Functional characterisation of human iPSC-derived atrial cardiomyocytes

Poster Description

Atrial fibrillation (AF) is the most common arrhythmia observed in the clinic, considerable effort has been made to identify the cellular mechanisms of AF and develop new safe and effective antiarrhythmic drugs(1). However, preclinical studies using non-cardiac cells and non-human animal models may not replicate the physiology of human atrial cardiomyocytes or predict patient efficacy and safety.

Here we outline our results from studies to validate human induced pluripotent stem cell-derived atrial cardiomyocytes (hiPSC-ACMs) generated by Axol Bioscience.
