Background Most infarctions occur in the left anterior descending coronary artery and cause myocardium damage of the left ventricle. Although current pluripotent stem cells (PSCs) and directed cardiac differentiation techniques are able to generate fetal-

Evaluation of proarrhythmic properties is critical for drug discovery. In particular, QT prolongation in electrocardiograms has been utilized as a surrogate marker in many evaluation systems to assess the risk of torsade de pointes and lethal ventricular

Cardiomyocyte Regeneration in Human Myocarditis
Background : Newly generated cardiomyocytes (NGC) concur to recovery of human myocarditis. However, Methods: We retrospectively assessed NGC in 213 consecutive patients with endomyocardial biopsy denoting acute myocarditis, with normal coronaries and valves.

Dating the Heart: Exploring Cardiomyocyte Renewal in Humans [PDF]
Regenerative mechanisms reported in the hearts of lower vertebrates have been recapitulated in the mammalian milieu, and recent studies have provided strong evidence for cardiomyocyte turnover in humans. These findings speak to an emerging consensus that adult mammalian cardiomyocytes do have the ability to divide, and it stands to reason that ...

Differentiation of Cardiomyocytes from Human Pluripotent Stem Cells Using Monolayer Culture
Human pluripotent stem cells (PSCs) are a promising cell source for cardiac tissue engineering and cell-based therapies for heart repair because they can be expanded in vitro and differentiated into most cardiovascular cell types, including ...

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.

Background: Our research team analyzed the microRNA (miRNA)-197-3p involved in cardioprotection, and we demonstrated that the overexpression of miRNA-197-3p could be linked to a higher risk of cardiac damage.

Contribution of bone marrow-derived hematopoietic stem/progenitor cells to the generation of donor-marker⁺ cardiomyocytes in vivo. [PDF]
BACKGROUND: Definite identification of the cell types and the mechanism relevant to cardiomyogenesis is essential for effective cardiac regenerative medicine.

Stimulation of Cardiomyocyte Proliferation Is Dependent on Species and Level of Maturation
The heart is one of the least regenerative organs. This is in large part due to the inability of adult mammalian cardiomyocytes to proliferate and divide.

Centrosome Reduction Promotes Terminal Differentiation of Human Cardiomyocytes [PDF]
Centrosome reduction and redistribution of pericentriolar material (PCM) coincides with cardiomyocyte transitions to a post-mitotic and matured state. However, it is unclear whether centrosome changes are a cause or consequence of terminal differentiation.
