Macrophages enhance contractile force in iPSC-derived human engineered cardiac tissue [PDF]
Summary: Resident cardiac macrophages are critical mediators of cardiac function. Despite their known importance to cardiac electrophysiology and tissue maintenance, there are currently no stem-cell-derived models of human engineered cardiac tissues ...

Electrical stimulation directs engineered cardiac tissue to an age-matched native phenotype
Quantifying structural features of native myocardium in engineered tissue is essential for creating functional tissue that can serve as a surrogate for in vitro testing or the eventual replacement of diseased or injured myocardium.

Maturation is required to model ischemia-reperfusion injury in engineered human cardiac tissues [PDF]
IntroductionMyocardial infarction remains a leading cause of mortality worldwide, with reperfusion therapy as the clinical standard of care. However, its efficacy is limited by the paradoxical injury caused by ischemia-reperfusion (I/R).MethodsMicro ...
