Dynamic culture yields engineered myocardium with near-adult functional output [PDF]

open access: yesBiomaterials, 2016
Engineered cardiac tissues hold promise for cell therapy and drug development, but exhibit inadequate function and maturity. In this study, we sought to significantly improve the function and maturation of rat and human engineered cardiac tissues. We developed dynamic, free-floating culture conditions for engineering "cardiobundles", 3-dimensional ...
