Electro-mechanical conditioning of human iPSC-derived cardiomyocytes for translational research

The new methodology is a simple and elegant technique to systematically investigate and manipulate cardiomyocyte remodelling for translational applications. In the present study, we adjusted critical parameters to optimize a regimen for hiPSC-CM transformation. In the future, this technology will open up new avenues for electro-mechanical stimulation by allowing temporal and spatial control of stimuli which can be easily scaled up in complexity for cardiac development and disease modelling.
