In silico predictions of drug-induced changes in human cardiac contractility align with experimental recordings

Frontiers in Pharmacology
Drug-induced changes in cardiac contractility (inotropy) can lead to cardiotoxicity, a major cause of discontinuation in drug development. Preclinical approaches to assess cardiac inotropy are imperfect, with in vitro assays limited to stem cell-derived ...

Functional Characterization of Human Stem Cell–Derived Cardiomyocytes [PDF]

Current Protocols in Pharmacology, 2000
AbstractCardiac toxicity is a leading contributor to late stage attrition in the drug discovery process and to withdrawal of approved drugs from the market. In vitro assays that enable earlier and more accurate testing for cardiac risk provide early stage predictive indicators that aid in mitigating risk.

Microfluidic Modeling of Macrophage‐Induced Cardiac Inflammation Using NF‐κB Reporter Cardiomyocytes

Advanced Healthcare Materials, EarlyView.
A cardiac inflammation model was developed to enable real‐time analysis of macrophage‐cardiomyocyte interactions using NF‐κB‐reporter cardiomyocytes and a microfluidic co‐culture system. A MATLAB‐based model was implemented to optimize cell density and medium resupply based on TNFα diffusion kinetics. Activation thresholds and stress responses in NF‐κB‐

Preliminary Study of a Ninj1‐Loaded Bimodal Ultrasound/NIR Fluorescence Targeted Molecular Probe for Diagnosing Early‐Stage Inflammation in Coronary Microvascular Dysfunction

Advanced Healthcare Materials, EarlyView.
Coronary microvascular dysfunction (CMD) targeting remains a challenge for precise diagnosis. This work presents a dual‐modal nanoprobe (T‐IR780‐NBs) that combines ultrasound contrast with near‐infrared fluorescence. This technology utilizes proteomics‐derived antibodies that specifically localize to inflamed and injured cardiac tissue, enabling ...
