The heart transplantation [PDF]
The article reviews history, indication and follow-up after heart transplantation, including the mechanical assist devices. Various complications of posttransplant follow-up are mentioned, e.g. rejection, infection, vasculopathy, meta-bolic disorders, hypertension or malignities. Pharmacotherapy used for immunosuppression is discussed.

Cardiac‐Derived ECM Microspheres for Enhanced hiPSC‐CMs Maturation
Cardiac extracellular matrix microspheres derived from decellularized porcine heart provide a biomimetic 3D microenvironment for human induced pluripotent stem cell–derived cardiomyocytes (hiPSC‐CMs). This platform supports short‐ and long‐term culture, enhances structural organization, and promotes electrophysiological and functional maturation of ...
