional activity of myocardin, a cardiac and smooth muscle–specific coactivator of serum response ...

MicroRNA-Mediated Direct Reprogramming of Human Adult Fibroblasts Toward Cardiac Phenotype
Modulation of microRNA expression holds the promise to achieve direct reprogramming of fibroblasts into cardiomyocyte-like cells as a new strategy for myocardial regeneration after ischemic heart disease.

Cardiomyocyte Cell Cycle Regulation [PDF]
Although rapid progress is being made in many areas of molecular cardiology, issues pertaining to the origins of heart-forming cells, the mechanisms responsible for cardiogenic induction, and the pathways that regulate cardiomyocyte proliferation during embryonic and adult life remain unanswered.

Background/Objectives: Stimulation of glucose uptake in response to ischemic stress is important for cardiomyocyte post-ischemic function and survival. In the diabetic myocardium chronically exposed to an excess of circulating lipids, this mechanism is ...

Experimental review of cobalt induced cardiomyopathy
The heart is a target of injury for many chemical compounds, both medically prescribed and not. Pathophysiological mechanisms underlying development of chemical-induced cardiomyopathies vary depending on the inciting agent, and can include: direct toxic ...
