Base editing correction of hypertrophic cardiomyopathy in human cardiomyocytes and humanized mice. [PDF]
Adenine base editing successfully corrected a MYH7 pathogenic variant that causes hypertrophic cardiomyopathy in human cardiomyocytes and a mouse model of the disease, highlighting the potential of the approach to correct monogenic variants causing ...

Spike Protein Impairs Mitochondrial Function in Human Cardiomyocytes: Mechanisms Underlying Cardiac Injury in COVID-19. [PDF]
Background: COVID-19 has a major impact on cardiovascular diseases and may lead to myocarditis or cardiac failure. The clove-like spike (S) protein of SARS-CoV-2 facilitates its transmission and pathogenesis.

A modified method for isolation of human cardiomyocytes to model cardiac diseases
Background Cardiomyocytes derived from animals and induced pluripotent stem cells (iPSCs) are two main cellular models to study cardiovascular diseases, however, neither provides precise modeling of the response of mature human cardiomyocytes to disease ...

SNTA1-deficient human cardiomyocytes demonstrate hypertrophic phenotype and calcium handling disorder [PDF]
Background α-1-syntrophin (SNTA1), a protein encoded by SNTA1, is highly expressed in human cardiomyocytes. Mutations in SNTA1 are associated with arrhythmia and cardiomyopathy. Previous research on SNTA1 has been based on non-human cardiomyocytes.

Generation of mature compact ventricular cardiomyocytes from human pluripotent stem cells
Cardiomyocytes of heart ventricles consist of subpopulations of trabecular and compact subtypes. Here the authors describe the generation of structurally, metabolically and functionally mature compact ventricular cardiomyocytes as well as mature atrial ...

Modeling Human Cardiac Hypertrophy in Stem Cell-Derived Cardiomyocytes
Summary: Cardiac hypertrophy accompanies many forms of cardiovascular diseases. The mechanisms behind the development and regulation of cardiac hypertrophy in the human setting are poorly understood, which can be partially attributed to the lack of a ...
