Mavacamten Cardiac Myosin Inhibitor: Clinical Applications and Future Perspectives
Mavacamten is a first-in-class, selective allosteric inhibitor of cardiac myosin adenosine triphosphatase (ATPase) that has emerged as a novel therapeutic option for patients with symptomatic hypertrophic obstructive cardiomyopathy (HOCM) who remain refractory to conventional therapy, such as beta-blockers and calcium channel blockers.

Breaking the link between morphology and potency for mESCs
Background In stem cell biology, a long-held structure–function relationship is the domed colony morphology and naïve pluripotency for mouse or human pluripotent stem cells. This link has provided a convenient way to recognize bona fide naïve pluripotent
